The Alternative to German Electric Radiators

The Alternative to German Electric Radiators

If you’re considering installing a highly efficient electric radiators, you’ve likely come across German radiator brands multiple times. However, it’s important to note that there are alternatives to German radiators available in the UK market.

The sole Modern Storage Radiator made in Britain is crafted by Trust Electric Heating, and it draws inspiration from German radiators. Our customers not only praise our products as excellent replacements for their old heating systems but also as highly energy efficient ones. You can read their testimonials here: Trust Electric Heating Reviews.

So, if you’re interested in electric radiators for a space in your home that closely resembles the German brand, incorporates a storage element, is cost effective, affordable, and stylish, we have the perfect solution.

Electric Radiators- Cutting-Edge Technology

Creating convection heat

Unlike German electric radiators, our UK-made NEOS electric radiator stands out with its modern design and unique front-to-rear panel design. German electric radiators will typically have identical front and back panels. What truly sets us apart is our internationally patented Quadvex technology, which minimises heat loss to the floor and rear wall.

To discover more about the advantages of the NEOS proprietary back wall radiator technology, you can refer to the report conducted by our Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) with the University of Huddersfield: NEOS Radiator Technology Report.

Innovative Storage Core

Instead of radiators using a traditional ceramic clay core (chamotte), the NEOS electric radiator employs soapstone, a volcanic rock with a history of thousands of years in cooking and heating and is able to retain heat well. Thanks to its robustness and exceptional heat-absorbing properties without burning or melting, our advanced soapstone technology enables our radiators to provide at least 30 minutes every hour with heat without consuming energy. Let’s delve into the advantages of soapstone radiators:

  1. High Heat Capacity: Soapstone absorbs and retains heat for extended periods, maintaining a consistent room temperature without excessive electricity usage.

  2. Durability: Soapstone can withstand high temperatures without cracking, offering the NEOS radiator a remarkable 25-year guarantee.

  3. Non-Porous: Its water-repellent properties prevent cracking and breakage, a feature not found in other stones, further enhancing its heat retention capabilities.

  4. Energy Efficiency: Soapstone retains heat effectively even after the power is off, reducing electricity usage and heating costs.

We’re so confident in the quality and efficiency of our soapstone’s heating abilities that we offer a 100-day warmth trial. If it doesn’t meet your expectations, we’ll upgrade or replace the radiators free of charge.

Distinct Radiator Casing

Notably, our soapstone core sets us apart from German electric radiators. Our wall mounted electric radiators are constructed from aluminium, whereas German electric radiators are typically made from mild steel. Aluminium, as a material, boasts significantly higher conductivity, being 290% more efficient at conducting heat than mild steel, which is commonly used in German electric radiators. While steel has a thermal conductivity of 10.1 x 10^6 Siemens/m, aluminium boasts 36.9 x 10^6 Siemens/m. In simple terms, mild steel retains heat while aluminium dissipates it effectively.

Dedicated Research and Development

When it comes to our electric heating system, we prioritise the quality through ongoing research and development, collaborating with the University of Huddersfield to conduct extensive testing on the NEOS radiator in their laboratory. Our Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) with the University ensures continuous innovation, quality and product refinement.
