00 / The brief
Choose the heating response that matches how the space is occupied.
A holiday property used on weekends needs a different response from a bedroom heated every evening. Wattage alone does not describe comfort, control or running pattern.
1–4 wks
Electric heat is simple only after the room load and the electrical load have both been calculated.
We compare heat loss, operating hours, wall space and controls, then schedule each unit with its output and electrical requirement for the installer.

02 / The range
What we carry in electric heating appliances
The ranges differ in how they deliver heat and how fast. Electric radiators store warmth in a fluid or a heavy core and release it evenly; convectors warm the air within minutes; infrared panels heat people and surfaces directly; towel rails dry towels and take the chill off a bathroom. Choose by how many hours a day the room is used, then size the output room by room.

01
Electric radiators
An electric radiator gives a room steady, even warmth that lingers after the thermostat clicks off, which suits living rooms and bedrooms used for long evenings. Fluid-filled and dry-element models both store heat in their body, so the air temperature swings less than with a fast convector. Fixed electric heaters sold in the EU fall under the Ecodesign rules for local space heaters (Regulation 2015/1188, often called Lot 20), which in practice means an electronic thermostat with a weekly programme is now standard on a compliant wall-mounted model.
- Even, lasting warmth with little air movement
- Weekly programming keeps rooms warm only when used
- Slim wall units that sit under a window or on a pier
Terms you will meet
- Thermal inertia
- How long the radiator body keeps giving off heat once the element switches off; more inertia means gentler temperature swings.
- Ecodesign Lot 20
- The EU efficiency rules for local space heaters that require fixed electric models to carry electronic room control and timing.
- Open-window detection
- A control feature that notices a sudden temperature drop, pauses heating while the window is open and resumes when it closes.
- Best for
- Living rooms, bedrooms and homes heated for many hours each day
- Formats
- Typically 500–2,000 W, heights around 450–650 mm, lengths by output
When it fits
Choose an electric radiator when the room is lived in for long stretches and you want warmth without draughts.
When it does not
Look at a convector if the room is used for an hour or two and needs heat as soon as you walk in.
02
Convectors & thermoconvectors
A convector warms a cold room in minutes and costs little to buy, which makes it the practical answer for spare rooms, offices and holiday homes used in bursts. Air passes over the element, rises and draws cooler air in behind it, so the room warms quickly but cools quickly too. Most wall convectors are Class II double-insulated, and many are rated IP24 for use in the outer bathroom zones; check both on the plate when the room is damp or the wiring has no earth.
- Heat within minutes of switching on
- Light units that hang on a wall or stand on feet
- Low purchase cost for rooms used now and then
Terms you will meet
- Class II appliance
- Double-insulated so that it does not rely on an earth connection for safety; marked with a square inside a square.
- Pilot wire
- An extra control conductor, common on French-made convectors, that lets one central programmer switch every heater between comfort and economy modes.
- Overheat cut-out
- A safety device that switches the element off if the air outlet is blocked or the casing gets too hot.
- Best for
- Guest rooms, offices, studios and holiday homes used intermittently
- Formats
- Typically 500–2,500 W, low-level, standard or slim-height bodies
When it fits
Choose a convector when the room is heated for short periods and a fast response matters more than lingering warmth.
When it does not
Look at an electric radiator or a heat pump if the room is heated all day through the winter.
03
Infrared panels
Infrared panels make you feel warm without heating the whole volume of air, and they disappear on a wall or into a ceiling grid. They radiate heat onto people, floors and furniture, much as winter sun through a window does, so a room can feel comfortable at a lower air temperature. Placement decides the result: a panel aimed at the sofa or desk does far more than one hidden behind a wardrobe. Panels suit tall rooms, stone houses and terraces under cover, where warm air would rise or blow away.
- Warmth felt directly, even with high ceilings
- Flat panels that read as a mirror, picture or ceiling tile
- No air movement, so less dust carried round the room
Terms you will meet
- Operative temperature
- The temperature you actually feel, combining air temperature with the warmth radiated by the surfaces around you.
- Surface temperature
- How hot the panel face gets in use; it decides how close people can sit and whether a guard is needed in children's rooms.
- Ceiling-grid panel
- An infrared panel sized to drop into a standard suspended-ceiling grid instead of a mineral tile.
- Best for
- High-ceilinged rooms, stone houses, studios and covered terraces
- Formats
- Typically 300–1,200 W; about 60×60, 60×120 cm and 595×595 mm ceiling-grid panels
When it fits
Choose infrared when you need warmth where people sit, especially in tall or draughty spaces.
When it does not
Look at radiators or underfloor heating if the room must hold an even air temperature in every corner.
04
Electric towel rails
An electric towel rail gives you warm, dry towels every morning and keeps a small bathroom from feeling damp, without running the whole heating system. Dry-element rails heat up quickly; fluid-filled ones stay warm longer. Dual-fuel rails connect to the central-heating pipes and carry an element for summer use. Inside the bathroom, placement follows the zones of the wiring rules, and a unit installed near the bath or shower should carry at least IPX4 and a fixed connection made by the electrician.
- Dry towels and a warmer bathroom on a timer
- Electric-only or dual-fuel with central heating
- Ladder, flat-panel and designer shapes for any wall
Terms you will meet
- Dual-fuel towel rail
- A rail connected to the central-heating circuit that also has an electric element, so it works when the boiler is off in summer.
- Bathroom zones
- Areas around the bath and shower defined by the wiring regulations, each setting how much water protection an appliance needs.
- Boost timer
- A button that runs the rail at full output for a set time, typically an hour or two, then switches it off by itself.
- Best for
- Bathrooms, en-suites and changing rooms, in homes and hotel rooms
- Formats
- Widths around 400–600 mm, heights about 700–1,800 mm, typically 200–1,000 W
When it fits
Choose an electric towel rail when the bathroom needs drying power and gentle heat independent of the boiler.
When it does not
Look at a larger radiator or underfloor heating if the towel rail would be the only heat in a big or cold bathroom.

04 / How to specify it
The decisions that decide the result.
01 / 06
Calculate room heat loss
Use more than floor area; height, insulation, glazing and exposure all affect output.
02 / 06
Match response to occupancy
Quick convective heat and steady radiant heat suit different patterns.
03 / 06
Check the total connected load
Multiple room units can require circuit or supply changes even when each appliance is modest.
04 / 06
Choose controls before the model
Weekly programming and remote access should be requirements, not afterthoughts.
05 / 06
Respect bathroom zones
Only appropriately rated equipment may be installed in the permitted location.
06 / 06
Keep one family where possible
Shared controls and a repeat model simplify daily use and future replacement.
Common mistakes
Applying one watts-per-square-metre rule
It ignores insulation, ceiling height, climate and glazing.
Ignoring the property's main supply
A full-house schedule can exceed available electrical capacity.
Using portable units as permanent design
Cables, stability and poor control make them unsuitable for many long-term layouts.

06 / The long read
Electric Heating Appliances, from first quote
to a finished room.
A single room schedule prevents mismatched outputs, overloaded circuits and a different control system in every room. This is the part most suppliers leave out: what we import, how electric heating appliances should be specified before anyone prices it, where projects lose money, and what our 1–4 wks lead time actually covers.
01
What we import, and what lands on site
We supply electric heating appliances for spaces where independent, controllable heat is the practical answer: electric radiators, convectors, infrared panels, towel rails and portable units. The choice is based on room volume, insulation, operating hours and control needs, with electrical load and mounting requirements checked before the order.
Because we buy electric heating appliances directly from the factories, the range you see is the range we can programme — not a catalogue we hope to source later. In practice that means electric radiators, convectors & thermoconvectors and infrared panels, each with its own price band and availability, so a specification can be tuned to a budget instead of abandoned.
Output calculated by room: room size, exposure and insulation are considered before wattage is proposed, avoiding both underheating and unnecessary installed load.
Electric heat is simple only after the room load and the electrical load have both been calculated.

02
How electric heating appliances should be specified before it is priced
Specifying electric heating appliances well comes down to a short list of decisions taken in the right order — calculate room heat loss, match response to occupancy, check the total connected load and choose controls before the model. Taken on paper, these cost nothing. Taken on site, each one is a change order.
We write the specification with you before anything is quoted, so the number you get is for the material that will actually be installed. That means confirmed dimensions and finishes, the right performance class for the space, and quantities that include the waste factor rather than discovering it mid-installation.
The same reference behaves differently depending on where it goes — homes and apartments, holiday properties, hotel rooms, offices and studios each carry their own requirements, and we specify against the space rather than against a mood image.
Convector
Appliance that warms air as it moves across a heating element.
Infrared panel

03
Where electric heating appliances projects lose time and money
Almost every delay we are called in to rescue traces back to the same handful of causes: applying one watts-per-square-metre rule, ignoring the property's main supply, using portable units as permanent design and buying connected units without checking the platform. None of them are exotic, and all of them are avoidable at specification stage.
Applying one watts-per-square-metre rule is the most expensive one, because it ignores insulation, ceiling height, climate and glazing.
We have supplied electric heating appliances into living spaces, holiday homes and bathrooms, and the pattern is consistent: the projects that run smoothly are the ones where the material was locked before the trades were booked.
Ignoring the property's main supply — checked once on paper, never again on site.
Applying one watts-per-square-metre rule

Ignoring the property's main supply
A full-house schedule can exceed available electrical capacity.
Using portable units as permanent design
Cables, stability and poor control make them unsuitable for many long-term layouts.
Buying connected units without checking the platform
App features and connectivity vary; confirm exactly what the chosen model supports.
04
Lead times, pricing and what we handle
Standard lead time on electric heating appliances is 1–4 wks from confirmed specification, and that window covers the whole chain — factory programming, consolidation, transport, customs where applicable and delivery to site or to your warehouse. We quote the landed number, not an ex-works price that grows later.
Pricing is per project rather than per line. Because we import directly and consolidate electric heating appliances with the rest of the materials for the same room, you get one quote, one delivery window and one point of contact — and the savings show up on the total, not just on a headline reference.
If you already have drawings, send them and we will come back with a specification and a landed price. If you do not, we will build the specification with you first. Either way, nothing is ordered until the quantities, finishes and dates are agreed in writing.
07 / Questions
Frequently asked
How many watts of electric heating does a room need?+
There is no reliable single figure for every room. Area, ceiling height, insulation, glazing, exposure and location must be considered before output is selected.
What is the difference between a convector and an electric radiator?+
A convector responds quickly by warming moving air, while many electric radiators provide steadier heat through a heated body or fluid. The better choice depends on operating hours and comfort preference.
Are infrared panels suitable as the main heating source?+
They can be in suitable, well-assessed spaces, but coverage, mounting position and heat loss must be checked rather than assumed.
Can electric heaters be controlled remotely?+
Many ranges offer connected thermostats or app control. We confirm the available control system for each model before quoting.
Which units are suitable for bathrooms?+
Only products with the appropriate ingress protection and installation-zone approval should be used. Electric towel rails are commonly selected where compliant placement is available.
Can you schedule appliances for a whole building?+
Yes. Send room areas or plans and we can prepare a model and output schedule, then quote the appliances as one coordinated order.
Materials from this category are usually specified for interior design projects. We specify and supply every material the project needs; if you need installers, we can suggest partners you contract directly.
