Electric Heating
City Plumbing sells a good, varied selection of electric heaters and fan converters to suit all spaces. The term electric heater is quite broad and encompasses any heating device that uses electricity as its primary energy source to generate heat.
These work by passing an electric current through a resistive element, which then heats up and transfers that heat to the surrounding environment.
What Are Electric Radiators?
Electric radiators are standalone heating appliances which use electricity to generate warmth, providing a flexible and often energy-efficient way to heat individual rooms or entire homes.
Unlike traditional central heating radiators that rely on a boiler to heat water circulated through pipes, electric radiators typically work by passing electricity through a heating element within the unit.
This element heats up, and the heat is then transferred to the room through a combination of convection, radiation, or conduction.
What Are Electric Fan Convectors?
Electric fan convectors are a type of electric heater that utilises a fan to enhance the process of convection for rapid and efficient heating of a space.
They work by drawing in cooler air, passing it over an electrically heated element, and then using a fan to forcefully blow the warmed air out into the room.
Ideal for rooms needing a quick and portable heating solution and potentially for use in smaller commercial spaces where a fast heating option is required, you’ll find models with different power outputs, features (like timers and remote controls), and designs to suit various needs and preferences.
What Are Storage Heaters?
Storage heaters are electric heating appliances designed to store thermal energy during off-peak electricity hours (typically overnight when electricity tariffs are cheaper, especially with Economy 7 or similar tariffs) and then release this stored heat gradually throughout the day.
Storage heaters can be a cost-effective heating solution, particularly for households that primarily use electricity and can take advantage of off-peak tariffs. Modern storage heaters with smart controls offer improved efficiency and convenience compared to older models. However, their effectiveness depends on usage patterns, the type of tariff, and the level of control desired.
