Good Oil Filled Radiators

They are extremely quiet and don't blow dry air into the room. They also keep the heat longer than other types, making them more energy efficient.

Look for models that have adjustable thermostat settings so that you can alter the heating settings to suit your needs, as well in safety features such as tip-over switches.

Simple to Use

Our oil-filled radiators are our most sought-after electric heaters. This is due to their exceptional heat retention and the latest energy saving features. They're ideal for both bathrooms and main living spaces, with their uniform heating is designed to reach every nook and cranny in your home.

The oil-filled radiator's electrical heating element is used to heat the diathermic oil reservoir that is located inside. When heated, the thermal oil holds onto heat for a long time and emits a constant stream of warmth which spreads across your room via thermal radiation and air convection. The result is a cozy and warm space in much less time than it would take for an electric fan heater to achieve the same, and with very little noise output.

The heat produced by a premium oil-filled radiator can last for a long time after it's turned off. It's worth noting that they can take longer than other models to reach their full temperature because the thermal oil needs to warm up, but once it's warmed up, you can expect to remain warm for many hours.

In addition to being extremely efficient, radiators that are filled with oil are also extremely affordable to run. You can pick the one that fits your budget with an electric power output that ranges from 800W to 2500W. The thermal oil used to power the radiators keeps electricity costs to a minimum. This makes them an excellent choice for homes with older gas boilers or for those looking to make a move towards 100% carbon neutral heating.

If you're keen to maximise the value of your radiator that is filled with oil, then you should think about getting one that comes with an integrated thermostat and programming capabilities. These features will allow you to get the most out of your heater by making sure that it's only turned on when it's needed. A digital or intelligent thermostat allows you to set up specific heating schedules to meet your daily, weekly and hourly needs.

Many of our radiators with oil come with integrated controls that let you control the heaters with your smartphone or tablet. This is ideal for those who suffer from vision or mobility issues because it allows them to easily access the temperature settings.

Safety

Electric oil-filled radiators differ from halogen heaters or fan heaters. They employ an element for heating which is submerged in an in-line reservoir of thermal fluid (typically oil). When the heating element heats up the oil, it warms too, and that heat is then transferred to the air surrounding it to heat the room. This is why they can take longer to warm up than other heaters, however once they have they continue to produce heat for quite some time after they have been turned off.

They are also thought to be safer than other heaters because they are less likely to cause burns or catch fire if you contact them. The heating elements are housed in an enclosure, and they're protected by oil to stop sparks from accidentally igniting.

You should still be careful with any electrical appliance in your home and keep them away from any flammable material. Children should be kept away from them too as they can easily knock them over, and that's why you must always ensure that they are off and tucked away when not in use.

Most modern electric oil radiators have many advanced safety features including built-in timers, anti-tip, tilt switches and thermostats to name but a few. They are also designed as more energy efficient, as they don't release a lot of heat once they've been turned off. They also have good thermal retention, which makes them remain warmer for a longer time.

Finally, you must use the recommended extension cords and plugs that are compatible with your oil radiator as making use of the wrong ones can cause overheating, which is a common cause of fire-related accidents. It is also essential to check whether your smoke and heat detectors are functioning properly and can stop a fire from ever starting.

Oil-filled radiators are safe for use, and they should last for many years. But, just like any other appliance, you should take care of them and check for any signs of wear and tear regularly.

Energy Efficiency

Oil-filled radiators are offered in both portable oil filled radiator and fixed options. They are ideal for heating on demand. They are easy to use. The electrical element inside warms the thermal oil, which releases warmth into the space via convection and infrared. The heated air is then evenly distributed throughout the space. These heaters are almost silent, in contrast to other space heating systems which use the use of a fan to blow hot air out. This is because the hot oil does the job, not a fan, and also because they don't get hot enough to cause skin burns or fire hazards, they are safe to touch as well.

Energy-saving radiators that are filled with oil are also available. They include open window detection that automatically switches the radiator into low-power mode whenever it detects draughts. This is done in conjunction with your weekly heating schedule, to avoid the room becoming uncomfortable or using up too much power.

Another feature that is energy efficient is adaptive start that anticipates when the room is in need of warming up and follows an approach of gradual heating to avoid sudden temperature spikes and excessive use of power. This is great for busy households and living spaces that are shared and ensures that your home is always cozy without the need to keep a radiator on.

A WiFi-compatible model lets you connect to the internet and remotely control your oil radiators via an app for your smartphone. You can make and edit heating programs, as well as monitor your energy usage anywhere in the world. This will allow you to keep your home at a perfect temperature while saving money. Moreover, some models have overheat protection and tilt switches that immediately shut off the radiator when they detect a possible problem with the unit. This is a crucial safety feature for any space heating system.

Convenience

Electric radiators with oil-filled heating elements like other heating units, don't require a refill. This is because the oil inside is not burning, but is simply heated. This results in the thermal fluid inside your radiator lasting the entire lifetime of the unit.

They are also energy efficient. When the power is turned on electrons begin to bounce around the metal-protected wire within the heating element. This causes friction and heat, which in turn warms the diathermic fluid. Once the oil has warmed up naturally, convection begins to warm the air and the room.

These radiators are ideal for large rooms or open plan spaces, able to heat them quickly and efficiently. They also have the ability to heat cold areas due to their superior thermal properties. These radiators will help you save money on your electricity bills throughout the year due to their energy-saving features and thermostats that last for a long time.

Many are concerned about the safety of oil filled radiators, but they've been shown to be safer than other types of heaters. In contrast to fan heaters, halogen radiators or convection heaters, they don't become hot enough to burn the skin or damage nearby surfaces. This makes them much less prone to cause fires by accident, while their lack of fans means they are quieter to operate.

Most of them are small enough to be easy to pick up and carry. Some of the larger models come with wheels, making it easy to move them around the office or home. It is also easier to clean and maintain as they can be rolled under the skirts of cupboards and furniture without damaging them.

It's no surprise that these oil-filled radiators are among the best to have for your office or home. There's a model to fit every budget and requirement whether you're seeking one with an adjustable thermostat as well as safety features or an energy monitor. For added convenience, most of our models can be paired with smart controls, which allow you to control your heating via the app.
