If you are looking for a convenient and energy efficient solution to keep your home warm during the colder seasons, an electric radiator setup can be a great choice. While you can use electric radiators to heat the entire house, they can also be used as a source of additional warmth in the places where you need it most and offer the option of just heating one room at a time while keeping those heating costs down.

There are many benefits of installing an electric heating system, this type of heating system doesn’t require gas or a source of fuel to operate. You can also easily adjust the temperature and even set a specific temperature in each room, and the radiator will automatically turn on and off as required.

When installing an electric heating system, you will need to know the total BTU of the room of which the radiator is going to be installed in. This is the amount of energy that is required to heat the room.

The room can be heated faster if you install an electric radiator with a higher flow rate.

There are different types of electric heaters on the the market today here are few options that you can have installed within your home

Blow heaters, or fan heaters, use an exposed wire element to heat up the air, which is then blown out into the room.

Convection heaters also use an exposed wire element to heat the air, however, they have no moving parts and rely on the natural rising and falling of warm air to distribute heat.

Infrared heaters or radiant panels use radiation (infrared heat) to emit warmth. This method relies on heating walls, surfaces and people directly rather than air volume.
