Most of us probably never notice our traditional white panel radiators, and when sprucing up the interior design of our home they’re the last thing we think of. Consequently, we may not even be aware of the sheer number of choices open to us with modern ‘designer’ radiators in terms of colour, shape, materials and functionality. Nowadays radiators can be affordable and attractive features in our homes rather than intrusive, dull, blocks of metal in the background.
Types of
Designer Radiators
Whether it’s column, tube or panel, vertical or horizontal, the range and choice is enormous and includes:
Electric Radiators – a versatile and flexible solution, with fantastic heat output, and can be wall mounted.
Period Radiators – if you have an older property and want authentic interiors, or if you want to bring a period look to a modern home.
Low Level Radiators – unobtrusive but very effective, keeping the clean lines of your rooms.
Tubular Radiators – great looking, and the whole surface area of each tube working to bring more warmth.
Panel Radiators – exciting and modern design ideas have now been applied to the familiar panel radiator that many of us have in our homes.
Architectural Radiators – glamorous and artistic designs, who says radiators can’t look stunning?
Mirrored Radiators – a two-in-one striking and space saving way to bring warmth, with the mirror framed by imaginative radiator designs.
If you want something even more individual e.g. if you need a radiator to fit on a curved surface, there are companies who provide a
radiator curving service. This means you can have beautifully designed
curved radiators that fit your home like a glove.
For spaces where a hot radiator surface would be a hazard e.g. schools or hospitals, you can install low surface temperature (LST) radiators.
The Benefit of Designer Radiators
Choice is the main benefit of modern designer radiators:
No need to stick to white, designer radiators are available in a wide range of colours to match your interior design ideas perfectly.
There is now choice of materials. Aluminium and tubular steel bring more responsive and economical radiators which are easy to clean and can be made into a fantastic array of shapes and styles.
You can now choose whether the radiator sits on the floor or on the wall, and it can be tall, short, wide, horizontal or vertical.
Your radiators can now be as individual as you, which means that you can have a living space that’s totally in harmony with your design ideas. At last there are heating solutions that are attractive, affordable, functional and economical.
