Radiator efficiency is a quetison we regualarly get asked. Efficiency is a interesting question because it means different things to different people and with different radiators can be found in different ways, Our expert Jason will discuss efficiencies on castiron radiators, designer radiators, electric radiators and towel rails.

Have you thought of doing a video through the Hubble telescope . Just so we may possibly see who's talking.

Hello, thanks for the info. For a standard, semi-detached house (I haven't calculated the BTU yet for each room), is aluminium the best for saving money long-term on energy bills? I've read it can save around 10% on bills compared with steel. Not sure if this is a marketing ploy or truthful. Any insight here? We can't afford copper or cast iron.

Thanks for the question Jonathan. Aluminium generally has a lower water content per radiator and thus you are heating up less water, therefore it should equate to less energy being used to get to the temperature, think boiling the kettle. Its not all one sided towards aluminium though, it's a less dense material and heat retention is lower once the heating system is turned off, i know from experience steel can feel hotter for longer after the heating is off. Lifestyle and your home (insulation) can play as much a party in gaining savings as could the choice between steel or aluminum and steel is generally cheaper than aluminium so does the 10% per year equate to savings over longer term once you factor in a higher price for aluminium.

appreciate this is 2 years old now; but still why only 480p? didn't answer the question; designer vs traditional for output/performance did it?

Our camera has now been improved, we will re shoot this video. In answer to your question about traditional, regards output, a Watt is a Watt so a cast iron radiator or designer no difference. In respect to performance, the only difference is water content, designer radiators are generally lower and therefore have a quicker heat up time but cast will retain heat for much longer after the boiler has switched off.

Would you recommend changing a water fed rad to an electric one? are the outputs similar?

Hi Tony, suppose it depends on the longevity of gas, govt. certainly moving people away from gas boilers and supply. At this moment both equally suitable. Wattages on electric are good up to 2000 Watts via thermostatically controlled elements and that would deal with most well sized rooms.

What is better a double rad or single rad but same btu power

Hi Ed, has to be the single if they are producing the same BTU as you'd be heating up less water inside the radiator. Any further queries or to purchase a single - Contact@featureradiators.co.uk or call 01274 567789

Again, no mention of colour? Do not dark colours radiate better than light?

Thanks for the comment Blair, i believe there is some evidence of this, didn't Lord Rayleigh work on this?. I would expect although it is factual it may be negligible in practice of radiators in a living room for example considering many other factor's present but just so you're aware many of our radiators can be painted in variety of black/ dark colours. Anything else just get in touch - 01274 567789 or contact@featureradiatros.co.uk

yeah, black radiates more than white, that's why the SR71 was black.
