KITCHEN RADIATORS UK - FAQS
Where to Put a Radiator in the Kitchen?
Where to fit a kitchen radiator is an important decision to make. Kitchens are often the coldest of rooms due to the tiled or laminate flooring. When deciding where to place your kitchen radiator, there are a few factors to consider.
Firstly, the position of your kitchen radiator will affect the efficiency of it. We would advise that when you install your radiator for a kitchen, the best place is the coldest part of the room. This is usually under a window, as cold air creates better heat conductivity.
Whether that means your kitchen wall radiator should be a tall kitchen radiator or a small kitchen radiator entirely depends on the dimensions and properties of your own kitchen. If your home is double-glazed and well-insulated, there may not be a particularly cold area in your kitchen. In this case, place your new kitchen vertical radiator wherever you like. This opens the potential to buy a tall kitchen radiator that could be a more practical solution. Modern UK kitchen radiators at Stelrad are made with a protective gloss finish that will not remove from the radiator if it is rubbed against.

What Size Radiator Do I Need for My Kitchen?
What size kitchen radiator you need for your kitchen depends entirely on the size of your kitchen. For a larger room, a larger or vertical radiator for your kitchen is generally needed to heat the room, unless you purchase multiple small kitchen radiators. On average, we suggest one radiator for every 4 metres or so in your room. Use our radiator size search tool to help decide which of our UK kitchen radiators is right for you.
Do You Need a Radiator in the Kitchen?
Yes, although your kitchen does heat up a considerable amount when you are cooking, which can be a benefit in the colder winter months, you won’t be cooking all day every day! Even if your kitchen is smaller, its recommended to have a small kitchen radiator, perhaps a multi-purpose radiator such as a kitchen towel rail, as this will not only keep the room warm, but it will also ensure any damp tea towels are fully dry for when you next need to use them. From a hygiene point of view, the quicker your tea towels can dry will help to prevent germs from building up, helping you stay safe when preparing meals.
