Types of Aluminium Radiators
Our aluminium radiator collection here at Stelrad is designed to provide another great option for heating your home alongside our already extensive radiator range. Alongside our standard steel radiators, including our green series that provides a sustainable choice, our UK aluminium radiators provide fast heating efficiency when you need it. Here are some of the different aluminium radiator options you’ll be able to find here at Stelrad:
Aluminium Column Radiators
For a touch of classic charm blended with modern efficiency, our column radiators are the perfect choice. With both horizontal and vertical steel options, we also have aluminium radiators that feature elegantly sculpted columns that radiate heat more extensively across the room. Their robust design not only serves as an efficient heat source but also as a decorative element in any room if you love classic design.
Aluminium Electric Radiators
Electric aluminium radiators offer flexibility and convenience, particularly in areas where central heating is not available or as a supplemental heat source for occasional use. These electric radiators such as the Fantasia Dry and Alyne models come with an integrated control panel for easy use, allowing for precise temperature management and energy efficiency. Ideal for extensions or bathrooms, they require no complex plumbing, no ongoing maintenance, and can be installed virtually anywhere with a power outlet safely (we recommend using a professional electrician for bathroom installation).
Aluminium Vertical Radiators
Vertical radiators are an excellent solution for rooms with limited wall space. These tall, slim models can be placed in narrow areas, making them ideal for contemporary homes where space is at a premium, but style cannot be compromised. Despite their compact footprint, an aluminium vertical radiator will provide excellent heat output and become a striking feature in any room.
Each type of aluminium radiator is engineered with optimal heat distribution in mind, ensuring that your choice is not only about the way it looks in the room but also about ensuring efficiency and enhancing the comfort of your environment. To help you make the right choice, you can use our BTU heat loss calculator – this will assist in showing you which of our radiators, including aluminium radiators, will be best in terms of heat output for the room size and features.
Aluminium Radiators UK FAQs
What are the benefits of aluminium radiators?
If you’ve not considered them before, aluminium radiators are highly efficient due to aluminium’s excellent thermal conductivity. This means they heat up quickly and respond rapidly to changes in room temperature. This can mean significant energy savings when used efficiently. Additionally, they are lightweight making them easy to install and suitable for walls that might not support heavier steel radiators.
Are aluminium radiators better than steel ones?
Rather than looking at whether one type is better than the other, both are good for home heating. Aluminium radiators provide a faster response time in heating up and cooling down, which can be more energy-efficient depending on your heating needs and lifestyle. They are also more lightweight and often feature a more modern design. Steel radiators, however, will always be popular and are known for their durability in many different styles and designs – see our designer radiators. The choice between the two will be different for everyone, depending on the specific design you want for a room, the heat output, and your budget.
Can I use aluminium radiators in any room?
Yes, an aluminium radiator is a versatile choice and can be installed in any room of your house, with electric options available that are great for bathrooms and utility rooms. They come in various sizes and styles and can be ideal for tight spaces such as bathrooms and kitchens with lots of units, as well as larger living areas where a high heat output is necessary. Use our BTU calculator to get a better idea of which types of radiators will be best for a specific room.
How do I maintain my aluminium radiator?
In general, aluminium radiators require minimal maintenance. Regular dusting and wiping with a damp cloth are sufficient to keep them in good condition just like a standard radiator. It’s also important to check the integrity of the valves and connections periodically to avoid leaks and ensure efficient operation. Electric aluminium radiator models like the Fantasia Dry and Alynne both require minimal maintenance so you can enjoy hassle-free heating for the long term.
Are aluminium vertical radiators good for towel drying?
Yes, if you choose an aluminium vertical radiator suitable for bathrooms, this can provide a quick and efficient way to heat the room when you need to and keep towels dry. This can prevent the room from becoming damp and ensure you’ve always got warm, dry towels ready to use. Models like the Fantasia Dry are an electric aluminium radiator that provides maintenance-free heating with either 16 or 24 horizontal round tubes that are perfect for towels.
