WHITE RADIATOR FAQS
How do I clean a white radiator?
Regularly cleaning a white radiator not only helps them look better but also increases their efficiency. Accumulated dust can trap heat and reduce the radiator’s performance. Use a duster or vacuum cleaner to gently remove any dust from the surface. For white panel radiators with convector fins, use a radiator brush to push the dust out. After doing so, you can vacuum the area under the radiator and along the skirting board.
Once dust is removed, you can clean your white radiator with mild soapy water, a homemade solution of vinegar water, or a store-bought radiator cleaner. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the surface of your radiator. Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to dry and buff the surface once washed. This will give your white radiator a fresh and clean look and help it look great in the long term.
Can I paint my white radiator a different colour?
While you can paint white radiators a different colour, it’s not recommended as it can affect their performance and durability. Instead, we offer radiators in a range of colours including different shades of white to help you find the right match for your décor. Painting your radiator may also void its warranty, so it’s best to buy a radiator from our collection of coloured radiators rather than purchasing white standard radiators to then paint.
Can white radiators be used as the sole heating source for a room?
A white radiator can be used as the sole heating source for a room, but how efficient it will be depends on factors including the size and insulation levels of the room, as well as the output and efficiency of the radiator itself. We recommend using our radiator size search tool and heat loss calculator to determine the best heating solution for your room. You can contact our friendly team for advice, and we’ll do our absolute best to help you find the ideal radiator for your home.
Why are radiators white?
Radiators are often white because it is a neutral colour that complements most décor styles and does not clash with other furnishings in a room. White is a practical colour choice because it helps to reflect light and make a room feel brighter. Radiators are also painted white for better functionality – because a white surface can reflect heat energy and light, it makes more sense to have white modern radiators when you want a warm space.
At Stelrad, we recognise that every home is unique and that our customers may want to choose a radiator in a different colour to suit their personal style or the décor of their home. That’s why we offer a wide range of over 30 colours to choose from, so you can find the perfect radiator to complement your interior design.
How can I choose a suitable size white radiator for my room?
Be sure to check the measurements of where the radiator will be installed. If replacing an existing radiator, measure this and the space between the pipes connecting to your central heating system. Use our BTU heat loss calculator to provide details about the room and we’ll recommend which of our white radiators will be the best option. It’s important to choose the right size white radiator as choosing one too small or large will impact its efficiency. If you need any help, please contact us.
