Leading radiator manufacturer Stelrad Radiators has started 2025 as it finished 2024 being recognised for the quality of its products. It has been shortlisted in the National Air Conditioning, Refrigeration and Heat Pump Awards 2025 in the Ancillary Product Category with its K3 Radiator series – a design of radiator that offers three panels and three sets of fins which can be the exact requirement of radiators to match with heat pump driven renewable heating systems.
The National Air Conditioning, Refrigeration and Heat Pump Awards will be presented at the awards evening on 6th March 2025 at the Midland Hotel in Manchester.
“Our K3 radiators are increasingly being specified for heat pump driven heating systems,” says Head of Marketing at Stelrad, Chris Harvey. “A K3 provides 50% more heating surface compared to a standard K2 option but takes up the same radiator footprint within a room to do so. We are still seeing increasing numbers of developers deciding to choose radiators upstairs and downstairs in new build developments and in the majority of heating system replacement systems whether renewable of traditional boiler driven systems are used, because radiators are so much easier to install, particularly in older properties which we have in the UK up and down the country.
Recent independent academic research at Salford University, in their Energy Homes has shown that in real life scenarios, radiators throughout in a home offer the most economical and energy efficient approach to heating with air source heat pumps and this is something that will see even more radiators selected to share heat around homes in the years ahead.”
