Smart Radiators

Smart electric radiators are transforming home heating with their advanced features and modern convenience. Designed to provide greater control, efficiency and comfort, they offer a flexible alternative to traditional systems. Find out the answers to common questions about smart radiators below.

 

What is a smart radiator?

A smart radiator is a modern heating solution that lets you manage your home’s temperature remotely using apps, voice commands or other smart technology. Unlike traditional convector radiators that connect to your central heating system, smart radiators offer greater efficiency, allowing you to heat your home in a way that suits you.

These advanced devices can be programmed to maintain specific temperatures or adjust at set times, ensuring your home is always comfortable. They allow room-by-room control, so you can heat individual spaces or zones based on your needs, avoiding wasted energy. 

Smart radiators also come with energy-saving features like geolocation, which adjusts heating based on your proximity, as well as energy tracking tools that help monitor and reduce usage. Some models even work with voice assistants like Alexa or Google Home for hands-free control.

 

Can you control each room’s temperature independently?

Yes, you can control the temperature of each room independently with a smart heating setup that includes key components like smart radiator valves and a compatible smart thermostat or zone controller.

To achieve room-by-room control, smart TRVs should be installed on individual radiators. These devices let you set specific temperatures, create tailored schedules for each room, and even manage heating automatically based on room occupancy. For the best results, it's recommended to install smart valves on all radiators to fully optimise your heating system.

 

Are smart electric radiators any good?

Yes, smart electric radiators are a great option for heating your home. They give you precise temperature control, save energy and let you manage heating remotely. They can help lower your energy bills by around 10 to 20%, depending on how long you use them and the size of your household. With features like schedules and app controls, they make it easy to avoid wasting energy while staying comfortable.
