An electric radiator is a type of heating radiator that is manufactured and supplied in a portable and movable design.

Due to their compact size and lightweight structure, electric radiators can be easily and quickly installed in areas with limited space or insufficient heating simply by plugging them into a power outlet, without the need for piping.

The use of electric radiators for comfortable heating has become one of the most popular choices among consumers, thanks to easy operation, high safety, and silent performance, making them ideal for supplementary and instant heating systems in buildings.

What Is an Electric Radiator?

An electric radiator is one of the latest heating devices that operates as a standalone heating unit using electrical energy to generate heat in various spaces. The heat transfer medium inside the unit is oil.

Electric radiators are produced in portable designs with various capacities and typically operate on single-phase electricity.

Electric radiators are commonly used in bedrooms, guard rooms, locations without gas piping, or areas with no access to gas fuel.

Overall, if you have a small space or no access to gas, electric radiators are among the best options for meeting your heating needs.

How Does an Electric Radiator Work?

Inside an electric radiator, heating elements are installed. These elements generate heat using electrical energy, and this heat is then transferred to the oil circulating inside the fins of the steel radiator.

Once the oil inside the unit reaches the required temperature, it begins to circulate within the radiator fins, transferring heat to the fins themselves. As a result, the electric radiator provides the necessary heat for space heating and warms the surrounding environment.

How to Choose Capacity and Number of Fins for Electric Radiators

To select the appropriate electric radiator based on usage and room size, please consider the following guidelines:

1. Electric radiators with 5 to 7 fins are suitable for rooms measuring 6 to 8 square meters with a ceiling height of approximately 2.8 meters in moderate climates.
2. Radiators with 7 to 9 fins are suitable for rooms measuring 8 to 10 square meters under similar conditions.
3. Radiators with 9 to 11 fins are suitable for spaces of 10 to 12 square meters.
4. Radiators with 11 to 13 fins are suitable for rooms measuring 12 to 15 square meters.

Types of Electric Radiators

In general, electric radiators are divided into two main types: fin-type (conventional) and decorative electric radiators.

Fin-type electric radiators are used to provide heating for various spaces based on their number of fins, heating capacity, dimensions, and technical features, according to the area size.

Decorative electric radiators, like other electric heaters, provide heating for different environments. However, they differ in design, appearance, dimensions, materials, and overall aesthetics, offering a stylish and modern look.
Decorative electric radiators are available in a wide range of designs and can also be manufactured on a custom basis upon customer request. These models can be installed in both horizontal and vertical positions.

It should be noted that factors such as variations in size, heating capacity, materials, shape, and design result in a wide range of electric radiator models, including both fin-type and decorative options.

Types of Fin-Type Electric Radiators

Fin-type electric radiators are classified into three categories: oil-filled electric radiators (thermal fluid filled with oil), oil-free (dry heating) radiators, and ceramic (dry stone) electric radiators. Each type is explained below:

Oil-Filled Electric Radiator (Oil Thermal Fluid)

The fins of this type of electric radiator are filled with thermodynamic oil, which provides stable and uniform heat output. When wall-mounted, oil-filled electric radiators with an attractive design can heat a larger area compared to conventional radiators, making them suitable for use in colder regions.

Oil-Free Electric Radiator (Dry Heating)

Oil-free or dry-heating electric radiators heat up very quickly and cool down just as fast. They are highly responsive to temperature changes, allowing users to feel the difference immediately after adjusting the temperature level. These electric radiators also feature a sleek and modern appearance and can be installed in various areas of the home.

Ceramic Electric Radiator (Dry Stone)

This type of electric radiator provides radiant heating and can warm a larger area compared to the other two models. It does not cool down easily due to air movement, making it suitable for indoor spaces that are difficult to heat.
In fact, the ceramic stones used in these electric radiators help retain heat for a longer period, allowing the unit to maintain warmth over extended durations.

Electric Radiator Price

In general, the price of an electric radiator varies depending on the number of fins, heating capacity, dimensions, and brand. For example, as the number of fins and the size of the electric radiator increase, the price also rises.

You can choose the most suitable model based on your budget from various electric radiators offered by reputable brands such as Midea, Adisan, Nikura, Nikai, Evvoli, and others at the Damatajhiz collection.

It is worth noting that the prices of electric radiators available at the Damatajhiz reference and specialized collection are up to date, and applicable consumer discounts have already been applied.

Buying an Electric Radiator

To choose and purchase a suitable electric radiator, you should first determine the required heating output (thermal capacity) based on the application and the size of the space. Next, select the appropriate number of fins. Other factors to consider include the presence or absence of an air circulation fan. The existence of a fan helps distribute warm air more evenly and allows the room temperature to reach the desired level more quickly. However, for smaller spaces, fan-assisted electric radiators are not always necessary, and fanless models can still provide adequate heating.

At the specialized Damatajhiz collection, technical specifications of various electric radiators from reputable brands with official warranties are provided, helping you enjoy a smart and optimal purchasing experience.

Pay Attention to Electricity Consumption of Electric Radiators

One of the most important considerations when selecting and purchasing an electric radiator is its electricity or energy consumption.

Generally, there is a direct relationship between power consumption and the number of fins in oil-filled fin-type electric radiators. In other words, the greater the number of fins, the higher the heating output and electricity consumption.

Based on the intended application and room size, you should choose between 7-fin and 13-fin electric radiator models. Electric radiators are also equipped with thermostats that allow users to adjust the heating level according to the space, helping to reduce energy consumption.

Important Points Before Buying an Electric Radiator

Before selecting and purchasing an electric radiator, it is essential to consider the following key points:

• The greater the number of fins in an electric radiator, the higher its heat output.
• Electric radiators are equipped with a temperature control system that prevents overheating.
• Electric radiators operate using electrical energy and are designed for single-phase power (220 volts). Please note that their electricity consumption is relatively higher compared to some other heating systems.
• Industrial electric radiators with temperature control systems are typically produced in three power ratings: 1000, 1500, and 2500 watts. In other words, electric radiators are available in three heating capacities.

Important Tips for Using Electric Radiators

After purchasing an electric radiator, it is important to follow certain guidelines to optimize energy consumption and extend the lifespan and durability of the unit.

These important tips include the following:

Choosing the Installation Location for Electric Radiators

Heat loss generally occurs in two ways: through building elements such as ceilings, floors, walls, windows, and similar surfaces, and through the infiltration of cold air from window gaps.

Such heat losses occur in all conditions. However, using double-glazed UPVC windows can significantly reduce heat loss.

It is also recommended that after proper sealing and the use of double-glazed windows, electric radiators be installed under windows. This is because the air in these areas is usually colder, allowing effective heat exchange and air circulation to balance the room temperature.

Adjusting Heating Level and Suitable Temperature

Please note that the heating level of the electric radiator should be adjusted according to the temperature of the space in use. This helps optimize energy consumption and improve overall efficiency.

Paying Attention to Electric Radiator Connections

To increase the lifespan, durability, and stability of the electric radiator, special attention should always be paid to essential components such as the power cable condition, fan operation, and the firmness of the unit’s base.

What Is the Difference Between an Electric Radiator and an Electric Heater?

As mentioned earlier, electric radiators are mainly used to provide localized heating for smaller spaces. In comparison, electric heaters generally offer higher heating capacity, warm the space more quickly, and reach the desired temperature in a shorter time.

It should also be noted that electric radiators consume less electricity than electric heaters.
