Electric radiators: built to last

Sunflow Stumpf Machine Manufacturing a Sunflow Electric Radiator

Top-class manufacturing

All of our Elements, Classic & Classic+ radiators are manufactured by us at our factory in Royal Wootton Bassett, right here in the UK. 

We make all of our own heating elements. We cut the steel, bend it and paint it. Then we assemble our heaters, wire them, test them and ship them in our own reusable, recyclable packaging. And with our platinum package, our own people will install them too.

Built with the highest quality components and designed to last a lifetime, we know our systems will last, which is ultimately better for you and your pocket. 

Zero maintenance

Electric radiators require virtually no maintenance due to their lack of moving components. You can forget about the need for annual servicing because electric radiators don’t involve carbon monoxide or rely on combustible fuels, eliminating the necessity for professional inspections. In reality, a simple dusting once a month is all it takes to ensure your electric radiator remains in excellent working order. In the unlikely event you do find a fault, we provide long lasting warranties on our heaters, so you don’t have to worry about expensive repairs.

Advanced programming options

Contemporary homes demand innovative solutions, and that’s precisely why our electric radiators are equipped with the most cutting-edge programming available. This not only simplifies and enhances heat control but also redefines the radiator’s versatility – attributes that bring advantages not only to the user but also to the radiator itself.

  • Accurate precision digital thermostats are a key feature of our electric radiators. These built-in thermostats are exceptionally precise, ensuring that your chosen temperature is maintained consistently without any fluctuations. They work by continuously monitoring the room’s temperature and making automatic adjustments to ensure that the heat levels remain optimal. This not only results in more efficient heating but also enhances the overall reliability of the system.
  • We understand that as well as a warm comfortable home, you want to have smart control of your heating requirements. Our Powerdown enabled Smart Controller uses our web-based app through your PC, smartphone or tablet so that you can match your heating to your lifestyle.

100% efficiency

Electric radiators are all about efficiency. They come equipped with advanced heating elements that have been meticulously designed to deliver and retain heat effectively. Unlike central heating systems that can lose heat through lengthy pipework, electric radiators ensure that all the electricity they consume is converted into usable heat.

Here’s the best part: you can take the green route by pairing your electric radiator with a renewable energy source, making your heating carbon-free. This not only keeps your energy bills in check but also contributes to a cleaner, greener planet. Thanks to a multitude of energy-saving features, electric radiators never have to work excessively to meet your heating needs, ensuring their consistent performance over many years of use.

Long lasting warranties

Verifying a product’s warranty is a reliable method of assessing its quality. The duration of the warranty can differ from one item to another. Take, for instance, our Classic and Classic+ radiators, which provide a 15-year warranty. This ensures that you won’t encounter any unforeseen expenses in the future. You can rest assured that if any faults arise within this period, we will take care of repairing or replacing your radiator.

Out with the old, in with the new

If you think that your radiators are displaying signs of wear and tear, there’s no time like the present to switch to electric heating. Whether you value sophisticated programming, contemporary aesthetics, or something else entirely, we can find the right radiators for your home. You can make your purchase with complete confidence, knowing that your radiator will endure for many years, and in certain instances, even a lifetime.
