Normal Radiators vs Designer Radiators

When selecting a radiator, homeowners often choose between standard radiators with a classic look and designer radiators that can enhance the décor of the room. Each caters to different aesthetic and functional needs.

Normal radiators like our standard steel radiators are revered for their durability and efficiency. They blend seamlessly into any space without drawing attention, making them a practical choice for those who prefer a minimalist approach. These basic radiators are also generally more cost-effective, providing a reliable heating solution at an affordable price. If you just want a radiator that works, these have always been a great choice for UK homes.

On the other hand, designer radiators offer a touch of elegance and innovation, turning a functional item into a statement piece. With various shapes, sizes, and colours, these radiators can accentuate the unique style of a room, complementing both modern and traditional décors. Designer radiators can be the centrepiece of a room’s design, reflecting personal tastes and enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal.

Which you choose is entirely down to your preferences, and you can find both modern steel panel radiators alongside column radiators that have more character. It’s not an easy choice, but you’ll find plenty to consider throughout the Stelrad range.

BASIC RADIATOR FAQs

Are steel radiators better than aluminium?

Steel and aluminium radiators both excel in different areas. Steel radiators are highly durable, efficient in heat conduction, and retain heat longer, ensuring your home stays warm even after the heating is off. They are durable, visually appealing, and easy to maintain.

On the other hand, aluminium radiators heat up quickly, making them ideal for rapid heating needs. However, it won’t retain the heat for as long once the heating has been turned off compared to a steel radiator. They respond swiftly to thermostat adjustments and cool down rapidly, offering flexibility in temperature control. Aluminium radiators are also lighter, which can simplify installation and adjustment.

While both materials have distinct advantages, the choice between them should consider specific heating requirements and room conditions. Use our BTU Heat Loss Calculator to determine which type of radiator is most suitable for your needs.

What is the smallest steel radiator available?

We have a range of sizes you can choose from, so if you need something compact for a smaller room, our classic compact radiator can provide what you are looking for. Using our basic radiator size tool is the best way to find matching radiators to your measurements, as we have options from as small as 300mm in height and 400mm in width.

It’s important to choose the right size radiator for the room, so while a small radiator may be less imposing if it is in a larger room, it may not work as efficiently as a normal radiator size. If you are unsure of the correct size, please do get in touch before proceeding with an order.

What are convection fins on steel radiators?

You will find convection fins on most radiator models, and they are thin, metal plates attached to the back of the radiator or between two panels in some models. Convection fins are used to increase the contact surface of the radiator tubes to the surrounding air. As hot water or steam flows through the radiator, it heats the metal fins, which convects heat into the surrounding air.

The increased surface area of the fins allows for more heat to be transferred from the radiator to the air, making the radiator more efficient at heating a room. Convection fins help to ensure that the heat produced by the radiator is distributed evenly throughout the room, providing a comfortable and consistent level of warmth.

What is the difference between a K1 and a K2 steel radiator?

K1 and K2 are two different types of steel radiators that differ in size and heat output. The main physical difference is in the layers of convection fins.

K1 radiators are single panel radiators with 1 panel and 1 set of convection fins, designed for use in smaller rooms or spaces where lower heat output is required. K2 radiators, on the other hand, are double panel radiators that are for use in larger rooms or spaces where higher heat output is needed. A K2 radiator has 2 panels and 2 sets of convection fins.

Choosing between these two types of standard radiators depends on the size of the room or space that needs to be heated and the desired level of heat output. Using our BTU calculator can help determine which is best for the room you need.

The UK’s #1 radiator specialists since 1936, we offer the widest range of high-performance radiators for homes and businesses nationwide. Trust Stelrad to keep you warm in every room.
