How Do Storage Heaters Work?
Storage heaters are highly efficient devices designed to store heat during off-peak hours, typically at night, and release it throughout the day. This makes them an ideal solution for commercial environments that benefit from maintaining warmth without using peak-time electricity. They use thermal bricks to retain the heat, and with smart controls, you can regulate when and how much heat is released.
Commercial Applications:
Perfect for Hotels, Restaurants and Bars where consistent temperature control is needed without skyrocketing energy costs. Domestic users can also take advantage of lower electricity tariffs, keeping rooms warm at an economical rate.
How Much Does an Electric Heater Cost to Run?
The cost of running an electric heater depends on factors like power rating (measured in kW), usage hours, and electricity rates. On average, a 2kW heater used for an hour can cost between 34-40p.
- Fan Heaters: Quick to heat small to medium spaces, these are ideal for occasional use. However, they are less energy-efficient compared to other heaters, so they're best suited for short-term heating in both commercial and domestic settings.
- Convector Heaters: These provide silent, evenly distributed heat, making them a popular choice for offices, lobbies, and reception areas. They use natural convection, which means no noisy fans, and they're generally more cost-effective for long-term heating.
- Electric Radiators: Known for their efficient use of electricity, electric radiators can be wall-mounted and programmed, making them highly versatile. These work well in commercial settings like hotels or domestic spaces like living rooms.
- Oil-Filled Radiators: Cost-efficient for prolonged use, they retain heat even after being switched off. Ideal for guest rooms or lounges in hospitality venues where you want to maintain a cosy atmosphere without constantly running the heater.
What is the Most Efficient Electric Heater?
When it comes to efficiency, infrared heaters are considered one of the best choices. Unlike other heaters that warm the air, infrared heaters warm objects and people directly, reducing wasted energy.
- Outdoor and Infrared Heaters: These heaters are perfect for commercial patios, outdoor dining areas, or domestic garden spaces. Infrared heaters are energy-efficient and ideal for warming up large outdoor areas without the need for excessive energy consumption.
- Smart Thermostats: By integrating a smart thermostat, you can optimise the efficiency of your heating system. These devices allow you to control heating schedules and monitor energy use, making them perfect for both commercial establishments and homes looking to reduce energy bills.
Which Type of Heater Is Best for You?
Understanding the different types of heaters available will help you choose the best option for your specific needs:
- Fan Heaters: Great for fast, focused heat in smaller spaces like guest rooms or offices.
- Convector Heaters: Ideal for larger rooms needing consistent warmth, such as reception areas or conference rooms.
- Electric Radiators: Efficient for both commercial and domestic use, offering programmable settings for maximum control.
- Oil-Filled Radiators: Retain heat longer, making them excellent for guest areas in hotels or homes needing prolonged warmth.
- Outdoor and Infrared Heaters: Highly energy-efficient and perfect for outdoor dining spaces or patios.
- Storage Heaters: Best for businesses that want to take advantage of off-peak electricity tariffs to reduce running costs.
