Our top 5 most efficient aluminium radiators

Buying radiators made of aluminium is not always the first choice that springs to mind, but there are a number of reasons why why they should be considered.

Aluminium is the most abundant and recycled metal on earth. It's pretty cheap and easy to recycle compared to many other metals, which means buying a radiator made from this metal will mean you are doing your bit for the environment.

All of the aluminium radiators on our website contain recycled aluminium. This means that the Earth is not being stripped of its assets and there is no cost associated with extracting aluminium from the ground. When your radiator comes to the end of its natural life, you'll be safe in the knowledge that it can be melted down and put back into use for future generations.

Because aluminium weighs so little, it means that the cost of transporting it is much less than a heavier material like cast iron.

As a result, transportation costs, delivery costs and installation costs are often much lower because aluminium radiators aren't very heavy. These savings are often passed onto the customer, making aluminium rads very good value for money.

Aluminium is also easy to manipulate, bend and shape without losing its strength. Because of its pliability, some of the most amazing and stylish radiator designers are created with aluminium.

The most important benefit of installing aluminium radiators in your home is the fact they are such a brilliant conductor of heat. This means that they heat up to your desired temperature very quickly, using less gas and water than other types of radiator. Y

ou'll notice a difference in your energy bills because much less energy is wasted in getting your home warmed up to the temperature you want with aluminium radiators. You'll also notice that the heat outputs of aluminium radiators are often much higher than other radiators of similar dimensions.

As well as installing them in your most used rooms, many people also decide to use them in rooms that are used less often, like a conservatory, garage or attic. When that room is used, having an aluminium radiator installed means it will get up to temperature very quickly. A real plus, especially as many little-used rooms can feel extra cold and take longer to heat through.

The list below contains some of our most popular and efficient aluminium rads on our website.

Our Aphex range of aluminium radiators are incredibly popular due to their stylish design and range of options. Available in white, anthracite or black, these stunners also come with a choice of single or double panels and a smooth or grooved finish.
