Ever wondered when the best time is to turn your heating on in autumn? This is a question we get asked a lot.
Come autumn, the colder weather has begun, and we will soon need to switch on the heating system as the days are getting colder. So, how can you delay using the full heating system for as long as possible, but still be warm and comfortable while showering and dressing in the mornings and evenings?
Experts recommend turning on your central heating on around end of October, as this is when daylight saving time ends and temperatures begin to fall.
Install an Electric Towel Radiator
It only needs a small vertical section of wall and your bathroom or kitchen can be warm and cosy in minutes. Warm to get in and out of the shower and drape your clothes on it before dressing to get warm and stay warm from the inside out. No need to run a 30 Kilowatt Gas Boiler (and wake everyone in the house), no need to heat up every room before you get any slight warmth in the bathroom or kitchen. Get heat instantly, when you need it, for just as long as you need.
When you switch the electric towel radiator off, it will still radiate its residual heat for long enough to dry off the wet towels and stay warm enough for the ladies to do your hair, or apply your makeup and for the men to shave and contemplate the day’s activities.
You should be able to delay turning on the heating system until the temperature drops below 5 degrees, but for September and October, you could make up to a 35% saving on your energy bill this quarter, and still keep warm and cosy.
Here are 3 ways that replacing your current system with IntelliHeat Electric Radiators will fulfil all these requirements AND give you up to 35% reduction in your current fuel bills, with no annual maintenance or servicing costs – EVER!
• Reduction in energy consumption: the patented core class 2 double insulated element inside each Electric Towel Radiator drastically reduces energy consumption. It heats up twice as fast as other brand radiators, and the aluminium radiators mean that heat is transferred directly into the air, without losing any of its heat in the process. Unlike Gas heating systems, where much of the heat is lost in the labyrinth of water pipes under your floors, needlessly heating uninhabitable spaces.
• Reducing Carbon Footprint: With no more flue gasses pumping out into the street, you will be making a major stand in reducing the air pollution in your neighbourhood and of course, removing all risks of carbon Monoxide poisoning for your family.
• Renewable Energy source: IntelliHeat Electric Towel Radiator can be integrated with solar and photovoltaic panels, allowing you to make maximum use of renewable energy sources. Power your own heating system and recover the costs of your solar panel installation, even faster.

Upgrade your thermostat to save money on bills
Future-proof your home or office by upgrading to an Intelli Heat smart thermostat, which can be controlled from your phone or pc, will increase your home’s value and desirability to buyers, but smart thermostats can also provide greater accuracy in thermostat to individually radiators communication, preventing energy from being wasted.
When the temperature in the room gets warmer then it should be, the thermostat kicks in, the iSense perfectly regulates the desired temperature of the room (by 0.1 degree) keeping it consistent. When the desired temperature is achieved, the thermostat cycles by turning off and begins again as needed. f it is old or malfunctioning, you will either find that the room is too warm or too cold for comfort, and that you will pay a fortune in electricity bills.
If you are looking to reduce energy bills while increasing convenience and comfort, upgrading your thermostat will allow you to enjoy energy savings that directly translates to money savings, replacing your old storage heaters, boiler with either a fully programmable or i-SENSE smart thermostat is a move that we highly recommend.
