Product Information

The Diamond Electric Kitchen plinth heater is a great alternative for radiators and electric standing heaters. It has advanced control settings that are easy to use and, of course, effective.

It offers an effective and efficient way to make the most of your central heating and can warm larger rooms up to 27m². In short, the SS5/Dual is all about giving you options–namely, the best option for any season. You’re less likely to enjoy the full benefits of this heater if your floors and rooms stay fairly warm in the Fall and Spring. But if that isn’t the case, you won’t find a better buy than Smith’s SS5/Dual. It may cost a pretty penny upfront, but it will save you in the long run more than any other. On its own merits, though, the Diamond 500 stands out as an exceptional central heating plinth heater. You get a surprising amount of control on what is otherwise a fairly passive system, with three distinct modes of operation.But of course, in heating form must always follow function, and the SS2EW electric plinth heater delivers performance in spade. By default, its heating element runs at 2000W for an output of 6280 BTU/hr. However, you can also cut the power in half (1,000W @ 3410 BTU/hr) to save energy or better fit smaller spaces. As a result, fitting this heater into the plinth below kitchen units is a relatively easy job. Once up and running, it’s an efficient plinth heater, capable of producing a lot of heat and pumping plenty of warm air into the kitchen.

These electric plinth heaters have a slim design that easily fits underneath a regular-sized counter. Like other kitchen units, it is designed to be safe for use in kitchens, bathrooms, or other potentially wet rooms. It gives you energy-efficient heating just about anywhere you want.Our favourite option is the Winterwarm WWFH20E because of its convenient Bluetooth controls, accurate electronic thermostat, programmable weekly timer, and its easy to install and use design that does not have a complicated plug. Keep in mind, there’s no plug with this one–you’ll need to install the 3-core wire into a fuse spur. If you’re not handy with this sort of thing, seek the guidance of a licensed professional. Offering a more subtle, space-saving option compared to traditional radiators, this electric plinth heater is useful in areas like kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms. The plinth heater has a white front grill, allowing it to blend into modern homes, and the design is subtle. The front grill measures just 10 cm high and 50 cm wide.

There are also some disadvantages: as mentioned, they can cost more to run than hydronic plinth heaters, and also the heating element can cause the front grill to get hot. An additional feature, that can improve the versatility of a plinth heater, is a ‘cool fan’ mode. This option can come in useful during summer, allowing the heater to be used year round. This powerful hydronic plinth heater brings you almost instant heat in rooms up to 40 m3. It features power and a temperature switch on the front, giving you easy access to the controls directly on the device. The best way to measure your room’s needs is by obtaining the square footage of your room, then multiply that number by 10. A 150m 2 requires around 1500W, assuming an average ceiling height of 9ft. Compare this to the power output of your chosen heater, or else multiply 1500W by 3.41 to get 5115 BTU/hr for comparison along that metric.

So, why shouldn’t I just use a plug-in space heater or panel radiator?

Running your plinth heater only occasionally, go electric. Not only do they fire up faster, but they actually require less energy to do so than starting your central heating system up from cold. If you’re looking for a great all-round electric plinth heater, it’s hard to do better than the Winterwarm WWFH20E. It easily slots into any available space on your property, requiring only modest DIY expertise to fit (and is a cheap job should you instead opt to hire a professional). All plinth heaters have controls on their facia, which sits not-at-all-conveniently close to the floor. With this in mind, you may think that the hydronic heater wins for convenience, hands down, as you don’t need to get down on your hands and knees to turn it on and off. However, most good electric plinth heaters will ship with some form of remote control so you don’t have to strain yourself. A word on installation, maintenance, and warranty With three heat settings, the heater’s output can be adjusted depending on the temperature of your home. There’s a warm and hot setting, plus a fan-only mode. The fan-only mode can be used on hot days, blowing cold air into the room. Therefore, this plinth heater is useful throughout the seasons. Most of the fans on our list remain quiet while in use; however, when multiple fan speeds are present on a device, you can expect them to make a bit more noise. Taking the time to install your plinth heater accurately and with a snug fit can seriously help reduce and dampen the noise and vibration produced by a plinth heater. Settings and Heating Modes
