Electric heating

Electric heaters - heat that adapts

Do you want to heat quickly and directly - without long waiting times or complex installations? An electric heater provides precise heat exactly where it is needed. Whether in the bathroom, bedroom, guest room or holiday home: this heating system adapts flexibly to your everyday life.

Why do so many people opt for electric heating?

Many living situations require modern solutions. Radiators that only work when they are really needed offer comfort and control. Electric heaters deliver exactly that. They regulate the room temperature precisely, are easy to install and do not require any complex connection work.

The advantages are obvious:

• Instant heat at the touch of a button
• Simple installation, often without any tradesmen
• No boiler room required
• Can be used flexibly, even in old buildings or outbuildings
• Can be perfectly combined with photovoltaics or green electricity

Impressive variety: types of electric heaters

Infrared heaters - heat like from the sun

This heating technology does not heat the air, but directly heats surfaces, people and furniture in the room. The result: a pleasant, healthy feeling of warmth - without raising dust.

Advantages of infrared heating:

• Pleasant radiant heat
• Low air circulation - good for allergies
• Modern design - can often be used as a picture heater

Modern infrared radiators are now replacing traditional radiators in many households - especially where targeted heat is required.

Electric oil radiators - the mobile heating alternative

Electric oil radiators combine proven technology with modern ease of use. They heat a special heat transfer oil inside, which transfers the heat evenly to the room via the metal surface. Once heated, they keep the room temperature constant - even after the appliance has been disconnected from the power supply.

Special advantages:

• Long-lasting heat, even after switching off
• Quiet operation - ideal for the bedroom or office
• Mobile use thanks to castors and carrying handle
• No drying out of the air

Mobile electric radiators such as the oil radiator are particularly suitable for rooms that only need to be heated occasionally - for example in the conservatory, basement or guest room.

Smart heating technology for more comfort

Modern electric heaters can be controlled using timers, thermostats or even an app. This allows you to stay in control at all times - even when you're on the move. You only heat when you really need to. This saves energy and protects the environment.

Typical control options:

Room thermostats with precision setting

Daily and weekly programmes

App or voice control (e.g. via Smart Home)

Where is electric heating particularly worthwhile?

Not every property is suitable for classic central heating. Electric heating scores particularly well in these cases:

• Old buildings with poor insulation: A centralised solution cannot always be implemented here. Mobile electric radiators can be placed in specific locations and operated as required.
• Holiday flats: Only heat when guests are present? No problem - electric heaters respond immediately.
• Garden sheds and hobby rooms: Warm and cosy even without a heating connection.
• Bathrooms: Warm feet quickly? A fan heater or infrared heating panel is ideal as a bathroom heater, ensuring an instant cosy temperature.

Modern design instead of bulky radiators

Electric heaters are not only functional, they also look good. From elegant glass radiators to inconspicuous wall heating in the form of a picture - the choice is diverse. There is a suitable solution for every interior.

Design variants at a glance:

• Flat glass or ceramic fronts
• Mirror heaters for bathrooms
• Motif print or natural stone look
• Free-standing designer appliances with castors

Mobile electric radiators are also becoming increasingly high-quality in terms of design and material - for rooms where function and aesthetics are equally important.

Sustainable combination with green electricity

Those who opt for an electric heater often also think sustainably. Operation with green electricity makes them CO₂-neutral. In combination with photovoltaic systems or electricity storage units, you can even heat independently. Electric heating systems offer a well thought-out and clean solution, especially in new builds with their own solar system.

Ensure safety

Electric radiators are regarded as very safe heating systems. Nevertheless, it is worth paying attention to quality. Pay attention to:

• Overheating protection
• Child safety lock
• Splash water protection, especially in the bathroom
• Certificates such as TÜV, CE or GS

Maintenance-free - more time for important things

In contrast to conventional systems, electric heating does not require regular maintenance. No chimney sweep, no maintenance contract, no service costs. This reduces effort - and costs in the long term.

Frequently asked questions about electric heating

What are the operating costs of electric heating?

The electricity costs depend on the tariff and consumption. If you opt for green electricity or use your own PV system, you can significantly reduce your costs.

Can I heat an entire house with electric heating?

Yes, especially in well-insulated new buildings or as a supplement to existing systems. The heat output must be matched to the room size and the desired room temperature.

Are infrared heaters harmful to health?

No. On the contrary: the radiant heat is perceived as very pleasant and is even suitable for allergy sufferers, as it hardly stirs up any dust.

How does control via app work?

Many modern devices can be connected via WLAN. You can set the temperature and heating times conveniently via smartphone using an app - even when you're on the move.

Are there subsidies for electric heating systems?

There are currently no standardised subsidy programmes for purely electric heating systems. However, in combination with photovoltaics or as a supplement to regenerative systems, a subsidy may be worthwhile.
