How it works

Electric Radiator Fitting Service

Supply and installation, hard-wired and commissioned properly — not hung on a bracket and plugged into the nearest socket.

Certified & registered

  • MCS Certified
  • NAPIT Approved
  • RECC Registered
  • Approved Sunamp Installer

Fitted properly

Electric radiators should be hard-wired onto a fused spur rather than left on a plug and a trailing lead. That means a tidy installation, no cable across the skirting, and no risk of the heater being unplugged for the vacuum and never switched back on.

Set up before we leave

Most of the saving in a modern electric heating system comes from the controls, and most of that benefit is lost if nobody knows how to use them. We set up the schedules with you and make sure you can change them yourself.

Removal, disposal, installation — then training

The fitting service is the whole switchover, not just the hanging of radiators. We remove the old system — gas, storage heaters, oil or LPG — dispose of it under licence, install and commission the new radiators, and then show you how to run them before we leave. It is designed so that your side of the job stays small.

Certified people, certified work

Our engineers are trained for the work and carry the relevant qualifications and independent testing certification for it. Every installation is signed off with installation and minor works certificates, and the fitting itself — like the radiators — is covered by a 15-year warranty, with the certificates supplied together at handover.

Suitability

Where it suits — and where it doesn't

Switching from gas, oil or LPG

The service covers capping off and removing the old system as part of the changeover — one team, one job.

Replacing storage heaters

Old units are stripped, removed and disposed of — bricks included — before the new radiators go up.

New builds and extensions

A clean first installation, sized room by room from the plans or the survey.

Anywhere on the South Coast

The fitting service runs across the South Coast, planned around a free home survey.

The scope

What's included

  • Hard-wired, not plugged in
  • Correct fixings for the wall type
  • Controls set up and explained
  • Old units removed and taken away

How the job runs

  1. Free home survey

    We visit, measure each room and look at how you actually live in the house. Heat output is sized per room — a guess made over the phone is how people end up cold in the room they use most.

  2. A written recommendation

    You get a clear proposal setting out what we would install, why that specification, and what it costs. No pressure and no obligation to go ahead.

  3. Removal and disposal

    Removal and disposal of old storage heaters, convector heaters, boilers and cylinders is part of the job, and we make good afterwards.

  4. Installation and handover

    We install, test and then show you how to run it. Getting the controls right is most of the saving, so we do not leave until you know how to use them.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is switching heating systems disruptive?
Less than people expect. Whichever system you are switching from, the process is straightforward and you are guided through it by your appointed representative. Our engineers use full floor protection, leave work areas clean and tidy, and can even assist with tariff switching so the new system runs on the right rate from day one.
What paperwork do I get?
Installation and minor works certificates for the electrical work, plus the warranty certificate for the 15-year cover on the fitting and the products — all provided on completion.
Which systems can you switch from?
Gas, old storage heaters, oil and LPG — plus complete first installations for new builds. Removal and licensed disposal of whatever is there now is part of the service.
What can I replace my night storage heaters with?
Usually either modern electric radiators controlled room by room, or high heat retention storage heaters where your tariff still rewards off-peak charging. Which suits you depends on the tariff, the building and how you use the house — that is what the free survey establishes.
Which electric radiator is the most efficient?
Honestly, they are all essentially 100% efficient at the point of use — every unit of electricity becomes heat in the room. What varies between systems is control: whether you can heat only the rooms you are using, only when you are using them. That is where the saving comes from, not from any particular radiator.
Can I replace my gas boiler with electric heating?
Yes. We replace gas boilers and their radiator circuits with electric heating and hot water, which removes the flue, the gas connection and the annual gas safety inspection. Electricity costs more per unit than gas, so at survey we will be straight with you about running costs and about whether solar or battery storage changes the picture.
Do you remove and dispose of the old system?
Yes. Removal and disposal of old storage heaters, convector heaters, boilers and cylinders is part of the job, and we make good afterwards.
What areas do you cover?
We are based in Bournemouth and work across Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire, Somerset and Devon, and into West Sussex, Surrey, London, Kent, East Sussex and Oxfordshire.
Are you certified?
Yes. Dynamic Heaters is MCS certified, NAPIT approved, RECC registered and an approved Sunamp installer.
Do you charge for a survey?
No. The home survey and the written recommendation that follows it are free and carry no obligation.
Do you work on social housing and commercial projects?
Yes. Alongside private homes we have completed social housing heating and hot water upgrades, including a New Forest District Council project covering sixteen properties, and community buildings such as a village hall in Lytchett Matravers.
