Standard Electric Heating Elements
Standard non-thermostatic heating elements for radiators are designed to provide a steady and reliable source of heat without the need for temperature adjustments. These elements are directly connected to the mains power supply and are typically controlled by a simple on/off switch. This straightforward mechanism makes them very user-friendly, as you can easily turn them on or off as needed.
The primary function of these heating elements is to maintain a consistent temperature, usually in the range of 60°C to 65°C. This temperature is ideal for keeping radiators warm and ensuring that towels remain dry and cozy. Because they do not have a thermostat, they do not adjust the heat output based on the ambient temperature, which means they will continue to provide the same level of heat until they are manually turned off.
Installation of non-thermostatic heating elements is generally uncomplicated, making them a convenient choice for those looking to upgrade their heating system quickly and without much hassle. They are particularly beneficial in scenarios where you do not want to activate the entire central heating system. For example, during the summer months, you might only need a warm towel after a shower, and a non-thermostatic heating element can provide this without heating the entire house.
These elements are also cost-effective and durable, offering a practical solution for maintaining warmth in specific areas of your home. Their simplicity and reliability make them a popular choice for many households.
