Save Money and valuable Energy with Radiator BOOster™ 2

• Now with automatic thermostat control – switches on at approx. 32 degrees Celsius
• Now adjustable to fit smaller and larger radiators
• Now made from recyclable Polycarbonate
• Now manufactured with one (more powerful) fan for quieter and cheaper running
• Will save an average household between £70 to £140 on heating bills per annum

Radiator BOOster™ is an Innovative and Brand New product that can;

Heat your room faster, save energy at the same time and reduce your heating bills.
Simply place a Radiator BOOster™ on the top/rear of a standard domestic water filled radiator, plug it in, and away it goes.

This ingenious and unique UK Registered design uses miniature 12-volt electric fans to suck the heated air from behind the radiator, firing it into your room far quicker than any natural convection in addition to reducing the heat losses through the wall behind your radiator. Heating rooms quicker allows your heating system to shut down far sooner, saving you huge amounts of energy.

Help reduce emissions and cut your energy bills, all for a running cost of about 30p a year!

Place on top of a conventional radiator, switch on and reduce heating time
and cost by as much as 50%. Costs approx. 30p per annum to run. 

How does Radiator BOOster™ 2 actually work and save energy?

This ingenious device works in 2 ways;

1) Your central heating boiler will use around 15 kilowatts of energy every hour (some even more).

The clever fan arrangement within the Radiator BOOster™ draws heat from your radiator, heating your room in up to half the time, allowing your boiler to shut down much sooner. If you could save just one hour a week of your boiler working, you would save 15 kilowatts of energy. You could easily find the savings more than this, between 7 and 14 hours/week (over 100 kilowatts) during the colder months.

2) As your radiator heats up, the ‘rear’ surface normally radiates heat onto your wall, heating this up, which in turn is lost through the wall structure due to conduction. The Radiator BOOster™ sucks most of this wasted heat and fires it into your room, significantly reducing the losses, saving you even more energy. It really is as simple as that!

How much energy does it really save?

This will depend on how you use the Radiator BOOster, and for how long. But UK energy providers state that reducing your thermostat setting by one degree Celsius could save the average home £70/year or 10% of your heating bills. Most tests carried out with Radiator BOOster™ have achieved more than 2 degrees reduction.

Can it be used with Radiator Covers?

YES. Most definitely. Provided you can fit the device in place under your cover, you will save up to 3 times as much energy. Covers prevent a radiator from ‘radiating’ its heat, relying solely on ‘convection’. Radiator BOOster™ enhances that convection at least three fold, distributing huge amounts of trapped heat.

Can I leave it running 24/7?

YES. As the new Radiator BOOster™ 2 has in built thermostat that switches on at around 32 degrees Celsius and switches off when the radiator temperature drops below this point. Should I turn it off when my radiator cools down? This is an option, but is not necessary as the thermostat control will automatically control the use of the integral fan.

Could I plug it into a timer unit to avoid me remembering to turn it on/off?

Yes. A standard ‘event timer’ could be used, the power supply plugged straight into it.

Surely the materials used to manufacture the Radiator BOOster™ themselves impact on the world’s resources?

Yes, this is true. But we have designed the product to use the absolute minimum of materials and substances, and in return achieve huge energy savings over many years. The ‘trade-off’ is well worth doing. The Radiator BOOster™ 2 is also fully recyclable.

My radiator is very long. Do I need to use two of these?

You can do, but it should not be necessary. The simple movement of air created by Radiator BOOster™ will normally lead to good convection in your room.

Where should I place it on my radiator?

As far to the back and centralised along the length of your radiator should optimise the performance. However, if you place it to one end, it should still work adequately. On some radiator designs you will find that the device will drop down slightly behind the top of the radiator. This further enhances the performance.

Can I use it on oil filled radiators, electric storage radiators, or electric convection radiators?

NO. These types of radiator reach far higher surface temperatures than water filled radiators. These higher temperatures will distort and damage the housing and fans of Radiator BOOster™.

Can I use it in my bathroom, shower room, sauna room, outbuilding, etc?

NO! Radiator BOOster™ must not be used in a damp or humid environment under any circumstances.

How much electricity does it use, and is it safety approved?

The Radiator BOOster™ has been tested and approved by an independent laboratory, and conforms to all aspects of CE Certification. Each fan is rated at < 1.0 watt, 12v DC, and each unit is supplied complete with a full set of instructions. Should you operate a Radiator BOOster™ for 500 hours, it should use approximately 1kW of electricity (less than 13p for most homes).

Will I need to put one of these in every room?

We would recommend you place one in each room that you regularly use, but it shouldn’t be necessary for other rooms. After all, you could unplug and move one very easily if necessary.

My nearest power socket is a long way from my radiator?

Each unit comes fitted with a 1.8metre power lead, which should suit most situations. However, there is a 2-metre extension lead available, Part.No. EL-RB1
