Installed Heating
Installed heating from Dimplex provides a robust, permanent, fitted electric powered system that is suitable for all types of room or for the whole home.
With the UK’s ongoing efforts to decarbonise heating, Dimplex electric heating solutions are a perfect solution: they are easy to install and offer great functionality and efficient energy use. There are two types of installed electric heater: direct-acting heaters which use standard rate electricity for instant heat, and storage heaters that absorb energy supplied at a lower price for slow release later.
What does electric heating mean to you?
Lower costs
Lower upfront costs when building or renovating a home, enabling faster build with greater freedom. Little to no service or maintenance required once installed.
Environmentally friendly solution
No carbon dioxide output helping to reduce carbon footprint of your home, helping to reduce environmental impact.
Saving money on energy bills
Take advantage of smart energy tariffs designed for modern storage heating, such as British Gas Dimplex Quantum Tariff
Smart heating controls
Helping you to manage your heating efficiently by responding to changing weather conditions and your requirements to maintain your ideal room temperature.

Storage Heaters
Storage heaters are electrical heaters that store heat generated from low-cost nighttime electricity and release it during the day.
Panel Heaters
Panel heaters are direct-acting heaters, able to heat a space up quickly by convection, and are a great solution for when instant heat is required.
Fan Heaters
Fan heaters work by using a fan to pass air over a heat source. The more air passes across the heating element the more quickly the temperature will rise in that area.
Featured product
Quantum
Designed, developed and manufactured in the UK by Dimplex, it stores up low-cost, off-peak energy to be used on demand through the day, making it the most economical electric heating on the market today
Towel Rails
Designed to provide warm, dry towels all year round, our range of towel rails can also provide background or full heat to help you meet your home’s unique demands.
Electric Radiators
Dimplex Electric Radiators are designed to perform and function in a similar way to traditional wet-filled radiators.
Supplementary Heaters
Heating products that address often difficult-to-heat areas such as conservatories, patios, garages and workshops, utility room, cupboards or corridors.
Water Cylinders
Electric water heating is an efficient method of heating water directly with electric immersion, reducing energy losses than can be experienced from pipework, and circulating pumps
Featured product
Q-Rad
Q-Rad is our most intelligent, Lot 20 compliant electric radiator yet, with attractive styling to match the Quantum off-peak storage range. It provides instant warmth through dual-element technology.

Zeroth Energy System and district heat networks
The tightening timescales for reaching the 2050 net-zero carbon target require us to accelerate our efforts at the decarbonisation of heat. Ambient loop systems, such as the Zeroth Energy System, are being increasingly specified for multi-occupancy developments due to their high efficiency and capability to reduce a building’s CO2 emissions.This raises the question: can the Zeroth Energy System be specified in a district heating priority area, and can it connect to the district heating network?
Will the outcomes of COP26 significantly speed up the uptake of low carbon technologies?
We are all waiting to see what the real impact will be from the climate summit COP26 for the construction sector, specifically with regard to the decarbonisation of heat. One of the insights that came out of the second day of the summit, which featured a session on clean technology and innovation, was delivered by UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson:
‘By making clean technology the most affordable, accessible and attractive choice, the default go-to in what are currently the most polluting sectors, we can cut emissions right around the world’.
Which heating and cooling emitters can I use with a heat pump?
Any hydronic heating and cooling emitter such as fan coils, radiators or trench heating, could be used with a heat pump.
There are a number of factors, however, which will ultimately impact the final specification. These include thermal requirements, such as whether the building needs heating only or heating and cooling, control requirements and design preferences, such as whether to have the emitter recessed or on view.
