  • What is LOT20?
    LOT20 is the new EU legislation as of january 2018, designed to remove inefficient products and technologies from the market. Part of ECOdesign directive, LOT20 concerns local space heaters, inclduing those those with solid fuel. It states all local space heaters that consume energy (electrcity, gas or liquid) with nominal heat output equal to or greater than 250W, must comply with minimum energy effiiency standard, which Ascot electric heating products achieve and even exceeds. In relation to Ascot fluid heating, the incorperation of smart technology such as open window sensors, 24/7 programmable timer, built in thermostat and wi-fi technolgy make for a significant improvement on the outdated storage heaters that many associate with electric heating.
  • Shall I install Ascot Fluid radiators or Ascot dry radiators
    How do different types of heating work? The main difference is in the way the emit heat. Ascot thermo-fluid radiators have an element which heat the fluid inside. this is what transfers the energy into heat. this in turn wams the surface of the radiator, resulting in the radiant transfer of heat to objects and people in the room. Ascot dry radiators have an internal element that produces hot air, which rises and then convects around the room.
  • What is more efficient Fluid or Dry heating?
    Ascot fluid radiators heat the thermo-fluid heat the oil inside the elements, and as the oil is inertia, the heat will remain within the fluids. this means that a) the radiator will not require to draw as much power to maintain comfortable room temperature, and b) the radiator will take longer to cool down after, therefore still radiating heat whilst no power is being drawn. Ascot dry panel heaters produce hot air at a rate that doesnt change respective to the room temperature. they also lose heat quickly once power has been cut. These heaters do, however, heat a space far quicker than thermo-fluid radiators, and turn off instantly when required.

In order to maximise your Ascot heater in the most effective way possible, follow the best practice guidelines below: We recommend that whilst using comfort mode, the temperature is set to 21 degree to prevent excessive consumption but maintaining a comfortable living or working temperature. We advise that you do not cover Ascot heaters, as this will have an effect on how the heat is emitted through the space and on the effeciency and cost. Find correct programming structure that works for you wityhout being excessive. We recommend that comfort mode is set in a couple of 4-hour timeslots per day, whilst anti-frost/eco mode is set during the other hours. this will ensure that space does not become uncomfortably cold without the radiator drawing too much power.
