Innovative and environmentally friendly processes have been developed by EcoRad to transform cast iron radiators.
 
EcoRad say the advantages of their electric radiator system include, "programmable individual thermostats, heat absorbing capacity, more energy efficient than traditional hot-water or steam heating systems, fire proof, healthier and more comfortable heat than forced air or convection heating systems, environmentally responsible and use materials that are 99 percent recycled"
 
"The installation is as simple as an electric baseboard heater." EcoRad say, "A specially manufactured internally installed electric element replaces the extensive water piping
system needed for a central furnace. Having each radiator connected to a programmable thermostat allows heating preferences by room as opposed to one central setting."
 
"Recycling old cast iron radiators avoids the practice of melting them down and releasing 44kg of greenhouse gases for each 100kg of melted cast iron. Household radiators weigh on average, 100 to 200kg."
