Could not be happier
From start to finish, everything went exactly as expected. The product arrived when it was supposed to, delivery was straightforward, and there were no issues at all with the materials supplied.
The installation instructions and accompanying videos are extremely helpful and make the whole process much easier than fitting traditional radiators. Since installation, the system has worked exactly as I expected it to and performs very well. I could not be happier with it.
One of the key reasons I chose this system is that it looks and acts like a skirting board. That was very important to me and it works extremely well in that respect. The finish is excellent and you genuinely would not know it was not a standard skirting board. Another major benefit for me is that I have got my wall space back. Not having radiators fixed to the walls makes a huge difference, as it allows furniture to be placed properly without a radiator dictating where things can or cannot go.
The first installation I completed was a six-metre length in my hallway. Previously there had been a small radiator there which never worked particularly well. Since installing ThermaSkirt, the heat output has been fantastic. It now heats not only the hallway and entrance to the house, but the warmth also rises up the stairs and onto the first-floor landing, which has made a noticeable difference.
My system is a wet system. I have not used the electric version yet, although I may consider it in the future when my kitchen is refurbished. That said, I may well stay with the wet system. In terms of running costs, it is still early days, so I cannot yet comment fully on the long-term economics, although I have not noticed any significant variation so far. Once I expand the system to the rest of the house, which I fully intend to do, I will be looking more closely at how the overall costs balance out.
In my opinion, it is no more expensive than fitting standard radiators and is a much easier process overall. The performance and appearance have exceeded my expectations. Even my cat, Larry, approves and regularly lies next to it to enjoy the warmth.
Based on my experience so far, it is an extremely good product and one I would happily recommend.
