The Ultimate Hybrid Heating Solution

The NEOS Electric Heater is a hybrid electric heater, uniquely designed to deliver warmth and comfort while ensuring remarkable energy efficiency. Combining the benefits of direct acting heating and stored heat, the NEOS provides the best of both worlds: direct warmth when you need it, and stored heat without continuous electricity use.

Let’s explain what that actually means for you and your home…

How Does the NEOS Work?

As a hybrid electric heater, the NEOS combines direct heat and stored heat for optimal performance:

• Direct Acting Heat: When you switch on the NEOS, it uses electricity to quickly warm up, providing an boost of heat to your space.

• Stored Heat Release: Once the radiator reaches the desired temperature, it stops consuming electricity, and then it releases heat from its internal storage core, maintaining a comfortable temperature without needing continuous power for around 30-40 minutes (depending on the nature of your property due to factors such as insulation, age build type etc).

This intelligent heating system operates in an on/off usage cycle, turning on to heat up quickly and then switching off while continuing to release stored heat. Unlike standard direct acting electric radiators, which typically need to remain consistently on to maintain a comfortable temperature, the NEOS delivers efficient, uninterrupted heating while consuming far less energy. This reduces energy consumption significantly, all while keeping your home warm and comfortable.

Please note: The NEOS is not a storage radiator and runs off a standard tariff, not Economy 7  or Economy 10 tariffs.

The Three Core Innovations That Power the NEOS

Soapstone Core

The Heart of Stored Heat Efficiency

The NEOS features an advanced soapstone core, a metamorphic rock renowned for its excellent heat-retention properties.

• Benefit: Our unique core stores heat while the radiator is on, then releases it gradually for long-lasting warmth without using additional electricity.

Cool Wall Patented Technology

Superior Heat Distribution

At the cutting edge of heating innovation, the Cool Wall technology ensures that minimal heat is lost to the back wall of the radiator. The technology mimics the popular hack of putting foil behind radiators to reflect heat but delivers the benefit without any DIY effort.

• Benefit: Every corner of your space stays warm and comfortable, with minimal cold spots or wasted energy, maximising the warmth delivered to your room. 

Aluminum Construction

Lightweight and Fast Heating

The NEOS is built with high-quality, recyclable aluminum, a material chosen for its ability to heat up 2.9 x faster than mild steel.

• Benefit: Warmth when needed, combined with a sleek, modern design that seamlessly fits into any home.

Benefits of the NEOS Hybrid Radiator

• Save on Heating Bills: The NEOS offers an impressive 59.4% saving on heating costs compared to standard electric radiators. By relying on stored heat, it uses less electricity over time, ensuring significant cost savings without sacrificing comfort.

• Consistent Comfort: Enjoy even, uninterrupted heating throughout the day. The NEOS adapts to your needs, seamlessly switching between direct heat and stored heat to maintain a comfortable temperature.

• Patented Convected Heating: The NEOS uses a convected heating method to evenly circulate warm air throughout the room. This ensures consistent, all-around comfort without cold spots, making it perfect for maintaining a cosy atmosphere in any space.

Why Choose a Hybrid Radiator?

A hybrid radiator is the perfect balance between modern technology and energy efficiency:

• Direct Acting Heat: Faster, immediate warmth when needed.

• Stored Heat: Stored warmth for long-lasting comfort, even when the radiator isn’t actively using electricity.

This dual-functionality ensures that you stay comfortable and warm while potentially reducing energy usage. It’s an ideal solution for homes looking to combine comfort with affordability.
