If you’re considering installing a super-efficient electric heating system, you’ve probably come across the Fischer brand more than once. But Fischer electric radiators aren’t the only German style modern storage radiators available in the UK. Here at Trust Electric Heating, we invented the only Made in Britain direct acting storage radiator, which was designed on the principles of the German electric radiator; the NEOS. Before you choose Fischer, it might be worth considering other electric heaters on the market.
Our customers rave about how our radiators are not just efficient, but also a cost effective upgrade from their previous systems. Dive into their experiences here.
Imagine a heating system that blends the best of German innovation with British ingenuity, offering efficiency, affordability, warmth, and style - that’s what we promise at Trust Electric Heating. And that’s not all; they also significantly reduce your running costs—by up to 59.4%! Discover how this translates into savings with our Running Cost Guide below, where we break down the numbers and show you the potential impact on your household expenses.
While Fischer electric radiators have identical front and back panels, our NEOS electric radiator stands out. It’s the only modern storage radiator in the UK with a different front panel to back. This uniqueness comes from our globally patented Quadvex technology, reducing heat loss and making us a cut above the rest.
Curious about the science behind it? Conducted as part of our Knowledge Transfer Partnership, this report delves into the intricate details of our Quadvex technology and its efficiency. You can explore this fascinating study here.
But what does this mean for you in terms of savings? We’ve translated the technical insights from this report into a practical Running Cost Guide. This guide breaks down how our Quadvex technology leads to significant savings on your heating bills. It’s designed for everyone, whether you’re a tech enthusiast or just looking for ways to reduce your household expenses.
Here’s where things get really interesting. In the world of electric radiators, the core material plays a pivotal role in performance and efficiency of electric heaters. While Fischer electric radiators utilise a clay core, a traditional choice in radiator design, we’ve taken a different path with our NEOS radiators. Our choice? Soapstone. This isn’t just any rock; it’s a metamorphic marvel, historically used for heating and cooking. Thanks to its robust nature and ability to absorb, hold and radiate heat without burning or melting, our advanced soapstone technology allows us to create radiators that can deliver at least 30 minutes of heat without any energy consumption. Let’s explore why this switch to soapstone marks a significant leap in radiator technology:
High Heat Capacity: Soapstone absorbs and retains heat for long periods of time, this means you will get a consistent room temperature without using electricity.
Durability: Soapstone can withstand very high temperatures without breaking or cracking, this is why the NEOS has a 25 year guarantee.
Non-Porous: Soapstone has a raincoat-like covering which doesn’t absorb water, this prevents cracking and breakage, unlike other stones on the market.
Energy Efficiency: Soapstone stores heat very well once the power is turned off - this will give you heat without using electricity, saving money on your heating bills.
By choosing soapstone for our NEOS radiators, we’re not just offering an alternative to Fischer’s clay core; we’re enhancing your home heating experience with a material that’s durable, efficient, and exceptionally capable of maintaining a comfortable, even temperature in your space. Find out more about soapstone’s incredible properties here.
While Fischer opts for mild steel, we use aluminium for our radiator casings. Why? Because aluminium conducts heat 290% better than mild steel, ensuring quicker and more efficient heat dispersion. Want the scientific details? Steel has a conductivity of 10.1 x 106Siemens/m whereas aluminium 36.9 x 106 Siemens/m; so aluminium is more than three times as conductive as steel. (In simple terms, mild steel holds on to heat whilst aluminium gets rid of heat). For an in-depth comparison, explore these resources on aluminium and steel.
Our partnership with the University of Huddersfield keeps us at the forefront of innovation.

We provide thermostat options for all needs and requirements, from app control to a standard integrated easy-to-use thermostat and the typical wireless control that allows you to create different, controlled heating zones to reduce energy costs. All of our thermostats are easy to control, allowing you to create up to 32 heating zones from your smartphone or control via Alexa. These features help in managing and reducing energy use effectively.
A key difference between Fischer heaters and Trust, is that we also offer an advanced Bluetooth thermostat technology called My Radiator Buddy which includes the innovative Geo Location feature which will automatically lower the temperature when it detects that you’ve left home and then raise it again as you approach the front door.
Also, with the backing of Innovate UK, Trust will be launching their new thermostat C.A.V.E. service which is aimed helping the confined adults and vulnerable market. Read all about it here.
Proudly British, we offer a 25-year manufacturer’s guarantee, significantly longer than Fischer’s 10-year warranty. This isn’t just a radiator; it’s a long-term investment in your future comfort.
