Why install an electric radiator?
The electric radiator can be suitable as a primary heating source in a small home, or as a supplementary heating source in a room that is occasionally used (office, bathroom, guest room...).
A quick installation without heavy work
The electric radiator operates without a hydraulic network: it only requires an electrical connection to be put into service. This makes it a perfect solution for light renovations, extensions, or homes not connected to central heating.
Immediate thermal comfort
Recent models provide a stable and well-distributed heat, without drying out the air. They are equipped with precise thermostats and sometimes smart sensors that allow for fine temperature management.
Individual control by room
Each radiator can be adjusted individually or connected to a home automation solution. This allows for a differentiated management of rooms according to their use, resulting in targeted energy savings.
The different types of electric radiators
The choice of radiator depends on the area to be heated, the desired comfort, and your budget. Here are the main technologies available.
Customization options and modern features
Recent electric radiators can be equipped with:
- Programmable electronic thermostats
- Presence or open window detection
- Programmable eco or comfort mode
- Remote control via smartphone or tablet
- Varied designs (white, anthracite, flat, vertical, decorative)
What is the price for installing an electric radiator in Belgium?
The price varies depending on the type of radiator, its power, the chosen technology, and any connectivity or programming options.
Factors to consider
- Type of radiator (inertia, radiant, convector)
- Power in watts (according to area)
- Comfort options (programming, connectivity)
- Necessary electrical work (socket, circuit breaker, dedicated cable)
- Wall-mounted or freestanding

Electric radiators and energy renovation
The electric radiator can be integrated into an energy renovation approach in the following cases:
- Small or very well insulated homes
- Apartments without a communal boiler
- Replacement of old energy-consuming convectors
- Secondary rooms (veranda, guest room, bathroom)
It can be combined with green electricity production (e.g.: solar panels) to reduce its carbon footprint.
Assistance and taxation in Belgium
Electric radiators alone are generally not subsidized, unless they are integrated into a comprehensive energy strategy, notably:
- Complete renovation with PEB audit
- Smart home automation installation
- Supply through photovoltaic self-consumption
Our teams can advise you on tax optimization and integration into a global project to benefit from certain indirect aids.

FAQ – Electric radiator and energy renovation in Belgium
Are electric radiators suitable for energy renovation?
Yes, in certain configurations. Recent electric radiators, especially those with inertia or remote control, are much more efficient than old convectors. They can be integrated into a partial renovation or a well-insulated small housing, replacing an obsolete or energy-consuming system.
Can you benefit from a grant for the installation of electric radiators?
Not directly. In Belgium, electric radiators alone are not eligible for regional grants. However, if they are part of a comprehensive energy renovation strategy (for example: insulation, home automation regulation, self-consumption via photovoltaic panels), they can contribute to improving the energy performance certificate (EPC) of the housing, which may enhance eligibility for other aids.
What type of electric radiator is most suitable for a renovated home?
For good thermal comfort and control of consumption, we recommend:
- Fluid or dry inertia radiators, for their ability to provide soft and stable heat
- Connected or programmable radiators, to avoid unnecessary overheating
- Models with properly sized power based on the room and its usage
We always perform a power calculation room by room to ensure the system's efficiency.
Is it possible to control electric radiators remotely?
Yes. Many current models are compatible with smart heating management systems via smartphone, tablet, or voice assistants. This allows you to program the temperature by room, automatically turn off the heating when absent, and thus reduce energy expenses by 10 to 15%.
Is electric heating compatible with a solar installation?
Yes. If your home is equipped with photovoltaic panels, the installation of optimized and controlled electric radiators can allow for intelligent use of the produced electricity, in self-consumption. This enhances the energy coherence of your renovation, especially in homes without city gas.
