Vasilij and team did an outstanding job with our recent house renovations. Their work was exceptional including flooring, tiling, painting plumbing/bathroom installation and other works. The team was always so pleasant, hardworking, diligent and professional. They were also great for coming up with ideas and solutions to make things work, even if not straightforward. They transformed our home beautifully and I would highly recommend!

I recently had my bathroom renovated by VJ and his team and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the initial consultation to the final touches, the entire team was professional, friendly, and incredibly skilled. They took the time to understand my vision and offered valuable suggestions that really enhanced the overall design. The quality of their work is outstanding, and they paid attention to every detail, ensuring everything was perfect. I highly recommend VJ to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy builders.

Vasilij and the team are just incredible. Super clean, timely and their work is just wow. We used the team to help with some large works to our house last year which included levelling and laying new wooden floors, carpet upstairs, insulation/repair and minor repairs and painting to the house. All works were completed in perfect order and all communication/interaction was professional start to finish.

Things to consider when installing new rad covers

Maintenance

Professional installation ensures proper fit and safety, typically taking 1-2 hours per cover. Regular maintenance, including dusting and occasional repainting, extends the cover’s lifespan. Removable covers facilitate easier radiator maintenance. Consider covers with easy-access panels for thermostat adjustment, which can save up to 10% on heating costs through better temperature control.

Material Options

Common materials include MDF (€20-€40/m²), solid wood like pine or oak (€50-€80/m²), and metal (€70-€120/m²). MDF is cost-effective and easy to paint, while solid wood offers durability and a premium look. Metal covers provide excellent heat conductivity. Consider moisture-resistant options for bathrooms and kitchens. Each material affects heat distribution differently, so consult with professionals for the best choice.

Design and Customisation

Radiator covers come in various styles, from traditional to modern. Custom designs can increase costs by 30-50% but offer a perfect fit and match to your decor. Standard sizes typically fit 60-70% of radiators, while bespoke options cater to unusual sizes or shapes. Consider factors like skirting board height and room aesthetics when choosing a design.

Radiator Cover Benefits

Energy Efficiency

Contrary to popular belief, well-designed radiator covers can improve heating efficiency. They redirect heat into the room rather than towards walls, potentially reducing energy bills by 5-10%. In Ireland, where the average annual heating cost is €1,500, this could save households €75-€150 per year.

Improved Safety

Radiator covers provide a protective barrier, reducing the risk of accidental burns. This is crucial in Irish homes, where 28% of households have children under 14. Covers can lower surface temperatures by up to 20°C, significantly reducing burn risks. They also prevent items from falling behind radiators, a common issue in 35% of Irish households.

Additional Storage

Many radiator covers feature a shelf top, providing extra storage or display space. This is particularly beneficial in Irish homes, where the average house size is 81m², smaller than the EU average. A typical radiator cover can add up to 0.5m² of usable surface area per radiator, maximising space utilisation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got more questions about your project? Call 01 270 9764 for additional information.

Radiator covers serve multiple purposes: 1) Aesthetics: They conceal unsightly radiators, enhancing room decor. 2) Safety: They reduce burn risks, especially important in homes with children or elderly, where 28% of Irish households have children under 14. 3) Additional storage: Many covers provide a shelf, adding up to 0.5m² of usable surface area per radiator. 4) Heat distribution: Well-designed covers can improve heat circulation by up to 25%. 

Yes, radiator covers are generally safe when properly installed. They can reduce surface temperatures by up to 20°C, significantly lowering burn risks. In Ireland, where 60% of homes use central heating, covers provide an extra safety layer. However, ensure covers have adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Choose fire-resistant materials like MDF or metal. 

Contrary to common belief, well-designed radiator covers don’t significantly block heat. They can redirect heat into the room rather than towards walls, potentially improving efficiency by 5-10%. However, poorly designed covers can reduce efficiency by up to 20%. Ensure covers have proper ventilation (at least 20% open area) and reflective backing.

Yes, most radiator covers can be painted. For MDF covers (€20-€40/m²), use a primer and water-based paint. Metal covers (€70-€120/m²) require metal-specific paint. Painting can refresh the look every 3-5 years. Use heat-resistant paint for areas closest to the radiator. A DIY paint job costs €30-€50 per cover, while professional painting ranges from €100-€200. Ensure paint doesn’t block ventilation slots.

While possible, it’s not ideal to place a TV above a radiator cover. Heat can damage electronics, potentially reducing a TV’s lifespan by 30-50%. If unavoidable, ensure at least 10-15cm clearance above the cover. Use a wall-mounted TV bracket to create more space. Consider a heat-deflecting shelf between the cover and TV.
