Electric radiator installation across Ferndown
We serve Ferndown from our base in Poole.
What happens on the day
Every electric radiator installation is completed systematically, checking the electrical supply thoroughly before mounting hardware and powering on the new system.
- Initial inspection and circuit assessmentOn arrival at the property, we examine the rooms requiring heat and inspect the consumer unit and existing cabling. We test the proposed supply to verify it can safely carry the electrical load required by the new radiators.
- Mounting and electrical connectionThe radiator brackets are fixed securely to the wall, and the unit is hung level. We route the cabling into a switched fused spur or dedicated isolator, connecting all conductors and protective bonding according to current regulations.
- Testing and functional checksOnce wired, the circuit is energised and tested using calibrated instruments. We verify earth fault loop impedance, check insulation resistance, test the protective devices, and demonstrate how to program the timer and thermostat.
- Clean finish and certificationWe clear away packaging and debris generated around the fixings. All completed installation work is certificated, giving you formal documentation that the heating circuit meets national safety standards.

WhatsAppCan an electric radiator use an existing socket circuit?
Some smaller electric radiators can connect into a fused spur taken from an existing ring circuit, provided the existing circuit has enough spare capacity. Larger units or multiple radiators typically require a dedicated radial circuit run directly from the consumer unit to avoid overloading.
Can you replace broken night storage heaters with electric radiators?
Yes. We regularly disconnect and remove old storage heaters. We inspect the wiring, alter or repurpose the supply as needed, and mount a modern wall radiator that connects to standard 24-hour electricity for thermostatic control.
Do you install electric radiators in rental flats?
Yes. We fit electric heating systems for landlords across Ferndown. Electric radiators are an effective solution for flats without gas infrastructure, providing reliable heating that meets electrical compliance standards.
Will my consumer unit need to be upgraded to add electric heating?
That depends on the age, spare ways, and RCD protection of your current consumer unit. We test the board during the visit. If an upgrade is necessary to support the new heating circuits safely, it is quoted separately before work begins.
Are you registered to certify electrical heating installations?
Yes. MX2 Electrical is fully NAPIT registered and TrustMark accredited. All new circuits, spurs and heater connections are tested and certified in accordance with BS 7671 standards.
