Energy Saving Radiator Panels - 5 pack

They seem really good, though it is too early to tell if I will save any money on the heating bill. I however bought the first pack for my guest bedroom because it has always been a little colder in there because the double bed is in front of the radiator. I thought these might improve that by improving the hot air, airflow around that room. This does indeed seem to have made the difference as the guest bedroom is now only half a degree out compared to the room with the thermostat. I used the excess behind three more radiators instead of letting them go to waste and I do think the air coming from the radiator does feel noticeably warmer so I purchased a second set to finish the rest of the house. The pictures show a few of the panels on the wall both with and without the radiators. My house is a modern energy efficient house so the radiator fittings are a different to a normal house, which meant I had to make some custom cuts instead of just measuring the radiators and then cutting along the pre-indicated lines. I am pleased with these two purchases.

These panels work out quite expensive if you do all your rads. They are frankly a bit fiddly to retrofit, it takes a long time to attach the two-sided self-adhesive tape and the tape only sticks well on the smoothest of painted surfaces. I shall have to use glue to stick back several panels which have come adrift. And the aesthetics arent great either: the missus hates them.

I bought this product to replace similar backings that had been fitted when I bought my house some time ago. The supplied backings looked far more professional than the old ones that were shapeless and had started to come away from the walls. I fitted the backings with ease, as directed, and did not waste any of the supplied material. I used Loctite superglue as well as the supplied double sided tape to ensure that heating of the tape glue would not cause the backings to peel away from the wall. I have successfully fitted this excellent product behind all my radiators...just in time for the return of winter this March. They look good and do the job.

These looked like a great alternative to conventional reflective material that comes rolled up, leaving you puzzling how to mount it effectively without removing the radiators. The package arrived in good time. Inside were the panels, a roll of good quality double-sided tape and a single sheet installation guide. The guide was clear and easy to use and it was the work of a couple hours to install all 5 panels. A couple of points to note - The panels are a standard size and of course radiators are not. The guide suggests that to get best results you need to completely cover the wall behind the radiator. To assist in this the panels have pre-marked lines to allow you to cut them to size. Each radiator needs at least 3 seprate pieces: one in the middle and two on either side of the mounting brackets. It was no problem to do this, but it meant that I didn't order enough panels. I managed to do only 3 radiators with my 5 panels and will order another 5. - You need a feather duster or similar to clean dust and cobwebs from behind the radiator. The panels glue to the wall it's mounted on so that needs to be reasonably clean - You also need a thin garden cane or other long, thin, slightly flexible rod - this is used to ensure the panels are pushed securely onto the wall Overall I am delighted with the product, and as above am ordering some more

I bought these because I felt like my house still feels cold, especially in the hallway. I think it has warmed up my house a bit.

I’m pleased with my purchase. I still have some radiators to do but they do keep the heat in.

This item arrived promptly and was easy to fit. Unfortunately won't really know if it works as don't keep an eye on my energy use. Everywhere feels warmer now but this maybe as we had a mild winter butfeel I am doing my bit for the planet.

in most cases you don't have to struggle with sticks etc. to fit these , most radiators fitted to house have a certain amount of tolerance / free movement with the pipes , all you have to do is put a suitable support underneath the rad, then lift the rad at each end , you only have to lift the rad about 4 to 5 mm then gently lean it back a little bit enough to get you hand down the back to firmly push on the heat keeper panel, also like my pictures remove top grill if you have one fitted , one 5 pack in my house did 3 radiators 1100mm, 800mm, & 1000mm , time will tell if they work , also I used the double-sided tape at every bit on the back of the panels,
