Whether you’re updating the kitchen, living room or bathroom, Milano offer a radiator to enhance any room in your home.
The wide choice of sizes on offer, ensures a perfect fit for almost any space, while the variety of finishes allows you to create a look you’ll love.
But with so many styles available, choosing a Milano radiator can be difficult, so to help you out, we’ve created this handy buying guide to make your decision easier.
Why Choose A Milano Radiator?
There are many reasons to choose a Milano radiator – from high heat outputs to premium quality and comprehensive guarantees.
We uncover all there is to know about Milano heating products, so you can be assured you are investing in a quality product that will last for many years.
Leading UK heating brand
Milano are a UK leading heating brand with over 30 years’ experience in the industry, and their comprehensive range includes radiators, heated towel rails, underfloor heating, radiator valves and accessories – everything you require to heat your home in a stylish and efficient way.
All Milano heating products are made to the very highest of standards. They combine impressive heat output and efficiency, with great durability and the latest designs. Milano are committed to providing affordable quality, and their reputation as a UK brand continues to go from strength to strength.
High heat outputs
Each Milano radiator boasts a high heat output that will quickly transform your chosen room into a warm and inviting space. Before choosing a new radiator, it’s important to work out the required BTUs (British Thermal Units) to heat your room effectively.
You can use a BTU calculator to work out this figure, or measure the length, width and height of the room in meters and note this down. You will also need to take into account the heat loss – are there any windows or doors, and are the windows single or double glazed?
As an example, if a family bathroom with a double-glazed window measures 2.72m L x 2.39m W x 2.4m H, then you will require a radiator with a BTU output of 1975.
At Big Bathroom Shop, on each radiator product page, you’ll find details of each radiators BTU output, so you know how powerful the appliance will be.
Premium quality
All Milano radiators are made to the highest quality to ensure long lasting durability, and are tested and certified to EN442 standards. They are constructed from either steel or aluminium.
Milano uses premium gauge steel for their steel radiators. This steel thickness has a solid, heavy feel, and is durable and reliable, which is why you can be assured your Milano radiator will stand the test of time.
Aluminium radiators contain less water and can easily be recycled.
They reach their highest temperature faster than a radiator made from steel, which helps to save money on energy bills.
Aluminium radiators are also lightweight yet durable, making them suitable for any type of internal or external wall.
Variety of designs to enhance any interior
Whether you want to create an on-trend look or prefer something more timeless, Milano have all styles covered to enhance any interior.
For a classic look, the Windsor column radiators are perfect, but for something more contemporary, choose the popular Aruba or Alpha.
For an ultra-minimalist look, the Riso is a great option. Plus, there’s a variety of finishes to take your pick from too including white, black, anthracite and even orange, plus many more coloured radiators to choose from.
A size to suit any space
From a compact 300 x 600mm to a large 635 x 1647mm, and everything in-between, the Milano radiator collection has a size to suit any space, whether that’s a small cloakroom or a spacious living room.
Plumbed, electric & dual fuel models
Milano offer both plumbed and electric radiators to suit any installation requirement.
Some of our electric radiators are supplied with a WiFi heating element, and are pre-filled with a water based heating solution called glycol, which helps to reduce rust, noise and limescale.
Electric radiators are ideal for where plumbed radiators are not an option such as in apartments, or for where the pipework cannot be extended in loft conversions or extensions for example.
We also supply a range of dual fuel radiators and towel rails that feature both plumbed and electric heating options.
Vertical and horizontal installation options
In addition to an array of sizes, styles and finishes, there’s also vertical and horizontal installation options.
So, if you need to heat a room, but there’s limited wall space, the Milano range of vertical radiators offer the perfect solution.
Horizontal radiator designs have always been a popular choice, but more homeowners and interior designers are going for a vertical style.
Coordinating valves
Of course, your new Milano radiator wouldn’t be complete without valves, that’s why there’s a wide range to choose from for a coordinating look.
There’s angular and straight radiator valves, as well as manual and thermostatic in modern and traditional styles.
Extensive guarantees
Milano offer extensive guarantees of up to 20 years across all their radiators for added peace of mind.
The lengthy guarantees that Milano offer are an indicator of the quality of the materials used and the build of all their radiators.
Milano Convector Radiators
Available in an array of sizes to suit any room, Milano convector radiators boast high heat outputs to ensure your space is heated fast to a comfortable warmth.
They feature a quality white finish and a design that will complement any interior style, which makes this type of radiator a popular choice.
There are also single panel and double panel options to suit your heating requirements, and all have a quality steel construction to ensure great durability.
Milano Electric Radiators
Milano electric radiators are ideal for where a central heating connection is not possible, such as in apartments and extensions.
Each electric radiator is supplied with a WiFi heating element, which allows you to control the settings with ease from your mobile phone.
You can manage several devices simultaneously, and program as many heating cycles as you wish. The heating cycles can be assigned to specific devices, and you can personalise the settings of each element such as the time and desired temperature.
The electric radiators are pre-filled with glycol to eliminate rust, noise and limescale. The solution also contains anti-freeze and anti-corrosion.
The electric option is available on the Milano Riso, Capri, Alpha and Aruba models.
Milano Designer Radiators
From sleek flat panels to eye-catching diamond shaped columns, Milano designer radiators come in an impressive range of styles.
If you’re looking to revamp the rooms in your home, replacing a standard white radiator with a designer style, provides an easy way to create a fresh new look without breaking the bank.
The wide range of sizes on offer means you’ll have no trouble finding a radiator that will perfectly fit the intended space, and the high heat outputs ensures your room will feel warm and welcoming in no time at all.
There’s also a variety of finishes available such as black, white and anthracite. Black and anthracite radiators are ideal for those who want to add a contemporary edge to their home, while a white finish will blend in perfectly with any décor. For a pop of colour, why not choose a mint green, orange or blue finish?
Milano Column Radiators
If classic and traditional is more your style, the Milano column radiators are the perfect option for you.
Featuring an old school-house inspired design, column radiators add timeless elegance to any room.
Made from steel, they offer a more affordable option than a cast iron radiator, and weigh a lot less too, so you can get the look but without the associated cost.
The Windsor column radiators look equally stylish in traditional and modern homes, and there’s a range of sizes and finishes available.
The Windsor radiators come in plumbed and electric variations to suit your installation requirements. The Windsor electric radiators are pre-filled with glycol, anti-freeze and anti-corrosion to ensure maximum performance. They include an IP67 rated heating element, which boasts a high degree of moisture ingress protection.
