Replace an electric radiator in Skellefteå

Thirty-year-old radiators with sluggish thermostats burn money every winter. We replace them with modern electric radiators with precise control — old out, new in, done in one visit. Fixed price, and the best price per radiator when you replace five at once.

Direct electric heating — replace the worst ones first

If you have direct electric heating you do not need to replace everything at once. Start with the radiators in the rooms where you spend most time — modern radiators hold the temperature to within a fraction of a degree where old ones swing by several degrees, and the difference shows up on the electricity bill in the very first winter.

Radiators through us or your own

You can buy the radiators yourself and have us install them, or add standard 1,000 W radiators directly in the booking and we bring everything. Either way they are connected permanently and safely — no plug-in solutions.

What output should the new radiator have?

Room size, ceiling height, windows and the house's insulation all matter. A living room with large windows needs more than a bedroom of the same area, and a corner room needs more than a central one. When replacing existing radiators the original output is a useful starting point — but we verify it actually was sufficient, rather than copying an old mistake.

Eight months of heating season demands performance

In Skellefteå the radiators work from September to May, with long periods below minus twenty. Direct electric heating is still the most common in houses from the 1970s — and that is where modern radiators with an electronic thermostat make the greatest difference. The same warmth, more evenly distributed, for less electricity throughout the long season.

The radiator stopped working in the cold season?

A radiator that stops heating in January is not something to wait with — especially not in rooms with water pipes. We book the replacement quickly, and until the visit you would be wise to keep the door to the room open so the rest of the house's heat helps. If it is a summer cottage standing cold, a frost guard is a useful addition to request in the same visit.

Frequently asked questions

Can I replace the radiator myself?

Plug-in radiators you can replace yourself. Permanently wired radiators — the most common in houses with direct electric heating — must be replaced by a qualified electrician, and those are what the fixed price covers.

Must all radiators be replaced at once?

No. Many people start with the rooms the family uses most and do the rest later — but if you replace five at once you get the best price per radiator; see the package price.

Are the radiators included in the price?

You choose: bring your own radiators and we install them, or add standard 1,000 W radiators directly in the booking and we bring everything.

Are there radiators with app control?

Yes, several manufacturers have radiators with Wi-Fi and weekly programmes — useful for reducing heat during the day. If you choose your own radiators we connect them regardless of control type.
