Expertise and no hard sell
We contacted Cotswold Heating Solutions to advise us on replacing our oil-fired system with Elkatherm electric radiators. From the first meeting, we were impressed by the expertise of the company, as well as the product. This is a real family business. Not only does Simon, the head of the firm, come to do the survey himself, but he is a qualified electrician, so he can really explain the product and what he is looking at in the house. This was not the case with any of the other three companies we consulted. He was totally honest, advising us to check with our electricity distributor to see whether our supply was sufficient for the proposed system. As a result of this, we decided not to go ahead, but this had nothing whatever to do with the quality of the company. Indeed, it was Simon's advice that led us to this decision! There was absolutely no hard sell. We would thoroughly recommend this company to anyone considering a similar conversion.

Employed Cotswold Heating Solutions to install new Elkatherm heating system in our holiday flat in Pembrokeshire. Cotswold's team set out at the crack of dawn to reach us and worked solidly to install the system in one day. They were well organised, courteous and accommodating throughout the day even giving us time to paint behind the old radiators before hanging the new ones. The system is neat and efficient and easily programmed. Only slightly annoying factor was that the app cannot be downloaded to iOS. Communication has been excellent throughout.

Thanks for a lovely review, we are so glad you are pleased with your new heating system. Please note that there is an app for iOS devices called HeatApp which can be downloaded from the App Store. We would be happy to assist you with this.

We decided to move away from oil and explored air source heat pumps but that proved unworkable in an old Cotswold cottage with micro bore pipes. We invited Simon to suggest a future proof and green alternative to our old system and the solution he suggested seemed right for us. We liked the extra space that smaller radiators and the removal of an oil boiler would create, the ease of control of the new system via an App. and the negligible future maintenance needed. The installation team were excellent and the whole experience was first class, on time and on budget.

Highly recommended
We would highly recommend Simon to anyone. He was prompt and fully explained the Elkatherm radiators after listening to our needs and concerns. He answered our emails very promptly and was polite and knowledgeable. We were very impressed. Many thanks.

Had my system replaced by Cotswold Heating Solutions. The service was excellent and the installation was completed in a quick and efficient manner. I was left with full instructions on how to operate the system and I am delighted with the results. Would recommend these people to anyone considering electric heating. This system is great for being able to control each room separately with different times and temperatures. Thank you Cotswold Heating Solutions, great job!

The future of heating in existing houses from Cotswold Heating

We wanted to replace a whole house old and creaky oil-fired heating system, knowing this would need at least 10 new heaters, so a pretty serious decision. We found Cotswold Heating Solutions, and Simon came along and made no hard sell, just an honest evaluation. We were attracted by a more reasonably priced proposal than the opposition, with very similar technology and perhaps superior controllability, a great guarantee on the heaters (I don't think British manufacturing can provide this yet, sadly), plus the amazing ability to specify a deep green radiator to match a permanently richly coloured room. We have been through two types of heat pumps in previous houses, but our current property doesn't lend itself to that, and as we can now buy fully renewably powered electricity, we don't really need to. The future can be electric, plus it takes less room. When they came, not only did Finn and Ben strip out the old, oil-fired system, boiler and all, but they worked neatly to remove as much pipework as possible and place the new heaters in more convenient places. Result; not only do we have a clean, quiet, heating system from renewable energy, we have a complete new cupboard and two rooms which have a precious 4" more useable space. Ben and Finn worked neatly, consulting us whenever necessary, but getting on with it, and Finn is still on the phone to help with programming tips. Very pleased, we would definitely recommend the firm.

Update of night storage heaters

We needed to change our, antiquated, heating system to a modern, greener solution. We did our research and asked Cotswold solutions for help. This is a family business and Simon came out to see us in July 2020. He fully explained the workings of the Elkatherm radiators and also the Sunamp, which is an electrical water heater (doing away with water cylinder) and having instant hot water. We were very impressed and went ahead with, radiators and the Sunamp. These were delivered in October 2020, the heating was installed in one day, with no trouble and each stage was fully explained to us. Our house was left immaculate by the guys. They also explained how to use the heaters to get the greener and economic benefits of the system. Due to no fault of theirs, the Sunamp delivered, was the incorrect one, but after a phone call from Simon, the correct one was delivered at the end of the day and was installed the following day. Having used this product for over a month, we could not be happier with the product and service. I would fully recommend Cotswold solutions for their, service, product knowledge and expertise and friendliness. Thank you.

New Install of Elkatherm System
Customer Service

Having recently moved into an old house in the countryside with just an oil fire and some panel heaters for heating we urgently needed a new solution. We're not on mains gas and the property isn't suitable for ground source or air source heating and we didn't fancy paying £25K to install an LPG system which feels like very old technology. This led us to look at electric systems that could be installed quickly with the minimum of disturbance to the property and we found Cotswold on-line. Simon came out to demo the Elkatherm system and advise us and was very professional with no sales pressure. The system looked great and the choice of colours, sizes etc. for the radiators was exactly what we were looking for. They're quite expensive for what they are but we were reassured by the 25-year warranty, simple install and promised low running costs so went for an initial 7 radiator install with another 5 to follow once we've completed the renovation work. COVID then got in the way so we had to wait a few extra weeks for the install but it was worth the wait. Simon's boys installed the whole system in under a day and were extremely tidy & quick. They left the property in a better state than they found it which is what we tell our own engineers to do. The rads are fitted perfectly and look great and they gave us comprehensive training on the system although it's a doddle anyway. We were very happy with the quality of the work and the engineers are a credit to Cotswold.

We had a large kitchen refurbishment and garden room extension nearly 4 years ago which included electric underfloor heating. however, during really cold days in the winter, we don't feel that the underfloor heating is warm enough. We did some research and arranged for Simon, from Cotswold Heating Solutions to visit us in February 2020 and recommend a solution for us. He arrived promptly and after surveying and listening to our concerns, he recommended for us to have two Elkatherm German electric radiators. He was very knowledgeable about his products and very personable too, I was impressed with his eye for detail, such as ensuring the fused connection units were in brushed steel to match our existing sockets. Although we placed our order in February this year, due to the Pandemic, there was some delays in receiving the radiators from Germany however, Simon kept us updated and we received an installation date for the 4th August. Ryan and Finn, from Cotswold Heating Solutions, arrived once again, on time and began the installation of our 2 radiators, they were extremely professional and carried out their work with a minimum of disruption to ourselves. after completing the installation they made sure we fully understood the technology and all the operating instructions. In summary, we would like to voice our total satisfaction with regard to the manner in which Cotswold Heating Solutions Ltd has dealt with us. We would wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone.

Thanks for the professional service your company provided from the initial home visit through quotation to the installation of the heating system replacing old night storage radiators. Everything was well planned and executed in an efficient and friendly manner. The team; Finn, Liam and Ryan were excellent; courteous and professional. Correct Covid-19 safety measures were observed throughout the installation. A few days after the heating system was commissioned, we are happy with the temperature control and simplicity of use. We highly recommend your Company.
