Stanton RadBooster RB 600 - high-performance radiator fan

Good for my loft conversion which has a small single radiator. The room heats up noticably quicker and spreads the heat to the other side of the room too. The fan is fairly quiet and easy to set up. It wanted to lean back on my slightly uneven carpet but I've made a prop for it and now it fits nicely. The magnetic heat detector does not stick well so I made a wedge to keep it against the radiator - I might glue it with a suitable glue at some point. It'll be good in the summer just as a fan too. Overall I'm quite pleased with it and I'm keeping it.

Very easy to install, just stick it underneath a wide (large) radiator as the instructions indicate. This item turns your normal radiator into basically a high power fan heater except with a minimum cost in electricity. Works well, my house gets hot really quickly now. No longer any need for my 3 Kilowatt fan heaters that cost a massive amount of electricity to operate, as now cheap gas heats my entire home. Plus saves massive amounts of money and pays for itself as I can set my gas central heating timer to operate my central heating for a much shorter time period, rather than the six hours before I get home that was needed without this device. Environmentalists eat your heart out! Item makes a slight subdued hum at the high power setting of about 30Watts which may upset very light sleepers, the low power setting is quieter.

Turns out this product come from India.Doesn’t operate properly as it should turn off when the heating shuts off, it doesn’t.Emails remain ignored and phone calls ring then cut off.Otherwise it’s great and does the job.Instructions inadequate.

I brought this rad booster to help with the warming of my conservatory as the rad in there does not do the job even though it is a double rad. the problem with this rad booster is the heat sensor cable is to short which means the sensor can only be put at the lowest point of the radiator on the right hand side this in most cases is the coldest point of the rad and the sensor does not turn the fan on the rad booster the cable needs to be made longer so you can move the sensor further up the radiator to be able to take full advantage of the heat that comes from the radiator

Our kitchen radiator is too small for the room so doesn't really heat the kitchen up. Got a price for upgrading the radiator which was going to be about £200 to move pipework and fit a larger rad. Instead I've gone for a Radbooster which can be moved about and used in different rooms.The smallest model is £75 but this will still provide a higher output in airflow than the competitors largest model due to its design.I've tried in the past a Radfan which uses pc fans which give out an annoying hum plus they don't cover the full length of the rad so you get minimum airflow. In the end I gave it away as it didn't seem to make much difference. The Radbooster is made of metal, has a tangential cross flow fan which ensures the full width of the radiator has air flow moving through it. This is the same type of fan in a tower fan, but more compact and of course a high quality metal impeller and low wattage motor.It has lifted our kitchen temp to 22c tonight when it's always struggling to reach 19c so I am impressed. I've now been able to turn the maximum flow temp down on the boiler so the boiler is running more efficiently and the kitchen is nice and warm.Having wanted to give feedback to the company who designed this, I learned that the guys who have designed this are ex engineers one of them worked for a well known company that make the Kickspace heaters, all which use a tangential fan. They were clearly looking to design something good and with a purpose given the type of products out there that claim to do a good job, they succeed at this immensely with a very high quality well designed product with no plastic used for the casing or fan.
