Can electric radiators be a danger to children?
Acova’s electric radiators are totally sealed, and all the live electric parts are inside the radiator and inaccessible to children. All electrical work should be carried out in accordance with I.E.E. wiring regulations, taking note of the correct distances from water sources in the bathroom. Where the elderly or infirm are concerned, the surface temperature of the radiator should be taken into consideration. Acova has a new product, the DBM, which controls the surface temperature of the radiator electronically. One of the settings of the DBM limits the surface temperature to a maximum of 45°C. (The surface temperature at which burning would occur if there were to be prolonged contact with the skin is 48°C.
