The Manufacturers Association of Radiators and Convectors (MARC), calls upon UK Merchants and showrooms to help raise industry standards and eliminate radiator products with over-inflated heat output claims from the market.

The Manufacturers Association of Radiators and Convectors (MARC), launched a campaign in 2020, to raise consumer awareness of the importance of having quality, radiators that conform to current standards, installed in their home. Today 09/03/2021 they extend their campaign to the industry and call upon them to help eliminate bogus radiator products from the market.

The Manufacturers Association of Radiators and Convectors (MARC), have launched an online ‘Heat Calculator’ to help consumers choose the right radiator for each room in their home.

The Manufacturers Association of Radiators and Convectors (MARC), estimates that a large percentage of radiator product models on offer in the UK may not be compliant with the current standards. The situation is most acute in the decorative side of the market where MARC estimates over 40% may not comply. Installing radiators that do not conform could result in a cold, expensive and inefficient home.
