Overview
We’re available to fit the best electric heating system for your requirements — whether that’s modern electric radiators, electric underfloor heating or replacing outdated storage heaters with something far more efficient and controllable. Our qualified electricians are on hand to offer guidance and provide a fixed-price quote for any electric heating project.
Electric heating is 100% efficient at the point of use, meaning all the electricity you consume is converted directly into heat. Unlike central heating systems, electric heating gives you independent control over the temperature in each room — so you’re not heating the whole house every time a single room gets cold. Maintenance is very low too, with no moving parts, no annual servicing and no boiler to worry about.
If you have older-style storage heaters, it might be time for a change. Modern electric heating is more efficient, easier to control and more aesthetically pleasing. The team at CapitalVolt is available to install electric radiators and underfloor heating across Edinburgh, the Lothians, Corstorphine, Cramond and Fife.

“Craig and his team were excellent. We needed a partial rewire, and they worked incredibly efficient and tidy while being transparent about the work being done. When they left, it was like they were never there. I can’t recommend them enough and will use them for any future electrical work.”
“I recently had heaters installed at my flat by CapitalVolt Ltd , and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team was professional, prompt, and efficient. They made sure everything was set up to my satisfaction and took the time to explain how the heaters worked. Very happy with their service.”
