Dimplex Quantum: smarter control, lower costs, proven performance

January 22, 2026

For more than a decade, Dimplex Quantum has defined what modern electric heating should be. Combining advanced controls, proven efficiency and installer-friendly design, it remains the benchmark in high heat retention storage heating.

Quantum continues to set the standard for intelligent electric heating, bringing together high-heat-retention construction with smart, self-learning charge control. By storing off-peak energy and releasing it exactly when rooms need it, Quantum helps households cut running costs while maintaining consistent comfort – precisely the balance installers are asked to deliver every winter.

A study has highlighted that Dimplex Quantum can deliver running-cost savings of up to 27% compared with older storage heaters, thanks to its advanced insulation, intelligent heat management control and precise energy-use optimisation. For installers, that translates into a clear performance story when advising customers on upgrades or replacements.

Alongside performance, Quantum is designed to provide long-term reassurance. The range is backed by a 10-year guarantee and carries the independent BEAB safety mark, giving confidence that the products meet recognised safety standards.

Control is where Quantum truly stands apart – its intelligent algorithm learns household routines, automatically adjusting heat output to maintain consistent comfort while avoiding wasted energy. Features such as Adaptive Start and Open Window Detection help optimise efficiency without requiring constant user input.

Through the Dimplex Hub, compatible heaters can be connected to the Dimplex Control app allowing users to manage their heating from anywhere with real-time visibility of performance and energy use. Quick-access functions such as Boost and Away modes make everyday operation simple, while scheduling and remote monitoring give householders effortless oversight of their heating system without unnecessary complexity.

When paired with Quantum’s advanced high heat retention technology, this connectivity takes performance even further. The system stores low-carbon electricity during off-peak periods and releases steady warmth throughout the day – creating a responsive heating solution that delivers lower running costs with effortless control.

Importantly for retrofit projects, Quantum’s casing and footprint are designed to help cover fixing marks left by older storage heaters, reducing the need for additional making-good or redecoration. For installers, this helps streamline replacements and deliver a cleaner finished result for customers.

Yulia Gillingham, Head of Marketing at Dimplex UK, said:

“Quantum has become a byword for reliability and smart efficiency. It’s the result of more than a decade of development in high heat retention technology and builds on Dimplex’s 75-year heritage in electric heating.

“That history matters – installers know they’re fitting a product backed by years of engineering experience, proven performance and long-term support. Quantum remains the trusted choice because it delivers what professionals value most: efficiency, reliability and confidence in every install.”

Dimplex also backs the trade with training, technical resources and community support through the Dimplex PRO Installer Club. This dedicated hub provides access to product knowledge, updates and practical tools, including an advanced heating calculator to help specify the right solution for each property and support for ECO-funded projects. Installers can also benefit from rewards and incentives designed to recognise ongoing engagement and professional commitment.

From single-property retrofits to large-scale housing programmes, Quantum’s blend of efficiency, connectivity and reliability continues to make it the desired choice for smart, future-ready electric heating.
