Product Information

Full details

The TCP Smart Infrared Panel Heater 400W is an efficient, targeted heating solution perfect for home offices or compact living spaces that require focused warmth rather than whole-room convective heating. It offers advanced energy monitoring and smartphone-integrated controls to help users optimize consumption and maintain a cozy environment, though it is important to note that its lower 400W output is best suited for small areas rather than large, open-plan living rooms.

FAQs

Can this heater warm a whole room?

This 400W model is designed for targeted, local heating in small spaces or home offices, rather than warming an entire room as a primary heat source.

Does it work with voice assistants?

Yes, the TCP Smart system is generally compatible with major smart home voice assistants, allowing for hands-free control of your heating.

Is the heater wall-mountable?

Yes, the product is designed for easy wall mounting, which helps keep floor space clear in smaller rooms.

What is the benefit of infrared over convection?

Infrared provides instant, targeted heat that is more energy-efficient for personal comfort, whereas convection heats the air, which can be slower and more prone to heat loss.

Can I leave the heater on while I sleep?

It is generally recommended to use the scheduling feature to turn the heater off when not required, and ensure it is installed according to safety guidelines.

Troubleshooting

Heater will not connect to the Wi-Fi network.

Ensure your smartphone is connected to a 2.4GHz network, as 5GHz networks are not supported. Reset the heater to pairing mode and ensure you are within range of the router.

The heater is powered on but does not feel warm.

Infrared heaters warm objects, not the air directly. Allow 10–15 minutes for the panel to reach full operating temperature, and ensure you are positioned in front of the heater's radiant path.

Check your home internet connection. If the connection is stable, power cycle the heater by unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your device, mount the heater securely to a wall using the included hardware, ensuring it is positioned at an appropriate height for radiant distribution. Download the TCP Smart app, create an account, and follow the in-app prompts to pair the heater with your 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. For compatibility, ensure your router supports the 2.4GHz band as this is required for smart feature connectivity. Maintenance is minimal: keep the exterior panel clean by wiping it down with a soft, dry cloth. Always turn off the device and allow it to cool completely before performing any cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges to protect the finish of the panel.
