Product Information
Full details
The Elecstore 2kW Oil Filled Radiator is an ideal solution for homeowners and renters seeking reliable, efficient supplementary heating for bedrooms, home offices, or living areas. It excels at maintaining a consistent ambient temperature through its heat-retaining oil core, though users should note that it is designed primarily as a localized space heater rather than a whole-home central heating replacement.

FAQs
Can I leave this radiator on overnight?
While the unit includes safety features, it is recommended to use the timer function to ensure it cycles off periodically and never leave it unattended in a room with sleeping children or pets.
Is this heater energy efficient?
Yes, oil-filled radiators are efficient because they retain heat in the oil, allowing the heater to cycle off while continuing to emit warmth.
Does this unit require refilling of the oil?
No, the oil is permanently sealed within the radiator at the factory and never requires refilling or maintenance.
Can I use this in a bathroom?
No, this heater is not rated for wet rooms or bathrooms due to the risk of electrical shock in high-humidity environments.
How do I move the radiator if it's hot?
Always turn off the unit, unplug it, and allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes before moving it using the integrated handle.
Troubleshooting
The radiator is not heating up
Ensure the device is plugged in, the power switch is in the 'on' position, and the timer pins are correctly set to 'on'.
There is a faint smell during first use
This is normal for new heaters as the manufacturing oils burn off. Run the heater in a well-ventilated room for the first hour of use.
The unit makes a clicking sound
This is the sound of the thermostat cycling or the metal expanding and contracting as it heats up; it is standard operation for this type of heater.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the radiator, simply attach the provided casters to the base for mobility. Place the unit on a flat, level surface at least one meter away from furniture, curtains, or flammable materials to ensure proper airflow. When using the 24-hour timer, rotate the dial to the current time, then push down the pins corresponding to the intervals you want the heater to operate. To care for your unit, ensure it is switched off and cooled down before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the exterior; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials that could damage the finish. Always ensure the cord is in good condition before plugging it into a standard domestic wall outlet.
