FAQs

Is this heating element suitable for a bathroom?

Yes, it features an IPX4 splash-resistant rating, making it safe for installation in bathroom environments.

Can I use this with a 5GHz Wi-Fi network?

No, the smart features require a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connection for initial setup and ongoing connectivity.

What is the function of the Boost mode?

The Boost function allows for rapid heating for a set period, ideal for drying towels quickly or warming a room in a short timeframe.

Does it work if the Wi-Fi goes down?

Yes, the heating element will continue to operate based on its last saved local settings, though remote app control will be unavailable until the connection is restored.

Can I install this on either side of the radiator?

Yes, the design supports both left-side and right-side installation to accommodate your plumbing configuration.

What happens if I leave a window open?

The unit features Open Window Detection, which will pause the heating if it senses a sudden, significant drop in room temperature to conserve energy.

Troubleshooting

Ensure your phone is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network and check that the heating element is in pairing mode (refer to the LED indicator).

Heating element is not warming up

Check the app to ensure the device is not set to 'Anti-Frost' or 'Off' mode, and verify that the target temperature is set higher than the current room temperature.

  • Voice control compatibility with Google Home and Amazon Echo
  • Significant energy savings through scheduling and Open Window Detection
  • Durable IPX4-rated design safe for bathroom installations
  • Wide temperature range from 7C to 30C

Cons

  • Requires stable 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connection for smart features

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional to ensure the radiator system is correctly sealed and the electrical connection meets local safety standards. The unit is compatible with most standard water-filled towel and room radiators. Once installed, ensure your home network is broadcasting a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal to complete the pairing process in the Tuya Smart app. To maintain the device, periodically wipe the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth, avoiding abrasive chemicals that might damage the splash-resistant housing. Always check the radiator pressure periodically to ensure the system remains within the recommended operating range.
