The Alpha Column Electric Radiator is an ideal heating solution for homeowners looking to add efficient, industrial-style warmth to smaller rooms or home offices. It provides the distinct advantage of WiFi-enabled thermostatic control, allowing users to manage heating schedules remotely via a smartphone; however, users should note that as an electric-only unit, it requires a dedicated electrical connection and is not compatible with central wet heating systems.

No, this is an electric-only radiator and cannot be connected to a hydronic or 'wet' central heating system.
Yes, because it requires a permanent electrical connection, a qualified electrician should handle the setup.
The radiator will continue to operate based on the last saved settings stored in its internal memory.
This specific model is finished in silver, though other models in the Alpha range may be available in different finishes.
The thermostatic element typically includes manual overrides on the unit itself, allowing you to adjust temperature without the app.
Ensure your smartphone is connected to a 2.4GHz network and verify the router is within range of the radiator unit.
Check the local circuit breaker or fuse to ensure power is reaching the unit and confirm the thermostat is set to an active schedule.
Verify that the thermostat sensor is not obstructed by furniture or curtains, as this can affect the unit's ability to measure room temperature accurately.
Installation of the Alpha radiator requires a 1/2 BSP connection and a dedicated electrical supply. Due to the electrical nature of the thermostatic element, it is highly recommended to use a qualified electrician for the initial installation to ensure safety and compliance with local building regulations. For ongoing care, clean the exterior of the radiator with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust buildup. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they may damage the silver finish. Periodically check the WiFi connection status through your app to ensure your heating schedules remain synchronized.
