Product Information
Full details
The Radi8 Frameless 350W Infrared Panel is designed for individuals seeking subtle, efficient, and minimalist heating solutions for compact spaces. Its key benefit is providing gentle, direct warmth with a clean aesthetic, ideal for bedrooms, bathrooms, or home offices. A significant caveat is that it does not include an onboard thermostat, requiring a separate smart thermostat for optimal control. This panel utilizes advanced far-infrared technology to warm people and objects directly, creating an energy-efficient environment with reduced air movement and fewer cold spots, making it suitable for allergy sufferers and those who prefer silent operation. The frameless design, powder-coated aluminum front, and carbon crystal technology ensure durability, easy cleaning, and effective thermal radiation.

How do I clean the panel?

Troubleshooting
Panel does not heat up
Ensure the panel is securely plugged into a working power outlet or that the hardwiring is correctly connected. Check that the associated thermostat is powered on and set to a heating mode with a temperature above the ambient room temperature.
Uneven heating
Verify that the panel is mounted correctly on the wall and that there are no obstructions blocking the heat output. Ensure the room is adequately sized for the panel's wattage (350W is suitable for smaller spaces).
Thermostat not responding
Check the connection between the panel and the thermostat. Refer to the thermostat's manual for troubleshooting steps, including checking its power source and settings.
Panel surface feels dusty or dirty
Turn off the power supply to the panel and allow it to cool completely. Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
