Do infrared heaters have thermostats?

The heaters that we offer do not come with inbuilt controllers, but we offer a really wide range of separate controllers. We also recommend having a controller alongside your infrared panel for a number of reasons. One of those reasons is that it means that you can really micromanage your heating system. We usually recommend having one controller per room or ‘zone’. This then means you can programme each room to be on at specific time, sometimes down to the minute! For example, you can programme your bathroom and kitchen to be on for one hour in the morning while you get ready for work. Then your living room and kitchen on for a few hours in the evening for when you get home. This means that you are only heating rooms that you are occupying which saves money on running costs. Having everything pre programmed also means that there is no fear of leaving heaters on by accident. It eliminates the need to remember to turn your heaters off when you leave the room.

Having a controller means that you can monitor the temperature of the room down to 0.5°C at any one time. All of the controllers we offer show the current temperature of that room, as well as the set temperature. It will indicate when the panel is on and working to get up to your set temperature and when it turns off once your temperature has been achieved.
