How do I unlock my Rointe radiator?
You can lock the control panel from the radiator, the Rointe Connect App or the AIR Control remote (optional). Here we show how to do it from the control panel of the product itself.
By pressing the <- and +> keys at the same time for 3 seconds you can lock the control panel. The locked control panel symbol appears and the keys will not respond. A padlock symbol will appear on the screen if any button is pushed. To unlock, press the and buttons together for 3 seconds.
When the radiator is locked from the App or the AIR Control remote, the remote keypad lock will appear on the screen. If any button is pressed, a padlock image with 2 small WiFi waves will be displayed. When the keypad has been locked remotely, it can only be unlocked remotely via the App or the AIR Control remote.
How does the Rointe open window function work?
The Rointe open window function is invoked when the room temperature sensor detects a drop of 4ªC from the user-assigned temperature over a 30 minute period. Under these circumstances, the function will apply anti-frost mode (8ºC) for 2 hours, reverting to normal functionality at the end of this period, or when the user intervenes by pressing the ON/OFF button.
How high do the Rointe radiators need to be off the floor, when installed on to a wall?
The Rointe Delta Ultimate and the Rointe Kyros electric radiators work by means of natural air convection. In order to achieve optimal functioning and an even distribution of heat, the lower part of the radiator, once mounted on the wall, must be at least 10 cm from the floor, and 30 cm at the most. As for the sides and above, a minimum distance of between 10-12 cm must be left from any wall or brickwork in order for it to function correctly.
What side is the flex/power lead on for Rointe wall mounted electric radiators?
The flex/power lead is on the right-hand side for the Rointe K Series, Rointe Kyros and the newer Rointe Delta Ultimate (D Series) ranges of electric wall mounted radiators.
Whats the difference between Oil filled radiators, Gel filled radiators, and Dry heaters?
Quite simply - oil filled, gel filled and dry electric radiators are all electrically efficient, but may be more appropriate for your installation depending on your specific requirements and the size of the room that needs heating.
Dry heaters are designed to heat up both quickly and efficiently whilst you are in the room, ensuring that no heat energy is wasted when you do not require it. An Oil or Gel filled heater on the other hand will take longer to heat up and release heat into a room, but will heat your room for longer even after being turned off as that retained heat is dispersed slower.
Oil filled radiators are also deemed to be safer than a dry electric radiator as air flow to dry radiators can be affected by dust - therefore they can overheat and can be hot to the touch for children and pets in comparison to an oil filled radiator. There are specific low surface temperature electric radiators available for dry technology, although these are not widely available – they are a fantastic option for those who prefer the dry technology electric radiator.
Gel filled radiator is very similar to the oil filled radiator, but uses a thermodynamic gel compound as an alternative to oil for heat diffusion around the internals of the radiators metal construction.
Please see our Which Electric Radiator should I choose? Gel filled? Oil filled? or Dry? article for further information.
Where can I download Rointe heater instructions?
Rointe radiators are designed for household or residential use.
We advise to have the radiator installed by an competent person or electrician where necessary making sure the radiator is properly connected and earthed.
Our radiators are filled with the precise amount of special oil that does not need any maintenance. Any repairs requiring the opening of the oil tank must only be done by Rointe. You should notify Rointe immediately if an oil leak is detected. The regulations on discarding oil when the heater is being disposed of must be observed. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or authorised personnel, in order to avoid any damage.
Why is the Rointe conservatory electric heater the best heater for a conservatory?
The Rointe conservatory electric heater is the best heater for a conservatory as heating a conservatory in the winter can be an issue. Connecting a conservatory radiator to central heating is never a good option as it doesn't meet current Part L building regulations due to the significant heat loss. Rointe conservatory electric radiators are the best option for heating your conservatory as they can be installed easily to low level walls and very low dwarf walls providing the best economical heating.
As with other Rointe radiators, the surface temperature of the Kyros range reaches only 40 degrees centigrade when the room temperature is set to 21 degrees. This ensures safety for both children and the elderly, which makes these units ideal for use in either the home or in a public environment.
With Fuzzy Logic Energy Control technology the Rointe Kyros conservatory electric heater has an incredibly low energy consumption, and the average power used by the Kyros range accounts for only 39 per cent of the nominal power.
Will the Rointe MIC110 work with the Kyros range?
The Rointe MIC110 remote control allows you to send and receive programmes between all of the K and T series heaters. These ranges are gradually being discontinued and replaced by the Kyros range. The new upgraded Rointe Kyros ACMI120 Bi-directional wireless infrared remote is available to buy and will allow you to control all products that make up the Rointe heating systems.
