Inspire – Infrared Blackboard Heater

The Herschel iQ MD2 Wired Thermostat is ideal for new builds / renovations where cabling can be neatly hidden whether it be for domestic or commercial applications. When used in conjunction with your wifi network and the SmartLife app, MD2 can also be controlled remotely via the internet, enabling you to manage your heating when you are away from the building. The SmartLife App also enables control of your heating by voice using Alexa or Google Assistant.

MD2 is wired directly to the mains circuit and to the heaters and requires recessing into the wall.

The MD2 thermostat will operate your Herschel heater(s) by turning them on if the room temperature is lower than the desired temperature and turning them off once the desired temperature is reached. The MD2 is easy to operate, featuring a large digital touchscreen display and incorporates the latest EcoDesign energy-saving features including Herschel’s open window technology.

MD2 has a keypad locking feature to prevent unauthorised tampering making it suitable for commercial applications such as hotels, care homes, student accommodation and let properties.  The MD2 is a 16 amp thermostat enabling up to 3.6 kW of Herschel heaters to be connected.

Note: Herschel iQ controls will only work with Herschel heaters.   *Attempted use with any other heater brand will invalidate the warranty. 

The Herschel iQ T2 Thermostat pack (including one T2 thermostat plus R2 Receiver) incorporates the very latest energy-saving technology and is specifically designed to regulate Herschel Infrared heaters. When used with wifi you can also regulate your heating remotely using the SmartLife App.

Easy to install it is perfect for installations where hard wiring to the MD2 Thermostat would be impractical (for example, if you wish to minimise chasing out walls/cable trunking).

The T2 pack comprises a battery operated, wireless T2 Thermostat which can be wall mounted or free standing (and also includes one R2 Receiver).

The R2 Receiver must be wired to the mains electricity supply and also to the Herschel heater(s). The T2 and R2 are paired wirelessly to each other and the R2 can also be paired to your wifi for SmartLife app control (if required).

The T2 will then control all R2s which are paired to it.  The T2 pack will control up to 2kW (at 230V supply) of Herschel Infrared heaters on one electrical circuit. To control more heaters in the same zone, or if you wish to use one R2 Receiver per heater, simply purchase additional R2 receivers and pair them to the T2.

The T2 features 2 manual modes and 7 x 1 day programming and is an easy to operate thermostat. The T2 incorporates the latest EcoDesign energy-saving features including Herschel’s open window technology and an adaptive start function ensuring your room is always at the right temperature with the least energy use.

Note:

Herschel controls will only work with Herschel heaters.  Attempted use with any other heater brand will invalidate the warranty.

A T2 must be used even if SmartLife app control is to be the primary means of controlling your heating (i.e. you cannot use just the App and R2).

The T-T2 pack incorporates one T2 thermostat and one R2 Receiver.

The PIR Sensor works with Herschel Wifi-enabled thermostats to give you extra energy savings on your heating based on room occupancy when the heating is on. (Why have the heating on full blast in a room noone is in?).

We recommend you set up your Herschel Thermostats to run in Smart Mode as normal.

But then with the PIR sensor you can add “Scenes” to the Smartlife App (see an example Scene here) to turn the thermostat down if you are away from the room and turn it back up when you return. Say, for example, your living room is usually set for 21°C from 18:30 until 22:30, but you go out to dinner. Rather than keep heating a room you are not in, the PIR Sensor will turn your heating down while you are out.

As another example, you can also use it to keep the heating on if (for example) you are working late in a room that usually turns its heating down earlier in the evening.

The PIR Sensor is a battery operated WiFi unit. You will need one sensor for each room you want to check for occupancy. The sensor will work effectively in small to medium-size houses (e.g. 2-3 bedrooms) when paired directly to the  main router. For larger buildings using network extenders, the sensors should be paired with the extenders.

The PIR sensor must be used in conjunction with a Herschel Thermostat, it will not control your heating just on its own.
