Question from James: Asked on 09/02/2026 Does this product plug into a socket? Or does it need to be hard wired?
Hi, This VG2TR-380BWIR infrared wall heater is supplied with a UK 3-pin plug and is designed to be plugged directly into a standard mains socket. No hard-wiring is required. For bathroom installations, the socket should meet UK safety regulations (e.g., RCD-protected or fused spur) to ensure safe operation.
Thank you.
Question from Gregg Walker: Asked on 26/01/2026 What is the running cost of the radiator?
Hi, This is a 380?W infrared heater. At current UK electricity prices, it costs about 10?p per hour to run at full power — so it’s very cheap and efficient to heat your bathroom.
Thank you.
Question from Bg: Asked on 24/01/2026 The gap I have where I would like to fit this is adjacent to the door frame, the door frame is shallower than the heater and therefore wouldn't obstruct the front, but is this ok for air flow?
Hi, The heater can be safely installed next to the door frame, as long as the front is unobstructed and a small gap is maintained at the sides for heat dissipation. Its infrared design ensures full performance, and the IP24 rating makes it suitable for bathroom installation.
Thank you.

Hi, The ElectriQ 380W Smart Infrared Vertical Black Glass Wall Heater (VG2TR-380BWIR) has a panel thickness of 25?mm.
