Product Description
Wireless electric heating receiver
Wireless control for electric heaters.
Connect a compatible wireless thermostat to your electric heating.
IMI Heatmiser RF Switch 16A is a surface-mounted receiver with one heating output, capable of switching resistive loads up to 16A. It receives wireless requests from a compatible thermostat and switches the connected electric heater.
For electric heaters. Not suitable for electric underfloor heating.
RF Switch 16A has no remote floor temperature limiting sensor function and must not be used to control electric underfloor heating.
Why choose RF Switch 16A?
Switch loads up to 16A
One heating output supports a maximum total resistive load of 16A. Your installer should confirm the connected heater is suitable.
Wireless thermostat connection
Use with neoAir v3 or Slimline-RF v3 to send heating requests wirelessly from the thermostat to the receiver.
Output indication and override
Power and output indicators show the receiver status. A local override button lets you switch the output on or off.
How the controls work together
Your compatible room thermostat measures the room temperature and sends wireless heating requests to RF Switch 16A. The receiver switches the electric heater through its wired heating output.
The thermostat connection is wireless. RF Switch 16A itself requires a 230V AC supply and electrical wiring to the heater.

Disappointing
Bought to work with the NEO Flo etrv's but won't connect tried tech support but they still haven't got back to me

I haven't actually wired this up and used it yet, but it looks like a well designed and robust product. I was also particularly happy with the installation instructions and manual which are well written, unlike some of the stuff you get from China.

Good product, but could be better
This unit works well and the range between my NeoAir and the switch spans 2 floors of a domestic property. But there are three important points to be aware of: 1. The width of the unit is 108mm, 20mm wider than a standard single UK face-plate, so this cannot be installed onto an existing back-box if it is 'flush' with an adjacent face-plate/back-box. 2. the wiring is designed to be internal (from the back) which isn't convenient if you want to replace an existing switched outlet plate (as I do). You will need to cut holes in the front casing and devise some way to restrain the cable at exit. 3. the override switch isn't very useful, certainly cannot be used by the end-consumer. After a lot of experimentation it looks like my NeoAir sends out a repeat status command every 20 minutes. Thus, if NeoAir isn't calling for heat and the 16A switch override is used, NeoAir will send a repeat "off" command which switches the unit off and cancels the override.
