Does the Reina Maia Horizontal need a plumber or an electrician?

An electrician only — no plumber required. The Maia Horizontal is a dry electric radiator with no water or pipework. A qualified electrician connects it to a dedicated fused spur. In England and Wales, a new circuit is notifiable under Part P of Building Regulations.

Which size should I choose — 1000W, 1500W, or 2000W?

As a rough guide: 1000W (500x544mm) suits rooms up to about 10m². 1500W (500x725mm) works well in 10-16m² rooms. 2000W (500x907mm) is suited to larger spaces up to around 20m². For a precise recommendation, use our BTU calculator with your room dimensions and insulation type.

What controls does the Maia Horizontal have?

The Maia Horizontal uses a Weekly Thermostatic Control Unit — a built-in programmable thermostat that lets you set target temperatures and schedules across the week.

Is aluminium better than steel for an electric radiator?

For electric radiators, aluminium heats up faster and cools down faster than steel. This responsiveness means a thermostatic control can react more precisely to room temperature changes — less overshoot, quicker correction.

Can it run independently of the central heating?

Yes — entirely independently. The Maia Horizontal is dry electric with no connection to your boiler or hot water circuit. Use it year-round, in summer or winter, regardless of whether the heating is on.

Is it available in colours other than white?

The Maia Horizontal is available in white only. If you need the same aluminium electric radiator in Anthracite, the Reina Serre is a similar horizontal aluminium model available in both White and Anthracite.

How much does the Maia Horizontal cost to run?

At a typical rate of 25p/kWh: the 1000W model costs 25p per hour; the 1500W costs 37.5p/hr; the 2000W costs 50p/hr. The built-in thermostat reduces actual usage by turning off once the target temperature is reached.

Why Dry Electric?

The Maia uses a dry heating element — no water inside. Here is what that means in practice.

Aluminium heats fast Responsive

Aluminium has low thermal mass — reaches operating temperature in minutes and responds quickly to the thermostat. Less overshoot, better temperature control.

Programmable thermostat Built-in

Weekly schedules and target temperatures built in. Warm up before you wake up, dial back overnight — no separate smart thermostat needed.

Install anywhere No pipework

No plumber, no central heating connection. A dedicated fused spur is all it needs — suitable for extensions, conversions, and rooms that have never had a radiator.
