The Fairford Matt Black 400 W Heating Element is designed to convert a bathroom radiator into a dual-fuel system, allowing operation via central heating or electric supply. With a 400 W output, it provides ample warmth for medium-sized radiators without excessive energy use, and the matt black finish ensures a seamless match with contemporary black fixtures.

Equipped with a built-in thermostat, the element controls temperature between 30 °C and 70 °C in 5 °C increments. A boost function offers 2-hour or 4-hour heating for rapid warmth. Integrated safety features protect against overheating or damage by shutting down at high or low extremes.

The element’s wired connection, combined with a T-piece kit, allows straightforward installation into existing radiator systems. With its sleek design, durable finish, and reliable heating performance, the Fairford Matt Black 400 W Heating Element delivers both functionality and modern style for any bathroom setup.
