Herschel iQ T2 Thermostat Pack with R2 Receiver
Wireless thermostat and receiver pack for Herschel infrared heaters, with app-ready smart control, energy-saving features and flexible room-by-room zoning.
Eco Friendly Heating can’t recommend this thermostat pack enough. The Herschel iQ T2 Thermostat Pack, which includes one T2 thermostat and one R2 receiver, incorporates the latest energy-saving technology and is specifically designed to regulate Herschel infrared heaters.
When connected to WiFi, the system can also be controlled remotely using the Smart Life App, giving you the flexibility of both physical in-room thermostat control and app-based heating management. That makes it a strong choice for buyers who want the convenience of smart heating without losing a clear, visible control point in the room.
For buyers comparing thermostat types, our Infrared Heating Thermostats Guide explains the difference between wireless thermostat packs, app-only controls and hard-wired thermostat systems. You can also compare options in our Thermostats Collection, Wireless Thermostats and WiFi Thermostats collections.
Why Choose the T2 Thermostat Pack?
The Herschel iQ T2 Pack is particularly useful where hard-wiring a thermostat such as the MD2 Thermostat would be impractical. This can make a real difference in retrofit installations or finished rooms where you want to minimise chasing walls, visible cable runs or trunking.
The pack combines a battery-operated wireless T2 thermostat with an R2 receiver, giving you a cleaner installation route while still keeping a physical thermostat available in the room.
- Wireless thermostat control for easier installation
- Reduced need for wall chasing or trunking
- Ideal for retrofit and renovation projects
- Suitable for buyers who want both app and manual room control
How the T2 and R2 Work Together
The T2 pack comprises a battery operated wireless T2 thermostat which can be wall mounted or free standing, together with one R2 receiver.
The R2 receiver must be wired to the mains electricity supply and also to the Herschel heater or heaters. The T2 and R2 pair wirelessly, and the R2 can also be connected to your WiFi for Smart Life App control if required.
This setup gives you the benefit of:
- A physical thermostat in the room
- Wireless pairing between thermostat and receiver
- Optional app control via Smart Life
- Flexible room-by-room heating management
Unlike app-only systems, the T2 Pack keeps local manual control available in the room, which can be especially useful in family homes, guest spaces and projects where not everyone wants to use a phone to change the temperature.
Heating Load and Multi-Heater Zoning
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 want to use one R2 receiver per heater, you can simply purchase additional R2 receivers and pair them to the same T2 thermostat.
This makes the T2 pack a strong option for:
- Single room infrared heating zones
- Larger rooms using more than one Herschel heater
- Open-plan spaces needing grouped control
- Projects where one thermostat should manage several heaters together
For broader zoning and commercial control planning, our Commercial Heating Thermostats Guide and Heating for Offices & Commercial Interiors are useful next steps.
Energy-Saving Features
The T2 features 2 manual modes and 7 × 1 day programming, making it easy to operate while still offering useful flexibility for daily routines.
It also incorporates the latest EcoDesign energy-saving features, including Herschel’s open window technology and an adaptive start function, helping ensure the room is always at the right temperature with the least energy use possible.
For buyers planning infrared heating more carefully, our Heat Loss Calculator and Infrared Heating Running Costs & Sizing Guide help you match control strategy, heater sizing and room use more effectively.
Important Compatibility Notes
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 Smart Life App control is your primary means of controlling the heating. In other words, you cannot use just the App and R2 on their own.
The T-T2 pack includes one T2 thermostat and one R2 receiver.

FAQ's
What is included in the Herschel iQ T2 Thermostat Pack?
The pack includes one T2 wireless thermostat and one R2 receiver.
Can the T2 Pack be used without WiFi?
Yes. The T2 and R2 work together wirelessly as a heating control system. WiFi is only needed if you want to add Smart Life App control.
Can I use just the app and R2 without the T2 thermostat?
No. A T2 thermostat must always be used as part of the system, even if app control is the main way you intend to manage heating.
How much heating load can the T2 Pack control?
The pack will control up to 2kW at 230V supply on one electrical circuit.
Can I add more heaters to the same T2 thermostat?
Yes. You can add additional R2 receivers and pair them to the same T2 thermostat to control more heaters in the same zone.
Why would I choose the T2 Pack instead of a fully wired thermostat?
The T2 Pack is ideal where hard-wiring a thermostat would be impractical or disruptive, such as retrofit projects or finished rooms.
Will this work with non-Herschel heaters?
No. Herschel controls are designed only for Herschel heaters.
