COVER STORY
the complexity of the older seven-size range. Standard installation is equally straightforward: selected Rointe inverter radiators are supplied with brackets, installation kit, template, cable and user instructions, helping reduce preparation time on site.
to 30%, providing another tool when working with constrained electrical capacity. For the customer, Nexa provides a simple way to adjust programmes, activate Boost, Holiday or Night modes and monitor consumption, costs and savings. For the installer, that means less time explaining complicated controls and a clearer route for future adjustments that would otherwise risk becoming a return visit. More than radiators The same installer-focused approach extends across Rointe’s electric heating portfolio. Connected towel rails bring bathroom heating into Nexa, while the Genius WiFi thermostat provides app control for Milos and Erko electric underfloor heating systems. For properties using off-peak tariffs, ONYX adds a high heat retention option with WiFi Direct control, Smart Charging and pre-installed peak and off-peak cables. It retains more than 55.3% of stored heat after 16 hours and uses an algorithm to calculate how much energy should be stored for the following day. Its Inverter Smart Adaptive fan then modulates heat delivery according to demand. Beyond heating, Rointe’s 2026/27 portfolio also covers cooling and climate control, including the RX20 wall-mounted split system and portable air-conditioning solutions. These sit alongside the heating ecosystem to give installers access to
a broader range of products from one manufacturer, although cooling products use their own control platform rather than Rointe Nexa. A simpler job from specification to handover The real value of smart technology is not the number of functions on a specification sheet. It is whether those functions make the installation easier to sell, fit, configure and support. Rointe’s approach combines adaptive power control, a rationalised radiator platform, direct connectivity and app-based management with technical support for professionals. The company also supports installers during maintenance and provides after- sales technical assistance through its professional channel. For installers, that creates a practical proposition: fewer standard radiator sizes to move and manage, familiar installation methods, no gateway requirement for connected heating, simple app-based configuration and a product ecosystem that can cover more of the project. Smarter heating should make the installer’s job simpler. With Inverter Smart Adaptive and Rointe Nexa, that is exactly the direction Rointe is taking.
One app, one connected heating ecosystem
Hardware is only part of the story. Rointe Nexa brings the connected heating range together in one control environment, allowing radiators, connected towel rails, storage heaters and underfloor heating to be managed from a smartphone. Products connect directly through WiFi Direct, removing the need for additional gateways or smart boxes. Bluetooth pairing supports setup, while Nexa allows products to be organised individually or by room, floor or zone. Installers can configure schedules, activate functions and set operating parameters before handover, giving the customer a system that is already organised around the way the property is used. That becomes particularly useful in rental properties, student accommodation, hotels and other managed environments. Limited Mode can restrict access to selected functions and temperature ranges, while surface temperature limitation can be set on compatible radiators where safer touch temperatures are required. Power limitation on Inverter Smart Adaptive models can also reduce total installed radiator power by up
