Smart Fabric Warmth for Living Spaces
Some heaters look like an afterthought in a living space. The Dimplex HeatLite Tex takes a different route, wrapping a 2 kW convector in a Graphite Fabric finish that looks at home in a furnished room rather than apologising for itself. It is built for rooms up to 20 m², with three heat settings and a digital thermostat that holds anywhere from 5°C to 35°C. Programme the week ahead on the 7-day timer, or reach for your phone and adjust it through the app over Wi-Fi. Stand it on the floor or fix it to the wall; either way, open window detection and a child lock keep wasted heat and curious little hands in check.
What Our Specialists at AD Rate Most
What wins us over is how much control sits inside such an unassuming fabric panel. The digital thermostat spans 5°C to 35°C and the 7-day timer means the room is warm before you walk in, while Wi-Fi app control lets you nudge the temperature from your phone. Open window detection helps you avoid heating the garden.

Three Settings for Any Room
This is a 2 kW convector heater with three heat settings of 750 W, 1.25 kW and 2 kW, so you can run it gently to top up a warm room or at full output for a colder one. It is suited to rooms up to 20 m². The digital thermostat, adjustable between 5°C and 35°C, then holds the room at the temperature you have chosen.
Heating From Your Phone
Wi-Fi connectivity means the heater can be controlled through an app, so you can adjust the thermostat or change settings without getting up. The 7-day programmable timer lets you programme heating across the week, warming the bedroom before the alarm and the living room for the evening. Open window detection adds another layer of sense, helping you avoid heating air that is escaping outside.
Built-In Safety for Busy Homes
A convector heater often lives in rooms where children and pets are about, so the convector heater carries a full set of safeguards. A tilt switch responds if the heater is knocked over, overheat protection and a safety cut-out step in if it runs too hot, and a child lock stops the settings being changed by curious hands. Frost protection maintains 7°C in an unoccupied room once it drops below 5°C, and the heater can also be wall-mounted if you prefer it off the floor.
Floor Standing or Wall Mounted
The HeatLite Tex can be used freestanding or fixed to the wall, which gives you a choice of a portable heater that follows you around the house or a permanent fixture that frees up floor space. It measures 621 mm wide, 455 mm high and 187 mm deep and weighs 4 kg. The 1.5 m cable gives a sensible reach to the nearest socket, and the Graphite Fabric front looks understated, though it should always be kept clear of curtains and furnishings.
