Smith’s Ecovector VE2500 Vertical Hydronic Fan Convector – HPEV50021

Smith’s Ecovector VE2500 Vertical Hydronic Fan Convector – HPEV50021 Overview The Smith’s Ecovector VE2500 Vertical Hydronic Fan Convector delivers powerful, efficient heating from a compact upright design. Ideal for hallways, corridors, alcoves, and open-plan spaces where wall area is limited, this vertical fan convector provides rapid, even warmth while complementing modern interiors. Operating from your wet central heating system, it integrates seamlessly with boilers, biomass systems, and renewable heat sources such as ground- or air-source heat pumps. Energy Efficiency and Performance Using only around 5% of the water content of an equivalent-output radiator, the VE2500 heats up quickly and reduces boiler or heat pump run time. With a heat output up to 8,530 BTU/h (2.5 kW nominal), it operates efficiently at water temperatures from 40°C–80°C, making it suitable for both conventional and low-temperature systems. Fan assistance circulates heat evenly from floor to ceiling for consistent comfort, while the ultra-quiet fan runs at 36–39 dBA. Design and Installation The floor-mounted vertical format saves valuable wall space and fits neatly in narrow areas. Installation is straightforward with 15 mm flow and return connections and a supplied mounting bracket for secure fixing. The zinc-coated steel casing is finished in durable RAL 9010 white polyester powder coat, and the low-surface-temperature (LST) casing enhances safety in public and commercial settings. Control and Operation Controls include a rocker switch for low/off/high fan speed, a low-temperature cut-out thermostat that energises the fan at approximately 35°C, and a wireless wall thermostat for convenient temperature control. The result is quiet, efficient, and automatic heating tailored to your space.
