Don’t burn away your money using your fan heater this winter
Infrared Heaters Vs Electric Fan Heaters?
If you’re still using an electric fan heater, you might be underestimating the true cost and efficiency of your heating solution. Electric fan heaters and oil heaters, with wattages ranging from 2,000 to 5,000 kW, are known for being some of the most expensive ways to heat your space. While the initial cost of an electric fan heater is often lower, the long term expenses can add up due to higher energy usage from electricity. Infrared heaters, on the other hand, have a higher initial cost but are more energy efficient and cost effective in the long run. Over time, the savings on your energy bills can offset the higher purchase price of an infrared heater.
Infrared heaters work by emitting infrared radiation, which directly heats objects and people in the room rather than the air. This method of heating is highly efficient as it minimises heat loss and ensures that the warmth is felt almost instantaneously.
How Electric Fan Heaters Work
Electric fan heaters use an internal fan to blow air over a heating element, which then distributes warm air throughout the room. While this can quickly raise the temperature, it also means that heat is dispersed unevenly and can be lost through drafts and open doors. Additionally, the moving parts and the fan can produce noise, which might be distracting in a quiet environment.
Energy efficient infrared heaters are a much more cost effective solution and reduce your heating bill and can be installed on walls or under desks, where fan heaters are used so much in office environments. In one particular office, we have swapped fan heaters in small offices where they had upto 6 oil radiators and fan heaters, totalling around 18kw of electric use, with only 4 x 900w infrared panels, totalling a low 3.6kw only.
The Infrared Heating Advantage
Infrared heaters provide a superior alternative. Here’s why:
- Energy Efficient Infrared heaters can reduce your heating bills by up to 60%. With wattages from only 0.35kw up to 3kw, these infrared heaters are more energy efficient and can reduce your electric bills drastically
- Health Benefits of Infrared heating, there's no air circulation, meaning less dust and allergens in the air. This leads to a healthier environment.
- Silent and Comfortable: Infrared heaters operate silently and provide a comfortable warmth without the dry heat associated with fan heaters.
- Flexible Installation: These heaters can be free-standing, wall-mounted, or installed above the ceiling, making them versatile for any space.
Switching to infrared heating not only benefits your wallet but also your well-being. Imagine no more dry throats, no irritating fan noise, and a significant reduction in your energy bills.
