Infrared heaters

The heater was purchased for a problematic small office (8 meters), with a high ceiling (about 5 meters) and a large area of ​​glazing from floor to ceiling, as the central heating began to be lacking even with a slight minus, and it was also cool as usual before turning on the heating in the fall and immediately after a trip in the spring. It was hung on a cable between the walls due to the height of the ceiling, at the level of about 2.5 meters in the center of the office, together with an automatic temperature regulator.

It copes with its task well, for a comfortable temperature it’s enough up to minus 20 degrees on the street, for even colder weather, given the specifics of the room, the 1300 W variant would certainly be more suitable, it copes well in the above periods of autumn and spring, plus quite quickly removes excessive humidity in the room if necessary. It has been working for almost 5 years (the factory warranty is also declared as 5 years). The same heaters of different capacities and colors were later purchased by parents at the cottage and brother on the balcony

- very compact and does not look like a heater at all, often everyone thinks that this is some kind of lamp;
- well suited to remove excess moisture, but it does not burn oxygen.

- poorly suited for the role of the only heating source in the winter, ideal for additional or for the sole but not at subzero temperatures.

I decided to buy an infrared heater once, at that time there was a lot of advertising on this topic. Among all the possible I chose UFO and Bilyuks. In UFO, the price was biting, compared to the bilux, but the characteristics did not differ. So the choice fell on bilux. I bought it at the cottage, the room is small (15 sq / m) and he literally heated it in a minute !! For comparison, the convector heater coped with this task in about 40 minutes. Take it, for small rooms, what you need!

Significantly saves money in comparison with a convector heater and heats the room in a minute! Relatively compact and inexpensive.

Cracks slightly after heating

I have two Timberk infrared heaters in my house and I want to say that I am very pleased with their work. The room is heated much faster than oil radiators, less bulky and even more so installed on the ceiling, there is no effect of burnt air and energy consumption is several times less.

high productivity, profitability, compactness, do not burn air.

doesn't have

I bought a BeLux panel in the hope that it could heat the room. Bought on advertising, and ended up disappointed. It costs not at all cheaply, but in essence there is little sense.

Installation by the way is not easy, it needs to be mounted on the ceiling and the outlet with a cable is plugged in, not everyone can do it. Well, this is half the trouble, the main problem is that the heater itself is not any! To warm up, you will have to wait 20 minutes, after which the temperature in the room changes only by 2 degrees and that's it. There are no adjustment buttons, levers, it just works on / off and that's it.

In addition, the infrared heater is harmful to the body (found out after the purchase). Consumes electricity is not sickly. So, I do not advise you, it is expensive, but it does not matter much to heat. Do not spoil the room, choose something else for yourself. Infrared heaters - advertising, and more!

Not

Does not really warm, complicated installation, expensive, harmful to the body

The UFO Star infrared heater, model 1800, bought a little less than a year ago. This is a wonderful model that allows you to immediately feel the heat in the room immediately after switching on. It works without noise, does not absorb oxygen and does not dry air. A temperature controller is installed on the heater, with which you can maintain the optimum temperature value in automatic mode.

The heater can be installed either on a telescopic stand (which, if necessary, can be rearranged) or on the wall (for this purpose, the mount went with the heater). In addition, the infrared heater can also be used outdoors, the heat is already felt at a distance of two meters. For me, this is a useful, practical thing, thanks to which I feel more comfortable in the cool season. I advise, I think appreciate it.

good heater, no noise

not stable enough on a telescopic stand

Parents have a house on stove heating, and you won’t get cold in the cold, so we bought the UFO STAR 3000 infrared heater to help them. After three months of periodic use, the whole family has a very contradictory impression on him. When turned on, it heats up very quickly, but heats only purposefully. That's why I have to rearrange and twirl it, but I don’t really want to rotate it, because I can’t say that it is very stable. If there are children or animals at home, then they can simply toss it down. But a big plus, I think, is that it perfectly warms up the muscles.

reasonable price, it warms up muscles well

targeted heating only, not safe

The UFO Star 2300 heater settled in our office in the cold autumn and quickly disappointed everyone. The director of my company bought it, having seen enough of advertising and not bothering ourselves with our advice and wishes. Since I am the only girl in the men's team, this miracle of technology most often proudly stood behind me. When it was especially cold in the office they turned it on and, listening to the standard crack, waited for heat. Heat came, but it reached only our backs and not all of them.

The rest of the body, especially the legs, continued to freeze further. When heating power was added to the thermostat, the legs did not get warmer, and the back began to burn, since Ufo was no longer warming, but was frying. When trying to turn the head of the heater in all directions, as well as up and down, the situation did not change much. Subsequently, this “head” could simply fall sharply and even hit our sales manager.

Its price was also not pleasing, it would be better to buy two heaters easier, plus its leg holder was bought separately. The cord is very short, you have to transfer UFO often and you can not do without carrying it.

My husband and I have a small cottage with several rooms: a bedroom, a bathroom, a toilet, a loggia and a kitchen. For heating the cottages, we needed heaters. For a long time we wondered which one to choose, reviewed many options and settled on infrared. One we decided to hang in the bedroom above the bed, and the second found a place on the loggia.

In winter, when we arrive in the rooms the temperature is 7-8 degrees. Including heaters, the temperature rises to 23-24 degrees in a few hours.

Heaters fit perfectly into the interior, they are not particularly evident and do not interfere. The purchase price was quite affordable. The only minus was some cracking when the device was turned on for the first time. After consulting with specialists, we found out that it should be so. The next time we turned on the crackles we were no longer bothered.

Installation of the device turned out to be not difficult. The husband managed on his own and did not have to resort to professional help.

- affordable price;
- fast heating of the room.

- crackle at first start-up.
