The device of oil heater
For the manufacture of oil-type instruments, black metal is used. The details are cut out on a laser machine, and small elements are stamped. The sections of the heater consist of separate elements, connected together by a press and precise welding. The finished structure is painted with powder paint and sent to the oven for polymerization.
At the next stage of production, oil is added to the device and a tubular heater, electrical cable is installed, plastic or metal panels are installed. On one of the panels is set the thermostat on and off, the regulator degree of heating.
Oil radiators of modern models do not need to re-fill the oil, so they do not have a valve.
Drying of air is observed when the room is heated with an oil device. To avoid this problem, manufacturers install a water tank on the device. For easy movement of the heater in the right place, there are small solid wheels. Considering the arrangement of the oil heater, it is necessary to pay attention to the principle of operation.
It consists in the following: when switched on, the heater is first heated, the second phase is heated oil, and the heater body is heated from it. From the body heat goes into the room. For faster warming up of air, manufacturers produce models of oil heater with fans.
Criteria for selecting an oil heater
Visit the store and take a look at the heater models for sale. You will be surprised by a large number of devices. Before you give preference to one of them, pay attention to their parameters:
- Oil Heater Power. To heat a room measuring 10 m2, a device with a capacity of 1 kW is sufficient. For a more accurate calculation of the required power, add more kW to the loss of heat through the external walls, doors and windows. The most powerful oil heaters for a house have a power of 3 kW. For rooms with an area of 30 m2, two or more appliances must be installed.
- External dimensions of oil heaters. Dimensions of heaters can be very different. For convenient movement of large radiators, special handles and wheels are attached.
- Specificity of the design.In addition to the basic structure consisting of sections, heating elements, oil, cable, the device can be built in: overheat protection, light indication, thermostats, mode switches. This is a very convenient addition to the device and with its help the consumer can save on electricity consumption.

Heaters with narrow sections consume much less electricity and heat the room much more slowly. Devices with wide sections consume more electricity and quickly heat space.
Because of how much the oil heater consumes depends on your expenses for payment of utilities.
If you liked the device of a large size, but light in weight, refuse to purchase. Insignificant weight with large dimensions means that a thin metal was used for its manufacture or the sections are not completely filled with oil. Such devices do not work for long.
For small rooms, it makes no sense to buy a heater with a large capacity. The air in the room will be constantly dry, which is undesirable for human health.
