- Which oxygen and what does not burn?
- Heatersother area. But one should not lose sight of the fact that different heaters affect the air atmosphere in the room differently. Many of them dry the air. Therefore, it is very important to make a choice in favor of a device that not only produces heat, but also maintains a healthy microclimate. After all, it directly affects the state of general well-being and human health. Now take a closer look at what kind of heater does not burn oxygen.
Which oxygen is burned and which is not?
What is the problem? A certain category of heaters is very dry air, that is, greatly reduce the level of moisture. Basically, old-generation oxygen heaters are burned:
- , those that have open shadows( spirals),
- fan heaters,
- fireplaces;
- homemade heating devices.
The best indicator for humans, a humidity level of 60%.With strong heating, this balance is disturbed, and there is a constant desire to ventilate the house. Such manipulations in the cold season are not too convenient, because this can lead to drafts. And it is illogical to heat and release heat.
Another disadvantage of such heaters is that the dust falling on the heating object causes its combustion, and therefore toxic emissions are released into the air.
Disadvantages a lot. To make the right choice in favor of the heater for the house, you should find out which of them do not dry the air.
Modern heaters are designed in such a way that the oxygen burning level is rather low, and some models do not burn it at all. Fortunately, now there is a choice of such heaters. All of them differ not only brand and manufacturer, but there are different types of work and principle.
Types of heaters that do not burn oxygen
If you are faced with the choice of a safe and efficient heater for housing or other premises, then the following options are offered to your attention:
- Infrared heaters.
- Oil Batteries.
- Ceramic panels.
- Parokapelnye heaters.
- Quartz heaters.
- Convectors.
- Micatermic Heaters.
In practice, the listed devices are widely used to heat a dwelling, office or summer house. Consider in detail each of the species.
Infrared Heaters
Heaters of this type have proven themselves well. Their direct action is aimed at heating objects, and then heating the room as a whole. Thus, even when it is turned off, it is still warm for the room for some time.
- It has no effect on the air. That is, do not overheat it, thereby not burning oxygen.
- Reasonably safe, as infrared rays in no way cause burns to humans.
- The advantage is its versatility. Such a heater can be used not only indoors, but also outdoors.
- Another advantage is the low power consumption and the relatively low cost of this device.
The infrared heater is somewhat similar to a convector heater, but it differs by the principle of operation. Therefore, choosing, consumers often fluctuate between two options.
Oil Heaters
This type of radiator produces heat by heating the oil inside it. Thus, the heat of a given temperature is radiated( depending on the mode).
Oil, like the previous ones, does not burn oxygen, therefore it is optimal for the correct balance of heat and moisture. The advantage of this type of heater is that the apartment heats up quickly. However, among others, it has fewer advantages, due to the fact that:
- consumes a lot of electricity.
- The surface of the radiator heats up. This is the risk of getting burned.
- Such a heater should not be left on when leaving the premises.
Ceramic panels
This type of heater is characterized by a hidden heating device. Constructed in such a way that the heating element is in a ceramic shell. That is, the heat does not come from him directly, but from the heated ceramic surface. It can be emphasized that such a heater dries the air several times less than that which emits heat from the heated metal surface. Since the latter is more capable of oxidizing the air by burning it.
This model is characterized by a relief coating, due to which the heater surface heats up less and, therefore, will dry the air less.
Steam Heaters
This radiator has a special pattern of operation. It has a heating element, and as an aid, water. That is, the water is heated, which results in the release of warm steam, which heats the room. Condensate is collected in the radiator, and the circulation process takes place.
According to the characteristic, it is not difficult to understand that such a device does not dry the air at all, but on the contrary, contributes to a favorable and necessary level of moisture in the room.
At the same time, the steam and steam device for heating is quite economical, since it consumes little electricity. And when it is turned off, heat is retained for a long time.
Quartz heater
View of the infrared type of heaters, as well as from among those that do not reduce the level of moisture in the room. This is due to the fact that quartz is a highly resistant type of material. It does not heat up to very high temperatures, and as a result does not burn oxygen. However, it effectively heats things and people. It exudes pleasant, like natural, warmth.
Convection heaters
A very popular type of heater for any room. The device has a rather natural way of working. From the bottom, through the grill, cold air enters the radiator, heats up to the desired temperature and goes outside. Over time, the air is cooled and the procedure is repeated. Using the sensor, you can set the degree of heat.
Convector works in such a way that heated air comes out, but without loss of moisture. This type of heater does not contain a fan, heats only the air, and the casing itself does not heat up, which makes it safe. That is, it is the best way to maintain the desired temperature in the room without disturbing the humidity level. Convector heaters are of three types - wall, floor and recessed.
Micatermic Heaters
This modern type of heater is a fairly new technology. By type refers to infrared, and is characterized as an economical option for heating. Unlike heating devices similar to it, it emits long infrared waves.
Such a device can be used as a floor radiator or mounted on a wall. The heating element of this device is a metal plate with a transparent layered mineral coating.
Such a heater is considered to be know-how among climate technology, therefore its cost is higher than others. If you decide to purchase this type of heater, then considering its novelty and high price, it is recommended:
- Follow the instructions for use clearly;
- Buy such equipment only in specialized stores, with the possibility of exchange or return if necessary;
- Find out about the availability of warranty service.
Please, it’s enough that there are plenty of options for heating the room during the cold season. And even more pleased that there is an opportunity to choose one that not only warms, but also does not harm health.
It can be safely noted that all the options considered deserve attention. Choose a specific of them should be based on personal preferences, as well as the size and interior space.
