5 The most popular models and prices of energy-saving heaters

• 5.1 Which is better and more economical for a house or apartment
  • 5.1.1 Table: The average cost of economical electric heaters

What is a heater for a home for a reason to become an energy-efficient model for a home to get energy efficiencyModern heaters - is the presence of mechanical or electronic control of heating elements and other mechanisms. Preferably - with stable electricity - electronic thermostat. This method involves advanced functionality and the presence of several programs that allow you to automatically maintain a given temperature to within one degree."Smart" electronics can perform climate control, which will create a feeling of comfort in the room. The presence of the power switch suggests the possibility of the heater to work on several modes, with the connection of a different number of heating elements( tubular electric heaters).Summarizing, we conclude: an energy-saving heater is considered to be one that has high heat transfer efficiency and low power consumption, with automatic operation.

Classification

This type of electrical household appliances for a country house or apartment differ among themselves:

• installation site;
• used heating principle;
• automation level and control method;
• worth.

Installation location and mounting type

There are such constructions of energy-saving heaters for the home:

• floor type;
• wall models;
• ceiling fixtures.

Each species has its advantages and disadvantages.

Floor Heaters

They are divided into two types: mobile and stationary. Mobile designs include wheel heaters or portable heaters. They have a zone of thermal comfort is limited by the height of the device.

Heaters on wheels are mobile, convenient because they can be placed in close proximity to a person.

Stationary devices are mounted under a floor covering, for example a heated floor, or built into a wall, for example an electric fireplace.

The electric fireplace performs two functions: it is a design element and heats the room.

Wall heaters

These include stationary views that are hung on the wall. Their main advantage is the saving of useful space in the room and design. The zone of thermal comfort extends to the height of their placement on the wall.

The type of wall heaters includes many types, including infrared, convector, ceramic and other

. Ceiling heaters

Installing appliances on the ceiling automatically expands the zone of thermal comfort and contributes to the most economical use of energy resources.

The range of ceiling heaters is quite diverse

The principle of heating

Modern household heaters produce and distribute heat in different ways. According to these principles, they are divided into the following groups:

1. Heating of ambient air from contact with the hot surface of the heating device( oil radiators)
2. Convection natural currents of rising warm air( electric convectors)
3. Forced flows of heated air( heat guns, heat fans).
4. Heating using infrared radiation( ceramic, quartz, carbon, halogen, mikatermicheskie heaters).

Consider each view in a little more detail.

Oil Heaters

They are distinguished not only by direct heat transfer, but also by the high power of the heating elements. In some models, the metal case has a complex configuration, which allows, along with direct jets, to emit convection heat fluxes.

The oil heater is used in cases when it is not necessary to heat the room quickly.

Modern oil radiators are equipped with automatic means of maintaining the set temperature and a timer to turn on and off at a certain time. They are relatively cheap, safe, mobile. Their minuses: bulkiness, inertia of a warming up, unpretentious design.

More about this kind of as a whole: https: //tehznatok.com/ kak-vyibrat /obogrevatel/ maslyanyij.html

convectors electric

They have heating elements located inside the housing, constructed in such a way that cold air enters through the holes from the bottom, is heated and, coming through the cracks, forming a powerfulnatural flow going up.

Electric convector made with regard to energy saving. This is facilitated by an electronic control unit and the presence of closed heaters with an aluminum diffuser

. Mixing with the room atmosphere, warm jets quickly and efficiently heat the room. Advantages: noiseless, high heat transfer efficiency, different versions. Disadvantage: high cost.

Some models of convectors are equipped with additional devices that will make the atmosphere in the room clean and healthy. These are ionizers and air purifiers.

In more detail about the principle of operation and the varieties of such equipment: https: //tehznatok.com/This type of heater consumes a significant amount of energy and produces noise.

Power supply 220–240 V, 50 Hz;heating modes 1000/2000 W;maximum power of 2000 W;fan mode;temperature maintenance mode;overheat protection;light indication of work

The main advantage - the room quickly warms up due to the intensive mixing of air. Most models are equipped with buttons for mechanical control. Modern electric fans have several modes of operation.

Infrared Heaters

The device of this type of home appliances includes approximately the same set of elements. These are reflectors, reflectors and emitters made of refractory metals or inert materials. A huge role is played by the wavelength of thermal radiation. Short and medium waves for residential use is not recommended.

Infra-red heaters are popular among the public because of simple safe operation, soft non-burning radiation, compactness.

Long-wave radiators are used for houses and apartments, because the heat from them is safe, soft( similar to sunlight), comfortable. The materials for emitters are materials that are safe for human health: ceramics, quartz, carbon, metal, flexible film.

The nuances of the operation of such equipment are set out in the article https: //tehznatok.com/ kak-vyibrat /obogrevatel/ infrakrasnyij.html

Ceramic heaters

This type of IR heaters is practical and cost-effective. Heat from them is not transmitted to the air, so ceramic heaters are used to heat objects( furniture, work area, etc.) and create comfortable conditions for the human body.

Ceramic Panel - is an economical, energy-saving heater popular among homeowners

Soft heat, comparable to the sun's rays. Available in floor, table, wall and ceiling versions.

Quartz heaters

This type of energy-saving home appliances mounted on the walls, refers to the stationary heating equipment. There are also desktop models, but they are not popular because of the increased health risks.

Quartz heater can be a worthy alternative to the usual method of heating.

Wall and ceiling models are relatively safe, warm( cool for a long time), do not affect the oxygen content and humidity in the room.

Carbon Heaters

Most often they are compared with an electric light bulb, in which instead of a nichrome spiral there is a carbon heating element. Lightweight, ultrastrong, possessing better thermal conductivity than many metals - carbon fiber fibers made of carbon are comparable with titanium in their characteristics. A spiral of twisted threads is inserted into a tube made of tempered glass. Then the air is pumped out of the tube, and it is sealed. In vacuum, the carbon helix will not blow if the heater is operated according to the instructions. The carbon heater is then mounted in a housing with a reflector made of anodized aluminum. The assembled heater has an elongated shape. The vacuum tube is mechanically protected by a wire grid. When turned on, the carbon filament heats up and starts radiating long-wave infrared heat. Soft, comfortable, favorable.

Carbon heaters are distinguished by their elongated shape, compactness, and high radiation efficiency. The power of the device depends on the thickness of the

carbon helix. Innovative models are equipped with a control panel, a built-in temperature sensor with mechanical or electronic control, and a stand with a rotating function. Despite its compact size, carbon-fired heaters have an enviable performance.

Halogen Heaters

About them users respond differently. Someone praises, someone gives a negative assessment. And all because the main element of the device is a halogen lamp, which not only shines, but also generates infrared short-wave warm radiation. For the bedroom, it does not fit, but for the other rooms - just right.

Halogen heater with power adjustment, remote control, body turning by 70 degrees.

In a glass bulb with a tungsten filament or carbon fiber, the helix is ​​heated to 2000o C. In this case, infrared long waves are emitted, which are sent by the reflector as heat flux. It heats the walls, floor and ceiling of the room, as well as furniture and other objects in the room. Durability, quiet operation, instantaneous heating - these characteristics attract customers.

Mictermic Heaters

This new generation of home appliances is able to press many models of familiar heaters for the home. The main element of the innovative device is the mikatermichesky heater, covered on both sides with microscopic mica( mica in English mica) film.

Conventional heaters heat the air, and infrared and microtermic objects standing in the path of propagation.

As the current flows through the mic, it heats and radiates infrared long waves into the surrounding space, which heat the objects in the pathway without heating the air.

The mikatermichesky heater has many advantages: it is easy to use and maintain, the number of settings is minimal, so even a child can cope with the control.

This type of heaters is characterized by high heating efficiency, which is more than twice the heat transfer of other analogues, because it generates heat on two sides. There are other advantages. Rapid heating of the rooms immediately after connecting to the network, a relatively small power saves electricity. Does not affect air humidity and oxygen concentration. Reliable and safe. There is a button to turn off the heater when overturning or overheating.

Film electric heaters

Structurally, this type of heat source is designed as follows: thin carbon bands up to 1 mm thick are covered with polyester on both sides. This moisture resistant polymer is a dielectric. The strips are connected to copper buses, to which the supply wires are soldered.

Using infrared film, it is possible to reduce electricity consumption by 40%, due to optimal heating of the air in the room.

All these parts are mounted in a resistive foil and form an infrared film system, with a surface temperature of not more than 50o C. The degree of heating is controlled by a thermostat. The film heater can be laid under the floor, on the walls or on the ceiling. It radiates heat, like long waves from an electric fireplace.

Criteria for the selection of electric heaters for the home

Suburban dwelling for permanent residence or apartment need additional heat when the central or autonomous heating is not yet started or has already stopped working, and it is cold outside. The main indicators that are worth paying attention to:

• type of heater;
• power;
• fire hazard;
• type of convection;
• installation method;
• type of heaters;
• design;
• additional features;
• price.

Pros and cons of each type of

When choosing a particular type of electric heater, it is important to understand for what purpose it is needed. It's one thing to use it as an extra heat source at night in the bedroom. And a completely different option if the heater will work around the clock to heat a room of about 20 m2.For convenience, all the pros and cons are grouped.

Carbon heater Polaris PKSH 0508H

Benefits: if you put it next to you, you immediately feel the warmth UNDERHEdry

With the onset of autumn I decided to buy a heater, assuming that it will be used in my mom's room.
Chose a completely new option for me - carbon fiber heater.
When choosing a carbon heater, I was bribed by two features specified by the manufacturer:
- carbon heater does not burn oxygen
- consumes little electricity

Indeed, energy consumption is small - the maximum power of a carbon heater POLARIS PKSH 0508H is only 800 watts. In addition, the heater has two modes of operation - more( 2) and less intense( 1).It is autumn now, I use a carbon-fiber heater for about 2 months and for the time being I work around the regime with a small intensity, and it is only 350 watts. Well, winter is still ahead! .Turning it on, I do not observe a mad counter rotation, as it usually happens with other variants of heaters. This makes me happy!

Pros: if you put it next to you, you immediately feel pleasantly warm, so you can quickly warm up, coming, for example, from the street in dank weather. There is a timer for 180 minutes, you can turn on the heater and go to bed. Turn off by itself.

Cons: I noticed that if you sit around the heater for a long time( more than 3 hours), your head starts to hurt, even a feeling of general “weakness” appears. I think this is due to the fact that heat radiates very directionally and the body warms up quite unevenly. The idea of ​​putting him in a room with his mother for this reason has disappeared - his mother is an elderly person and she has problems with pressure and blood vessels. For her, this is definitely not useful.

I use a heater, if I want to warm myself, get a portion of heat. In this mode, it suits me perfectly. The chests; the tx;

We chose heaters with a husband for a long time, bought several different ones to choose from. But this model was the best. I liked the purely superficially beautiful design, special cuts were made at the back so that you could hang it on the wall. Also, this heater has special wheels on the bottom and is very convenient to move from the room. Very good power of 1500 W, there are three heating modes. This model is equipped with the Anti-frost function, that is, it automatically turns on if the temperature in the room is below 5 degrees Celsius, thereby protecting the home from freezing. Also has a setting to automatically turn off when falling, it is very convenient if there are small children in the house. I also liked this heater because it is relatively safe for the child, if it accidentally slips, it will not get hurt. If you put on a lattice any thing or accidentally hit an object, this model is automatically turned off. In general, I advise everyone to this heater, especially who has small children in the house. Production China. And to simply wash it off, I first turn it off and pull it out of the outlet, vacuum the grill and wipe it with a damp cloth. I am pleased with the work of this heater.

To date, the market offers a wide range of electric heaters of all types that will help create heat in a country house or apartment. But making the right choice is extremely difficult. Everywhere advertising, praising the characteristics and capabilities of their products, often not always reliable. The recommendation is one. More trust reviews on the Internet, trying to find in them the nuggets of truth. Also take into account the need to take well-known brands for which the reputation is not an empty phrase. EU countries, Japan, South Korea are represented on the Russian market by many models of heaters. It makes sense to learn more about the products of Russian manufacturers.
