Fan Heaters

Fan heaters are small, portable electric heaters,
providing instant warmth for small
spaces and individual comfort.

Che cos’è un termoventilatore?

Un termoventilatore è un apparecchio elettrico per riscaldamento che funziona grazie a una resistenza elettrica abbinata a una ventola. La presenza di questi due elementi garantisce un rapido riscaldamento dell'aria attorno all'utilizzatore. I termoventilatori sono apparecchi che vengono utilizzati principalmente in ambienti raccolti, magari lasciati chiusi per molto tempo, e rappresentano un ottimo ausilio all’impianto di riscaldamento domestico. Il funzionamento di un termoventilatore è piuttosto semplice: la ventola, una volta azionata, muove l’aria che, tramite la resistenza collocata davanti o dietro di lei, viene riscaldata e soffiata nell’ambiente circostante. La resistenza elettrica può essere metallica o ceramica.

Traditional Fan Heaters vs Ceramic Fan Heaters

Traditional Fan Heaters vs Ceramic Fan Heaters

While conventional fan heaters relies only on heating wires to heat the air, ceramic fan heaters use a ceramic heating plate, which get heated by the electricy and heats up the surrounding air. This allows the ceramic fan heaters radiate heat long after the heater has been turned off, since the plate retains more heat than the metal wire. Ceramic space heaters are also much quieter than traditional fan heaters.

Energy consumption

Energy consumption

Electric fan heaters can provide cosy warmth on cold winter evenings, but it must be taken into account that they generally use more electricity than other electric heaters to warm up a room of the same size. However, as they are suitable for small rooms, it is possible to keep energy consumption under control by using small tricks such as remembering to close windows during use and switching off devices once the desired heat is reached.
