Fan heaters in everyday life: TOP-5 interesting offers

In the low-cost segment of fan heaters, almost all heaters are for one person. The RAS10-H model from Rotex stands out from the mass of similar offers, a compact heater with a vertically elongated hot air outlet grille.

The device is designed for heating rooms with an area of 15-20 sq.m, but as practice shows, its place is in the kitchen or in a small room with a square of 10-15 sq.m. The model accelerates the air currents preheated by a spiral around the perimeter of the room very measuredly. At first, the operation of the fan heater is accompanied by a persistent smell of plastic, which disappears over time.

There are three modes in the heater: heating at half strength, at full power and ventilation without connecting the heating element to the operation. At maximum fan speed, the Rotex RAS10-H consumes 2000 W of power. The desired mode is selected by one of the control wheels on the heater body. At the same time, the function of setting the desired temperature is assigned to the second regulator, which is maintained by the device at the same level using the built-in thermostat.

For the sake of cheapness, a fan heater is assembled from not the highest quality plastic. Scratches are actively multiplying on the body of the device and technological seams are visible to the naked eye. Also, many users would like to see in the equipment of the device a power cord of greater length than the meter "native". You can close your eyes to most of the shortcomings for reasons of affordable cost, especially since all of them are not so critical.

Someone else, but the Swedes, with their snowy and cold winters, know a lot about efficient space heating. The EFH/S-1120 fan heater comes from the Scandinavian lands, where the patrimony of the famous Electrolux brand is located.

The model is assembled from environmentally friendly materials in a compact body that combines elements of white and gray. In addition, it is included in the group of devices of the design ART-series, which means that it will not be difficult to fit the heater to match the modern office or home interior. In the external image of the fan heater, the so-called "horns" stand out - the thermostat knobs and switching operating modes with a rubberized coating.

The operation of the heater can be organized in one of three modes: ventilation, blowing with warm or hot air. For switching between them, the answer is the right “twist”. The left knob sets the desired heating temperature, upon reaching which the thermostat automatically stops the heater. Air currents break out of the “nozzle” of the fan heater not directly parallel to the floor, but in the direction slightly from the bottom up, which ensures a uniform distribution of heated air around the perimeter of the room.

The device is reliably protected from possible breakdowns by the overheating protection system. However, the Swedish manufacturer still could not do without a fly in the ointment - in reviews of the model, users often blame the insufficient length of the power cord. On the other fronts Electrolux EFH / S-1120 is a strong player in the mid-low-cost field and is in consistently high demand from a motley audience, whether they are office workers or warm-loving households.

The fan heater "in style" from Scarlett has a presentable appearance and adequately copes with the tasks of heating small rooms (about 10-15 sq.m).

The main trump card in the sleeve of the model is a ceramic heating element, which practically does not dry the air and does not emit unpleasant odors when it enters the dust heating zone. Ceramic plates have high thermal conductivity and are many times safer than the spiral "classics of the genre".

The Scarlett SC-FH53K11 heater works in two modes: at full steam, it consumes 1500 W of power, quickly heating the air in the room, and when operating at half strength (750 W), it maintains a comfortable temperature in the room. Moreover, the possibility of blowing without heating was “not delivered” to the fan heater, so for the summer it will have to be hidden in a closet. Fortunately, the "duika" does not take up much space (20.8x16.5x7 cm), and it weighs nothing at all - about 1 kg.

The safety systems in service with the model are represented by overheating protection and auto-off in case of rollover, which significantly reduces the risk of fire. A spectacular appearance completes the image of the fan heater - the combination of black and white elements of the device case looks advantageous both in the kitchen interior and in the bedroom or children's room, regardless of the style of their design.

For the first time products under the sign of the Italian brand De'Longhi appeared on store shelves over four decades ago. Today, De'Longhi coffee machines and heating appliances are in demand among the public, one of the representatives of the genus of which is a fan heater with the model index HVA 3220B.

The device will become a lifesaver in the off-season, when it gets colder outside, but the heating has not yet been turned on or it has already been turned off, despite the fact that spring has not had time to enter into its legal rights. However, in the summer heat, the model also does not have to be hidden far away - one of its modes of operation provides for airflow without heating. Also, the fan heater is able to operate at half the heat of the spiral (1000 W) and at full power (2000 W), quickly heating the air in a room up to 20 sq.m and evenly distributing it to all corners of the room.

For switching modes in the answer "twist" at the top left. The regulator similar in appearance to the right allows you to set the desired heating temperature, upon reaching which the built-in thermostat automatically stops the fan heater. The spiral heating element itself, together with the blades of the mini-fan, is “under cover” of the plastic grille.

The model also has its own highlight: the frost protection function. When it is turned on, the temperature in the room is maintained at 5 ° C, which allows you to protect the wall from freezing, for example, a country house without serious costs of electricity or gas. As a result, the fan heater justifiably occupies the top lines of popularity in the segment of strong middle peasants, captivating the end user with its advanced functionality and the complete absence of serious shortcomings.

Design is the main thing that captivates the products of the Swiss brand Stadler Form. Otherwise, the fan heater with the name of the Max model would hardly have been on display at the New York Museum of Modern Art MoMo. The heater will become a bright part of the interior and emphasize the good taste of the owners of the house.

Relying on a trio of graceful legs, the model's alien body of bright colors seems to hover above the floor surface. However, the heating device is still unable to levitate - it will be necessary to manually transfer its 2.5-kilogram “carcass” from place to place. In the image and likeness of the fulcrum, mechanical controls are made on the “back of the head”: a power switch (1000/2000 W, it also starts the blowing mode without heating) and a temperature controller.

In addition to the classic role, the Stadler Form Max has a frost protection function on its shoulders. Its meaning is to automatically maintain the temperature in the room at a level of 5-7 ° C above zero in order to avoid freezing of the walls of a country house or an unheated pantry. True, in the latter there is no place for such a stylish fan heater.

In work, the Stadler Form Max shows itself exclusively in a positive way: it is not noisy (according to the "passport" - 40 dB), quickly distributes heated air over the entire area of a room up to 20 sq.m in size and rarely fails. And although you will have to overpay for a fan heater from the start, the reason to boast of the spectacular design of the model is worth a lot.
