Appliance description

The infrared heater operates using a highly efficient gold-coloured short wave halogen element. You get full heat immediately and it emits up to more than 20% more heat than older infrared heaters and converts most of the energy to heat. The short wave infrared light can be compared to the sun's radiation and only heats people within the heater's immediate area instead of the surrounding air, even in windy conditions. The coating filters the visible light to a more comfortable light that is not blinding.
