Electric Infrared Heaters – Best Appliances to Stay Warm and Healthy
Electric infrared heaters are very essential when winter breaks in. You need to protect yourself, your kids and pets against the biting cold, because the temperature drops drastically. Electric infrared heaters aid in keeping you warm without raising your power bill substantially. They are safe to everyone – your kids, pets and the environment.
How electric infrared heaters work?
The underlying mechanism of electric infrared heaters is infrared radiation or light. The heating element in an infrared heater, when heated by electric power, emits infrared light. Infrared light is invisible to you and does not heat the air in contact. However, when it hits your body, you feel the warmth. As infrared light does not heat up the air in contact, the amount of loss of heat is almost zero. The infrared radiation is similar to sunshine which warms the objects that it hits. As there is no loss of heat, the heating effect is uniform throughout your home.
Most of the electric infrared heaters are inbuilt with thermostats. Set a temperature you think you will be comfortable at and leave the rest to your infrared heater. It stops further heating once the temperature is reached. Thus, you can have a say in controlling your power bills.
How electric infrared heaters ensure warmth?
These heaters are known for their effectiveness in giving out uniform warmth everywhere, in your room, cubicle, garage, etc.
Provide even and instant heat: Unlike convection heaters, which work on the basis of propagation of heat through air, infrared heaters do not require any medium, say air for propagation. Hence, there is minimal or no loss of heat. Also, unlike in case of convection type heaters, you feel the warmth as soon as you turn on the heater. This is because of the very nature of infrared light.
Enable efficient heat: As said, infrared heaters emit heat with minimum loss because it is not absorbed by the air in contact. Hence, the whole amount of heat is absorbed by objects in its contact. On the other hand, in a convection type heater, the air in the room first gets heated up and then the objects or people present in the room.
How electric infrared heaters ensure health benefits?
Infrared heaters have no adverse health implications on the health of human or any other living being.
Emit natural radiation: Infrared light is a clean, safe, non-polluting and environmentally safe. It is similar to solar radiation, that is, the sunshine we get. Unlike convection type heaters, heat is not transformed through air. It is only when objects and living beings receive the light that you feel the warmth.
Maintain moisture content in air: Heat emitted by infrared heaters does not affect the moisture in air and humidity remains unchanged. As the moisture level remains unchanged, there is less chance of air pollution and negative impact on the health. Whereas in case of convection type of heaters, the air in the home they operate in becomes dry which results in pollen, dust, smoke drifting into the room.
Do not emit toxic fumes: Infrared radiation is free from toxic fumes, dust or any particulate matter. As these heaters do not burn fossil fuels like gasoline, wood, etc., pollution at home due to such emissions is ruled out.
Offer various health benefits: From the stand point of health, infrared radiation is good for human beings. The light they emit is said to improve blood circulation and maintain the blood pressure at the correct level, apart from making muscle and other tissues function at the optimal efficiency.
Of the different types of space heaters available, electric infrared heaters are considered as one of the effective ones. They not only provide warmth and health benefits, they are cost-efficient too.
