Energy Efficiency Tips
Heat Storm infrared heaters are designed for efficiency, directly warming objects and people, not air. Utilize the programmable thermostat and timer functions within the mobile app to avoid unnecessary operation. Consider zoning your heating – only heat occupied rooms. Ensure the heater isn’t blocked by furniture, maximizing radiant heat distribution.
Regularly clean the heater to maintain optimal performance. Lowering the temperature setting even a few degrees can significantly reduce energy consumption. Explore smart features like scheduling to align heating with your daily routine, saving energy and costs.
Understanding Infrared Heating Technology
Heat Storm heaters utilize infrared technology, differing from traditional convection heating. Instead of warming the air, infrared heats objects and people directly, providing a more focused and efficient warmth. This method minimizes heat loss and creates a comfortable environment quickly. Infrared heat doesn’t dry out the air, offering a healthier heating alternative.
The radiant heat feels similar to sunshine, penetrating surfaces for consistent warmth. This technology is particularly effective in spaces with poor insulation or high ceilings, offering targeted heating where it’s needed most, maximizing energy savings.
