The Vote Is In – Heat Panels Are Hot
Sleek, simple lines, unobtrusive, fast and cost effective – micathermic panel heaters tick all the right boxes for the winter of 2009.
Noted for its increased speed, efficiency and safety, micathermic heating technology has eclipsed the more traditional heating formats such as column heaters and dedicated convection heaters.
Micathermic technology produces radiant and convection heat simultaneously and reaches maximum heat output within 60 seconds. It is a safe, clean heat that creates no fumes, no sound, does not dehumidify the room and is extremely safe.
Omega Appliances, one of Australia’s leading domestic heating suppliers, has a range of micathermic panel heaters in varying sizes suitable for large living areas, bedrooms and small studies. Each is a slim, white ‘panel’ that can be attached to a wall or used on discreet casters and each combines high performance with sleek, unobtrusive styling.
The four models – the 2400 watt PF3224, the 2000 watt PF3220, the 1500 watt PF3215 and the 1000 watt PF3210 – are thermostatically controlled, have electronic timers and can be moved from room to room with ease.
And owing to the fact that these heaters have no visible coils or quartz tubes, they are safer than conventional radiant heaters. Micathermic heating technology, due to its lack of fumes, is also an ideal solution for those with asthma or respiratory problems.
The Omega micathermic panel heater range carries a two year warranty and is available nationally from electrical retail outlets, appliance specialists and some department stores. The PF3224 retails for $249, the PF3220 for $229, the PF3215 $185 and the PF3210 $169.
