There's a wide selection of electric heaters out there these days, all made to bring a little light and warmth into your life. Here at Primrose we have produced a guide to highlight all the key differences between the heating elements, in order to help give you a better understanding of each model.
All Electric heaters are powered by a bulb. The difference lies as to what bulb each model uses.
Each type of bulb gives off either 'short wave', 'medium wave' or 'long wave' radiation.
The short wave heaters will warm you up instantly as the infra-red light penetrates to the skin as heat energy, while longer wave heaters
warm the air around you.
Below is the classification of the bulb types highlighting their main features and benefits.
Quartz Bulbs - Medium to Long Wave
Clear Halogen Bulbs - Short wave
Ruby Red Halogen Bulbs - Short wave
Gold Bulbs - Short wave
Both the Ruby and Gold bulbs will help to filter out white light and will provide a more aesthetically pleasing warm glow. This also means that less electricity is wasted on creating visible light and is converted into heat radiation instead, something that's preferable whilst keeping warm.
