Understanding Panel Heaters
Panel heaters are versatile heating solutions that come in various types, each with its own set of features and benefits.
Most panel heater appliances on the Australian market are convection-only panel heaters. They only heat the air, and produce minimal radiant heat. This includes electric heater brands like Rinnai, Omega Altise, Stiebel-Eltron, DeLonghi and Nobo panel heaters.
Whereas our oil-filled electric heaters from Purmo are true radiators, they produce a balance of radiant and convection heat, ideal for keeping your family warm and comfortable.
This section will delve into the primary differences between wall-mounted electric radiators and convection electric panel heaters, highlighting their impact on your heating experience.
Wall Mounted Radiators vs Convection Electric Panel Heaters
A wall mounted electric radiator, like our Yali Plus and Parada Plus models:
-
Emits a balance of radiant heat and convection heat, providing unparalled, even comfort and heat throughout the room.
-
Has a fully enclosed element, meaning it never burns dust or allergens.
-
Is great for use in drying cupboards and bathrooms, thanks to the IP44 splash rating.
-
Is heavier and built to last, and as such costs more upfront.
-
May be more expensive initially but are usually cheaper to operate in the long run because of the accurate thermostat, energy saving features and the effect of radiant heat on human comfort.
On the other hand, a convection electric panel heater:
-
Only heats the air via convection, and produces minimal radiant heat.
-
Has an exposed element, that can burn dust and allergens and sometimes pose a fire risk.
-
Is usually not suitable for use in drying cupboards of bathrooms.
-
Is light, slim and cheap to buy. The construction is usually lightweight and sometimes flimsy.
-
They are often designed to be portable and can come with castor feet.
-
May cost more to operate, depending on factors such as ceiling height and thermostat accuracy.
How efficient is a panel heater?
All resistive electric heating is essentially 100% electrically efficient. However, this doesn't meant the real-world running costs are all the same. In fact, some panel heaters can be considerably more efficient and economical to operate.
-
A panel heater that produces radiant heat can be more economical to run than a convection panel heater, because radiant heat doesn't rise straight to the ceiling.
-
The accuracy of the thermostat can help save on running cost, because it stops the electric heater from overheating the room and wasting electricity.
-
A panel heater of any kind is usually more efficient than a fan heater, because no electricity is usd for the fan.
