　　Advantages and disadvantages of various heaters

　　Electric heaters commonly include electric film type, PTC ceramic heating, aluminum heat dissipation, electric heating wire, halogen tube heating, oil heater, quartz tube heating, far-infrared heating, etc. Let's take a look at the differences between them, including heating effect, power consumption, service life, etc.

　　Electric heater

　　Also called oil-filled heater. This kind of electric heater is filled with a new type of heat-conducting oil. When the power is turned on, the heat-conducting oil around the electric heating pipe is heated, and then the heat is dissipated along the heat pipe or the fins. When the oil temperature reaches 85°C, the temperature control element will automatically cut off. This kind of electric heater heat transfer oil does not need to be replaced, and has a long service life. The price is generally between 400 and 500 yuan. It is suitable for use in living rooms, bedrooms, aisles and families with the elderly and children, with the advantages of safety, hygiene, dust-free and odorless. The disadvantage is that the heat dissipation is slow and the power consumption is high. There are 7, 9, 10, 12, etc. of oil cooling fins. The power can be adjusted by selecting the number of fins, and the power used is about 1200 watts.

　　Far infrared heater

　　Also called quartz tube heater. Using far-infrared quartz tube heating, the heating element of this electric heater is a heating wire, which is worn in the halogen tube, and the halogen tube plays the role of support, protection and heating. Generally, 2-3 halogen tubes are required, and the power is about 900 to 1200W. The halogen tube heater relies on light to dissipate heat. When heating, it will generate strong visible light, which has the risk of causing fire. The heat transfer method is radiant heat, which has strong penetrating power, but the heat is not easy to diffuse, and the thermal efficiency is low, there is an open flame, and it consumes oxygen. Due to the backward technology, this product is rare in the market, and the price is relatively cheap. Local heating in the home.

　　PTC heater

　　PTC is the abbreviation of a ceramic heating element. It uses a fan to blow air through the PTC electric heating element to force convection, which is the main heat exchange method. It is equipped with a temperature limiter inside, and when the tuyere is blocked by the fan, the power can be cut off by itself. Some are also equipped with a dump switch, which can cut off the power by itself when the heater is dumped. Its output power is 800-1200 watts, the temperature can be adjusted at will, the air supply is soft during work, the temperature rises quickly, and it has an automatic constant temperature function. The PTC components generally have waterproof functions, so they are suitable for use in the bathroom. It is the ideal portable household electric heater at present.

　　In terms of comprehensive cost performance and safety performance, we recommend the use of PTC heaters.
