Buying guides

Prepare these details before comparing heaters:

• The space you want to heat and whether it is indoors or outdoors.
• Room dimensions, insulation and how often the space is used.
• Your available power supply and any installation restrictions.
• The manufacturer’s stated use, clearances and ventilation requirements.
• The controls, heat settings and noise level you need.

Ask us to help check a model against your intended use before ordering.

Think about the room and installation as well as the appliance:

• Room dimensions, ceiling height and how much sun the space receives.
• Whether you need a portable appliance or a fixed installation.
• Where any exhaust, pipework or drainage required by the model will go.
• Power requirements, operating noise and the controls you need.
• What is included in the purchase and what installation work is required.

Check the exact product specification and speak to us if you are unsure about installation.

Gather the information that will help you compare drying equipment:

• Whether you need help with everyday humidity, laundry or a commercial drying job.
• The size of the area and its typical temperature.
• The model’s stated operating range and extraction test conditions.
• Water-tank capacity, drainage options and how often it needs attention.
• Noise, portability, controls and filter maintenance.

Tell us about your space and what you need to dry so we can help check the options.

Begin with the problem you are trying to address:

• Whether your priority is air movement, extraction, filtration or humidity control.
• The space, room dimensions and how it is used.
• The airflow or coverage stated for the model.
• Installation requirements, noise and available controls.
• Replacement filters, consumables and regular maintenance.

Check the product’s intended purpose and maintenance instructions before buying.
