A heater usually appears in an apartment in the middle of winter, when February or Epiphany frosts begin.

The market offers a fairly large number of different types of heaters, and this confuses potential buyers.

Today the most popular are oil radiators, convectors, fan heaters, infrared heaters and inverter air conditioners.

Let's look into this issue in more detail.

  1. Inverter. Capable of both cooling and heating the room. Expensive.
  2. Oil. Considered the safest choice, but takes a long time to heat the room.
  3. Convector. It is similar to an oil heater, but it heats up faster and is more expensive.
  4. Infrared. Economical, but it heats up objects around it rather than the air. Its radiation is considered harmful to the eyes.
  5. Fan heater. It's inexpensive, heats well, but it's noisy and burns oxygen.
