Technical Specification
Heat Retention
The core heat storage bricks are enclosed by insulation panels providing approximately 2.5 times more heat retention than conventional storage heaters.
Core Discharge
Achieved by a low noise centrifugal type fan drawing air through the hot core. The fan is switched by the room thermostat to allow heat output on demand.
Automatic Charging
Charging is regulated by a unique system monitoring both room temperature and the state of the storage core.
Boost Heating
Provided by a supplementary element which will only operate when the useful core heat is exhausted.
