konvektorien

Konvektorien, often referred to as convection heaters, are a type of electric space heater that operates on the principle of natural convection. They consist of a heating element, typically a resistance wire, enclosed within a metal casing. The casing is designed with vents at the bottom and top. As the air inside the heater is warmed by the heating element, it becomes less dense and rises, escaping through the top vents. Cooler, denser air is drawn in through the bottom vents to replace the rising warm air, creating a continuous cycle of air circulation. This process effectively heats the surrounding room by moving warm air throughout the space.

Konvektorien are generally quiet in operation as they do not rely on fans. They are also relatively safe, as their surfaces do not typically become excessively hot, reducing the risk of burns. Their simple design and ease of use make them a popular choice for supplementary heating in homes and offices. They are often used to provide targeted heat to specific rooms or to take the chill off a space quickly. Some models may include thermostats to regulate room temperature, while others offer simple on/off controls. The efficiency of a konvektori depends on factors such as room size, insulation, and the desired temperature.
