They only heat a specific area and if you are slightly out of this specific area, you or the space will remain cold. Halogen heaters like infrared utilise radiant heat, this means they heat objects rather than the surrounding air.

halogen heater Martin Lewis: How much does it cost to run a halogen heater

You may use this halogen heater to spread warmth throughout an entire room thanks to its wide-angle oscillation capability.The majority of the halogen heaters are less complicated and less time consuming to install than many other types of heating systems. Consumer champion Martin Lewis has recommended halogen heaters as a good source of heat, with the devices being cheap to run, prompting renewed interest in the heating device. Because halogen bulbs do not emit smoke, the heaters produce no carbon monoxide emissions which is the main concern in these times of climate change. Overall, the cheapest electric heater to run are infrared heaters, costing around 26p an hour on average. However, as they produce radiant heat they are not very good at heating larger areas,” he continues.

This heater is appropriate for rooms with strong insulation but does not possess enough power to heat a large space like a garage or utility room. Despite the fact that halogen heaters produce radiant energy, they are not the best choice when it comes to heating spaces in large buildings or areas. For example, in the UK, from October the cost of electricity will be 52p/kWh and the cost of gas will be 15p/kWh.Although it is not limited to the home, it may also be used in a conservatory, garage, outbuilding, mobile home, or caravan. These heaters do not emit any smoke, making them not only environmentally friendly but also free of carbon monoxide poisoning. When a device is on standby, it still receives power from your electricity socket to allow it to continue running at a low level,” he adds. The best halogen heaters offer at least two power levels, allowing for temperature and energy consumption flexibility.
