7How electric heaters work
The Heart of the heating system is a refractory block combining a unique storage material with modern design and technology, creating a highly efficient heating unit. Within each fireclay refractory heat plate is a low wattage heating element, heating the block from the inside. No exposed element to dry the air. The fluted design provides a large surface area in a small space. If you were to pull the fluted steel flat it would be around 4 times the length! It is therefore very efficient at creating radiant heat without the need for huge radiators. The large, rounded flutes ensure airflow through the radiator to create strong convection.
