From the conveyors of its factories, shower cabins, heating walls and other heating equipment also descend. However, it was on convectors that the company made a name for itself - these devices are very popular with customers due to energy efficiency and attractive design.

The quality of assembly, too, there are no complaints - it's no accident, because this convector is made in Europe. In short, this is an excellent choice for those who need to heat a room of 10-15 m2.

Nobo C4F 20 XSC

Enough expensive electric convector. But without it, owners of a large room, whose area reaches 25-27 m2, can not do without.

Best portable electric convector

A relatively small model that can easily be moved from one room to another. At the same time, it is able to heat a room of up to 18-20 m2.This power is due to the presence of the micthermic heating element - in full force it starts to work after a few seconds after switching on.

At the same time, it is cheaper than many of its analogues. But it should be remembered that it also consumes more electricity. Also, it is hardly possible to call such a compact model, equipped with stainless steel elements, as reliable as possible.

Which convector to buy

1. Now in stores you can find dozens, and sometimes even hundreds of different convectors. Even our list of the best models turned out to be quite long. Among the listed devices KARMA BETA 5 is allocated. This is the best solution for people who want to save energy, as this convector operates by burning a gas that is cheap in our country.

2. The other models considered today are powered by electricity. The choice of a particular device depends on how you want to use it, and also on the area of ​​the heated room. For example, many models are designed for 15-20 m2.Even the super-cheap Scoole SC HT HM1 1000W is able to cope with such a room. But it is not as durable as the slightly more expensive ECH / AG-1500EF Electrolux, which is also floor standing. No less positive emotions should cause the use of Timberk TEC.PS1 LE 1500 IN, especially if you do not get frustrated by occasional clicking clicks.

3. Well, Noirot Spot E-3 1000 and Nobo C4F 20 XSC are stationary, since they are mounted on the wall. Between them, they differ in power and area of ​​the heated space. More expensive product from Nobo is able to make life comfortable in a room of 27 m2, while the product from Noirot needs to be put in half the size of a large room.
