Vornado® DVTH vs. Winter!

Punxsutawney Phil said we’d have six more weeks of winter—and it looks like he was right. Even the warmest areas of the country are being hit by late seasonal cold fronts, freezing rain, and snow flurries.

And it’s not just the weather—today’s economic climate has everyone pinching pennies where they can, and turning down the thermostat is a quick fix. Alternate heating solutions range from jumping jacks, push-ups, and dancing to wearing polar bear scarves. A simpler, and economical, solution is using an electric space heater.

Electric space heaters are the perfect solution when the main heating system is inadequate or when central heating is too costly to operate at full blast. They boost the temperature of the room you’re in without overheating your entire home. The U.S. Department of Energy has recently stated that using an electric space heater in one room is much more efficient than heating an entire home with a gas furnace or heating unit.

When using an electric space heater, safety should always be considered. When buying and installing an electric space heater, follow these general safety guidelines:

• Electric space heaters should be plugged directly into the wall outlet. If an extension cord is necessary, use a heavy-duty cord of 14-gauge wire or larger.

• Select a heater of the proper size for the room you are wanting to heat. Never purchase oversized heaters.

• For portable electric heaters, buy a unit with a tip-over safety switch, which automatically shuts off the heater if the unit is tipped over.

There are a lot of adequate options out there, but very few separate themselves from the competition like Vornado’s Digital Vortex Heater DVTH. The Vornado Digital Vortex Heater DVTH is different from traditional space heaters. It doesn’t just heat the space directly in front of it; the DVTH uses Vornado’s signature Vortex Technology to quietly create swirling, deep-penetrating currents that disburse heat evenly throughout the room. A Vornado electric heater can warm the entire room in minutes!

The Vornado DVTH features Auto-Adjusting Climate Control to eliminate annoying hot and cold cycles and save energy. Simply set the temperature with the easy-to-use digital push button controls and walk away! The DVTH will begin to raise the air of the whole room to the selected setting. The heater continuously and precisely regulates the heat output and fan speed. Safety features include automatic tip-over protection, cool-touch housing, and tight grill spirals to keep even the smallest fingers out of harm’s way.
