SUPERIOR TO OIL HEATERS - While oil heaters have their merits, micathermic heaters, also known as mica panel heaters, offer superior performance in many areas. These electric panel heaters provide more efficient heat distribution, are safer, lighter, and more economical, delivering a healthier heating experience compared to traditional oil-filled heaters.
SAFE TO USE - Micathermic heaters like the HV102 model surpass both convection heaters and oil-filled radiators in safety. The naturally insulating mica panels help prevent electric shocks and reduce the risk of electrical fires. The heating element is covered by a protective mesh that remains cooler to the touch, preventing burns. Additionally, this heater features an overheat protection function and automatically shuts off if tipped over, ensuring safe operation.
ADJUSTABLE HEAT SETTINGS - The HV102 electric heater offers two programmable heat settings: 1.5kW, and 2.5kW, allowing you to adjust the heat output to your preference. It also includes a programmable thermostat to maintain your desired room temperature. For quick heating, the 2.5kW setting is ideal, while the 1.5kW setting provides steady warmth when rapid heating isn't necessary.
EASY TO MOVE AND COOL TO TOUCH - Designed with convenience in mind, these micathermic panel heaters are lightweight, equipped with caster wheels and integrated handles, making them easy to move from room to room. The heater remains cool to the touch ensuring safety. A cable management handle on the front helps keep the cord tidy when not in use. This electric heater also comes with a remote control and timer, adding convenience and flexibility to your heating experience.
SPECIFICATIONS - Electric panel heater HV102 colour: black. Dimensions - 71 x 23 x 65cm (28x9x25.5in). Weight: 6.1kg. Cable length - 150cm (59in). Convection heater Power: 2500W (2.5kW) and a voltage of 220-240V ~ 60Hz. It is fitted with a British Standard (BS) approved 3-pin plug. Please note that the heater should not be connected to an extension lead or multi-plug adapter, to prevent fires.. Always plug it directly into a mains socket for safe operation.
The Duronic HV102 heater uses micathermic technology to permeate a consistent blanket of heat into the surrounding room warming up everything and everyone around it.
Micathermic heaters are designed differently to convector and gas heaters due to the mica panel components inside. These panels do an incredible job at conducting heat and, thanks to their natural insulating properties, they make the HV102 one of the safest heaters to own.
A major benefit to having a mica heater like the HV102 is that it doesn’t just blow heat in one direction alone, instead, it exudes heat in every direction from the heater warming up the room faster and more efficiently. From the moment it is switched on, this heater takes only 1 minute to heat up to full temperature and thereby starts to warm the surrounding space very quickly.
Mica panel heaters are also more hygienic than fan heaters because they do not blow out air. With convection heaters, the air is blown around the room spreading dust, allergens and bacteria – all of which can cause irritation or be harmful to the respiratory system. In contrast, micathermic heaters keep the air humidified and do not spread harmful particles. The HV102 is, therefore, a better choice for anyone who suffers from allergies or a respiratory condition.
HV102 FEATURES:
Remote Control & Timer Function: The HV102 heater comes with a handy remote so that you can control it from a distance. It also has a timer function enabling you to set a time for the heater to switch itself off.
Anti-Frost Function: Selecting the snowflake on the thermostat dial allows the heater to keep the room above freezing point.
2 Heat Settings & Thermostat Control: Customise your heater to achieve the level of heat that is right for you. The power level can be set by using the arrow buttons. The thermostat is adjustable from 5°-36°c to suit your personal preference. When the thermostat detects that the room’s temperature is within +/-2°c of your setting, it will switch off the radiator to save energy. Then when it detects the temperature has fallen it will automatically switch back on and heat the room up again.
Silent Running: The HV102 has no moving parts (i.e. a motor or fan) which means it runs silently, therefore it is ideal for bedrooms and around the home.
Easy to move: To move simply lift the heater using the handle, wheel across the floor and set down again in the safe knowledge the feet will prevent it rolling any further. Alternatively, you can use the cool-to-touch handles to lift the lightweight heater and carry it into another room.
Protective Insulation: The mica panels act as an electrical insulator which protect from electric shocks and electrical fires.
Protective Grills: Safety is our priority. Protective mesh grills cover the mica panels and heating element. These make the unit cooler to touch to prevent accidentally burning yourself and is an especially useful safeguard around children and pets.
Over-heat Protection: If the heater is covered or begins to overheat in an unsafe way, the built-in safety device will sense when something is wrong and automatically shut down.
Tip-Over Protection: If the heater is accidentally knocked over or laid on its side, it will automatically switch off.
Cable Management System: Incorporated on the front of the radiator is a hook for you to wind up the cord when not in use, thereby keeping things tidy and making the heater easier to move if you need to.
All of our mica panel heaters are oil-free which means they are naturally much safer to use than oil-filled radiators.
They are also the superior option in comparison to convector heaters due to the added energy efficiency and health benefits the mica panels promote.
This radiator has a cable management hook on the front of the heater which allows you to store the wire tidily when not in use.
It's fitted with a 1.5m power cable with British Standard (BS) approved plugs.
The HV102 heater has an adjustable digital thermostat which allows you to control the temperature of the room. It can be set to anywhere from 5°-36°c and also has an anti-frost function.
It has adjustable heat settings that enable you to select 2 different levels of heat: 1.5kW / 2.5kW.
The HV102 electric heater is lightweight and easy to move.
In addition to this it has wheels on one end, so provides an alternative way to relocate it if you cannot lift it for any reason.
The compact size of this mica heater makes it ideal for any home or office.
The feet are wider to ensure the heater has optimal stability.
The HV102 comes with a remote control.
Do not ever cover your heater with anything as this can create a fire risk. Always ensure that there is nothing covering the top or positioned too close to the sides of the heater.
Duronic has 6 different micathermic heaters with various power capabilities and different features on each. The HV051 is a mini heater with 1500W power which is sufficient enough for small rooms or for having two in a larger room. The HV101 and HV102 are both more powerful at 2500W so can heat up a larger space more quickly. The HV220 is a compromise between them all, with sufficient power of 2000W.
PLEASE NOTE: We advise users to not plug the heater into an extension lead or multi-plug power adapter as the heater is too powerful for it. Using an extension lead or adapter with this heater is a fire hazard and may cause damage to the heater or the user. Always plug a heater directly into a mains socket.
