Frequently Asked Questions About Infrared Heaters
What is the best 1500W wall-mounted infrared heater?
The UFO UK-15 is a strong choice for customers seeking remote control, five adjustable power levels, and a programmable timer. The Econat C-15 is an alternative for shoppers who prefer an adjustable thermostat.
What is the best electric infrared heater for indoor use?
For a fixed installation, consider the UFO UK-15 or Econat C-15. For a portable freestanding design, consider the UFO Micatronic MT-15. Always follow each model's installation and clearance requirements.

Certain models can be used in suitable covered or protected outdoor locations. Always follow the specific heater's moisture-exposure, mounting, and electrical safety requirements.
How much electricity does a 1500W infrared heater consume?
At full power, a 1500W electric heater consumes 1.5 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per hour. Actual consumption depends on the heater's power settings and operating cycle.
