Product Description
Livingston infrared-Quartz heater.Duraflame Livingston Portable Heater, 10HM2273-W505 Review
Hi, My name is Eric. I have thought about getting one of these infrared heaters for the past couple months now. I live in Southern Indiana, in a well insulated bedford stone home. We have right at 1000 sq. feet. Our main source of heating is an electric heat pump, with baseboard heating as a supplement. I am a Realtor, so I see a lot of homes and I thought if this heater would work for a home it would be mine, because of the size and the great amount of insulation I have. For people that don't know, Bedford stone homes are very solid, and in most cases well insulated. I did my research on these infrared heaters. I have probably read through hundreds of reviews trying to find the best heater. What I found out was that for every heater out there your probably going to find a few bad reviews. People have to understand that every home is different and what works for some might not work for others. Main things you have to take in to consideration is the amount of insulation, celing heights, and amount of sq. feet you are trying to heat. Instead of me telling you all the different sites out there that I went to, I'm just gonna tell you what I found out. Even the more expensive brands like Comfort furnace and Eden pure, who sell over $300. dollars have some very bad reviews. My office has an Eden pure and it heats my particular office which is 15 x 13 with an 8 foot celing and on the second level. It will not heat the entire upstairs, which includes a hallway and three other offices.(less that 1000 sq. feet. I think this brand is way over priced. I came across the Duraflame Quartz heater. I liked how simple it seemed. No high, medium, or low. Just turn it on and set your degrees. Plus it came in at $212. So I went with this one. I ordered it on a thursday night and it came the next friday.(which was 3 days ago. 12/16/11.) I unboxed the heater and it looked great. Big in size but very impressive. I plugged it in and only smelled the burnt plastic smell for 10 minutes. Which every infrared heater on the market will tell you that you might smell this smell with the first few uses. With the first two nights of use, the temps. got into the high 20's. I set my home thermostat to 66 degrees. I set my thermostat on the heater to 74 degrees. My heat pump has not kicked on one time since I turned the heater on. The home thermostat has not dropped below 70 degrees. This unit has absolutely amazed me so far. Every inch of my home is warm. The g/f and I love this heater. I am not too worried about when temps get in the teens and even colder because I can turn this infrared heater up another 15 degrees or so. The unit gets the home to a set temp and then shuts its self off untill it drops a couple degrees below the set temp. I definitely recommend this heater. I could not be more happy with my purchase. As far as energy savings, I can't say yet. But I know it takes less energy to run this heater than it does my heat pump. So I'm sure I will be satisfied when the bill arrives.
