Description

The Dr. Infrared Heater's Advanced Dual Heating System, combining PTC and Quartz Infrared Element, keeps you warm this winter while saving on heating bills. Equipped with a Dual Heating System and High Velocity Low Noise blower, the Dr. Infrared Heater increases the heat distribution and the result is heating your room to a comfortable temperature, fast. The Dr. Infrared Heater is certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) USA and Canada, ensuring the highest safety standard. The Dr. Infrared Heater is perfectly safe around children and pets and only gets warm to the touch. It does not have exposed heating elements that can cause a fire. The Dr. Infrared Heater comes with Energy saving Auto Mode, high and low setting when the mode is set to Auto, the unit will cycle on and off and switch between high or low setting to maintain the desired temperature setting. All Dr. Infrared heaters are engineered and designed in the USA. How is Dr. Heater Different from Other Heaters? Dr. Heater uses infrared heating, which heats objects in the room, instantly making you feel comfortably warm. By heating only the objects in the space--not the air--Dr. Heater provides maximum warmth and energy efficiency. With its state-of-the-art technology that helps the room retain air moisture, Dr. Heater do not dry out your skin like those convection heaters that blast out hot air, stripping the room of moisture. And the best part? It will save you money. Use Dr. Heater instead of your regular heating system, and you could save up to 50% on your next electricity bill. Plus, with its tip-over protection and auto shut-off overheat protection, you can sleep soundly knowing you have got a heater that is superior in safety. Tests Show Dr. Heater heats Faster and Better than Competing Heaters. In a side-by-side test comparison in airtight chambers with the same starting temperature, Dr. Heater heated the same amount of space much faster than a competing heater that has a price tag more than double that of Dr. Heater. Dr. Heater Delivers 60% more heat than other 1500-watt heaters. No magic trick--we just understand heat transfer better. Just because two heaters have the same wattage does not mean they transfer the same amount of heat. Wattage indicates the amount of electricity needed to power the heater--not the amount of heat it can deliver. Heater is the first to feature a dual heating system for maximum heat transfer rate. It combines the energy efficiency of infrared heat with the comfort of convection heat to heat your room fast and comfortably--without hot spots and cold spots. Dr. Heater uses a state-of-the-art 7-inch blower that generates higher pressure and moves larger air volume at a lower speed, without any of the noise of those other heaters on the market. Dr. Infrared Heater has three power Settings: Auto, Low 1000W and High 1500W. The auto energy saving mode allows you to set your desired temperature from 50-86F. It smartly selects between the two settings depending on your room temperature. The thermostat regulates the heater and causes it to cycle on and off to maintain the set temperature. You can also manually set the heater to run on High or Low all the time or with a timer. The heater has to be turned on first in order to use the remote. This a safety provision mandated by the Underwriters Laboratory. So, in order to use the remote, the first step for the user is to press the POWER button on the heater itself. This turns the heater on STANDBY. Then, pressing the POWER button on the remote will turn the heater on. The heater can't be turned on if the unit is not on STANDBY.

  • Really nice little heater! My cats love it!
Style: Original
I wasn't sure if I was going to like an infrared heater. This is the first one I have ever had but I am really impressed with how efficient it is! We have a heat pump so heating the house when it drops below about 34 degrees becomes extremely costly. I bought this just to supplement on chilly nights. The case doesn't get hot to the touch, just warm enough that my cats enjoy laying on it! It's extremely quiet, which is nice because I don't have to turn the volume on the television up when it's running. It even comes with a cute little remote control. The thermostat seems to work pretty well, it cuts on and off when I set it to hold a certain temperature and it gets pretty close. I also LOVE that it's on wheels. It's a sturdy little heater and I appreciate that I can just scoot it around as needed. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another one. ... show more

  • Works great!
Style: Original
Absolutely love the design and the relative smallness of the heater but the perfect amount of power in producing heat. I recently had a homebirth, and the heater heated up our room exactly as we needed for baby. It's not loud at all, and the noise that it does produce isn't annoying. With the very cute wood appearance, it blends into any sort of decor and doesn't stand out like a sore thumb. The auto shut off works great and is a very dependable contraption. ... show more

  • Great little heater!
Style: Original
This is the second one of these i have purchased the first unit almost a year ago it has worked flawlessly. With multiple fan settings and a thermostat, I can adjust it based on my use. Turn it on high to get the room warmed up fast or set it to low and let it gradually heat up. On high it might be annoying watching tv, but with on low it is acceptably quiet. It feels like a quality product. While it is light enough, I could carry it from room to room, the wheels provide excellent mobility. Overall, I have found it to be a quality product for a very reasonable price. I would not hesitate to recommend or buy again. ... show more

  • Great unit, iffy remote
Style: Original
Unit is amazing, however the remote is not built properly for batteries, we were able to get it to work though! But i can tell it’s life will be shorter due to this fault. Fast heat, it’s heated a large basement to a steady temp.

  • Great product!
Style: Original
SInce reviews led me to purchase this I wanted to leave my honest review of the product. I use this in my home office for those cold mornings. I wasn’t happy with the small Honeywell I had, First of all the look of this unit is nice, It operates wonderfully quickly heats up my office and I feel completely safe with it. I leave it on the eco setting seems to work great. The remote stays on my desk and easily operated this. I simply use it to turn it on as it remember your last setting. No bad initial odors like some others. The model I got was the original Dr Heater and for the price I couldn’t beat it with anything I saw at my local Lowe’s. Look forward to may years of use. ... show more

  • Finally one that works.
Style: Original
I rent a house and the heating in this house sucks. I spent hundreds of dollars on different heaters. This is the first one that actually works. I have about a medium size living room. Soon as I took it out the box and turned it on, it heated up my living room right away. My wife couldn’t believe it. It’s easy to program and it’s straight to the point. Also it’s really quiet. Far as the size, I thought this heater was bigger. But it’s actually small and very light weight compared to my others. I definitely would recommend this. ... show more

  • Very efficient!!
Style: Original
Bought 2 of these to save money on our regular heating cost. Last year 2023 we paid $300.00 and $400.00 heating our home. This year 2024 our costs went down considerably! So far we've paid 45.00 X2 for the same two months that cost us 700.00. Our electricity bill only went up $70.00-$80.00 extra!! This is by far the most efficient way to heat our home! I had to buy two, because our house has 2467 sqft. We love how quiet it is, it's on casters for easy moving around, it's durable, remote control, there is no smell or orders, and ease of use is awesome. We loved it so much, we bought one for our sons house as well and he loves it!! ... show more

  • Second year now, going strong, so well made
Style: Original
Bought this heater in January of 2024. Just started using it again for a second winter and it is working flawlessly and is toasty warm. I use it in my sun room (less than 200 sq ft) as it gets a bit chilly in there in winter even with hvac and I just needed a bit of supplemental heat overnight. This little heater is perfect and is still working just as new. I park myself and my morning coffee near it every am and it's handsome glow keeps me quite comfortable. It has several different modes but I keep it on regular auto. It turns itself on and off automatically with the built in thermostat so I keep it on 68 degrees all the time. It is super safe. The cord is nice and long so I can keep it in the middle of the room without worry I will trip. The remote is super easy to use. And unlike almost all other heaters, it is actually stylish. When not in use, I just unplug it and roll it back into the corner on it's very effective casters and it looks like a little piece of furniture. It stayed in the sun room all last year with no worries. No need to box it up and pack it away as it is pretty and the case is made of a nice stained wood. I just now bought another one of these lovelies for my husband's office. The best little space heater we have ever owned. ... show more
