- Most likely, you remember from your childhood oil heaters . Now they can also be hung on the wall and included in the network. These models are good in that they will not dry the air more than conventional central heating. In addition, the heating is strong enough, but it remains safe. It will serve an oil model for a long time, it will work silently. But it heats the room for a long time, and because of the weight, it can not be hung on all partitions.
- Convector models , in fact, simply distill cold air through themselves and make it hot. According to the laws of physics, warm air rises to the ceiling, the cold one goes down, which gives a constant circulation and rapid heating of the room. It is important to find not so much the appropriate size of the battery, how much its capacity. A wall mounted electric heater of this type with a thermostat allows you to adjust the operation and create comfortable conditions for yourself. There are also additional bonuses in the form of an air humidifier, a timer and an air ionizer.
- Ceramic models are incredibly similar to the part of the air conditioner, or rather, its split system. It will heat up the room quickly, but it will be noisy. Many wall models have all the attributes of the air conditioner from the console to the set of additional features. If desired, you can use this type without heating as a fan in the summer.
- Infrared models are fundamentally different from all previous ones,
since they heat not the air, but the objects themselves. The electric wall panel heater is much more economical and more convenient to use. The air remains moist, but furniture and all surrounding objects will become warm and the room will be comfortable.

But the service life is almost unlimited, and apparently it looks very presentable. - Wall-mounted electrical paintings-heaters refer to so-called film models. It is also an infrared heating system, but now it has also become the decoration of the room. When working, heating the surface of the painting is approximately 60 ° C, which makes it safe.
