PRODUCT INFORMATION

Reflective heating technology replicates the sun’s healthy rays, directly warming the object or
person in front of the heater. As the temperature of the heated surface rises, the warming effect is
felt throughout the air and surrounding areas. Reflective heaters are great for open or large rooms,
and actually save you energy by warming objects and not the entire room.

Reflective heating is both safe and healthy- it produces no odors, chemicals, or fumes, and
doesn’t stir up dust. As a safety feature, the heater’s exterior housing does not get as warm
during use to reduce the risk of bums from anyone or anything touching the heater. Remarkably
efficient, our heater uses less power to create the same amount of heat as traditional heaters.
Equipped with safety tip-over switch and overheat auto-off, the NewAir reflective heater is safe
and reliable.
