What Is a Wall Heater?

Wall heaters are a popular choice for homeowners because they save space and provide efficient heating. These compact units are installed directly on the wall, freeing up valuable floor space. They deliver targeted warmth right where you need it. 

Wall heaters are ideal for individual rooms or smaller spaces. They offer quick heating and precise temperature control, making them an energy-efficient alternative to central heating systems.

How Do Wall Heaters Work?

Most wall heaters use electricity or natural gas to generate heat. Electric models use a heating element that warms up and radiates heat into the room. Gas models use a burner to heat a metal heat exchanger, and a fan circulates the warm air. Many models include a thermostat to help you maintain a consistent and comfortable temperature.

Where Is the Best Place to Put a Wall Heater?

Choosing the right spot for your wall heater can make a big difference in how effectively it warms your space. 

Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Room size and layout: A small room may only need one heater, while a larger or more open space might benefit from multiple units or a different heating solution altogether. Consider how the heat will flow throughout the room and if any architectural features might affect it.
  • Furniture placement: Avoid placing a heater behind large furniture, as this can block airflow and reduce efficiency. You’ll also want to make sure it’s not in a location where people might bump into it.
  • Windows and doors: Placing a heater under a window can help combat drafts and cold spots. However, you’ll want to avoid placing it too close to doors, as this can cause heat to escape.
  • Electrical outlets and gas lines: Electric wall heaters need to be near an outlet. In contrast, gas heaters require a gas line connection. Our technicians will carefully assess your home’s electrical and gas systems to determine the safest and most effective placement.

Ultimately, the best location for your wall heater depends on your unique needs and preferences. Our team at Hassler Heating and Air Conditioning can help you assess your space and recommend the ideal placement for optimal comfort and energy efficiency.

What Is a Direct Vent Heater?

A direct vent heater is a type of heating system that draws air for combustion from outside your home and vents exhaust gases directly back outside. 

This sealed combustion system offers several advantages over traditional heaters:

  • Improved safety: By eliminating the need for a chimney or flue, direct vent heaters reduce the risk of carbon monoxide entering your home. This makes them a safer choice for your family and your peace of mind.
  • Increased efficiency: Direct vent heaters are highly efficient, as they don’t lose heat through a chimney. This can lead to lower energy bills and a reduced environmental impact.
  • Versatile installation: Because they don’t require a chimney, direct vent heaters offer greater flexibility in terms of placement. They can be installed almost anywhere in your home, making them a great option for rooms with limited space.

If you’re looking for a safe, efficient, and versatile heating solution for your East Bay home, a direct vent heater may be the perfect choice. 

Are Direct Vent Heaters Efficient?

Yes, direct vent heaters are known for their high efficiency. 

Here’s why:

  • Sealed combustion: The sealed combustion system prevents heat loss that can occur with traditional vented heaters. By drawing combustion air from outside and expelling exhaust gases directly outside, they minimize wasted heat.
  • No heat loss through the chimney: Traditional heaters that rely on a chimney or flue lose a significant amount of heat through the venting process. Direct vent heaters avoid this loss, as more of the heat generated is used to warm your home.

If you’re looking for a heating solution that’s both effective and environmentally conscious, a direct vent heater is an excellent option to consider.

Wall Furnaces for Your Home

Direct-vent wall furnaces are a great way to maximize your living space while enjoying efficient and comfortable heating. Because they’re installed directly on an outside wall, they take up little space inside your home.

These furnaces use a unique system that draws fresh air from the outside for combustion and then expels exhaust gases back outside through a concentric vent. This sealed system keeps the air inside your home fresh and clean while the heater provides consistent warmth.

Direct-vent wall furnaces are especially effective in rooms with cold spots that your central heating system struggles to address. They minimize heat loss and distribute warmth evenly, delivering consistent comfort throughout the home.

Experience the comfort of consistent warmth that comes with a direct-vent wall furnace. Equipped with advanced technology, these units can quickly adjust to temperature fluctuations and prevent those uncomfortable fluctuations in temperature that can make a room feel drafty or unevenly heated.

Say goodbye to chilly corners and hello to a cozy living space where you can relax and enjoy consistent comfort, no matter the weather outside.
