Features
We’ll look at two different types of features here, Usage and Safety.
Usage Features
This Inverter paraffin heater has:

- An electronic thermostat to monitor room temperature
- 3.2kw of power
- A 24-hour programmable clock
- Digital Temperature Controls
- Low-oil alarm
- Eco Mode: This allows for a minimal temperature to be set. Once the in-room temperature drops below this, the heater will kick in and bring it back to the required temperature. This maximises efficiency and means you use the fuel you need to, to stay comfortable.

Safety Features
The Inverter is packed with safety features, including:
- A gasification heat shield
- ‘Cool to touch’ external frame
- A built-in carbon monoxide alarm

Notes
- This heater has a built-in fan, as such, it is not recommended to be used by those with asthma.
- This heater requires a mains power connection at all times to operate. The heater uses very little electricity, however the mains power is required for the built-in fan to operate correctly.
- Tozane, the recommended paraffin oil to use in this heater, is “virtually odour free”. It does carry a minor odour, however this is generally only noticeable during the start-up phase and when the machine is turned off.
- If you are particularly affected by sharp smells, even in small amounts, this may not be the heater for you.
- As with all heaters, basic safety precautions should be taken.
- e.g. do not point this heater at flammable materials. Do not store the fuel next to this heater, do not use this heater in a non-ventilated area, etc. For more information, read our blogs on heater safety, or contact us directly.
