Reliable electric convectors from Electrolux

Cons convectors Electrolux

We note right away that the main reason why people buy these convectors is the low cost. Of course, everyone wants to save their money. But, is it worth it when the integrity of housing and human life is at stake? We believe that no, because electric heating should be safe, comfortable, economical and efficient. Whether Electrolux is suitable is a big question.

Initially, we note that during the manufacture of Electrolux convectors, cheap materials and components are used. In addition, everything is made "in lapping". For example, a cable without a power reserve, it is constantly heated. Do you think other components meet the stated requirements?

Let's single out a few serious disadvantages of Electrolux convectors:

The air is very dry. Therefore, it is almost impossible to use them as the main heating for the house, because you will not be comfortable in the room.
Inaccurate thermostat. The thermostat is a completely different story here, it makes no sense to talk about its accuracy, because it simply does not exist. Of course, you can choose the optimal temperature, but this will have to be done constantly. For example, if the temperature outside drops by about 5 degrees, you will have to make adjustments to the thermostat - this is very inconvenient.
Approximately 40% of convectors fail after the first year of use. Does it make sense to buy a new heater every year? Remember that the miser pays twice, and there is no common sense to save on electric heating.
During his work, he makes a strong sound. This is seriously annoying, especially if it is to be used as a permanent source of heat in the house.
Case is overheating

With careless movement, you can even get burned. But, for an adult, this is not scary, but a child can be seriously harmed.

Specifications

The body of the equipment has an aerodynamic shape, which provides an effective trajectory for the convection of air flows. Thanks to the design of the case, the technical parameters of the device are improved. The unit has a convenient electronic unit with an LED display. Thanks to him, the device is controlled. The panel shows the temperature parameters, the selected power mode, the timer.

Electric convectors from Electrolux have a built-in highly sensitive thermostat, which allows you to set the optimal mode in the room with high accuracy, program the on / off time of the device. Electric convectors operate at half and full power. To reduce the load on the power grid, an economical mode is used, which also saves electricity.

A distinctive feature of the models of this brand is the system of complex filtration of incoming air flows. The heater is supplied with the main and additional filters:

• anti-dust;
• carbonic;
• Nano filter;
• kahetin.

Cleaning products improve the characteristics of the air in the room, protect the heating element from dust.

In addition, models from Electrolux are equipped with the following additional options:

1. AUTO RESTART. If the electricity was cut off for a short time, when turned on, the device automatically switches to operating mode while maintaining the temperature and power.
2. "Overheat protection". After the temperature has reached the upper limit, the circuit breaker is activated. The heating element will stop working.
3. "Child Protection Lock"
4. "Antifreeze". The convector, when this function is selected, maintains a temperature of 5C.
5. "Moisture Protection"

The principle of operation of the electric convector

The Electrolux electric convector operates on the principle of natural circulation of air masses with different temperatures (for more details, see the article on how an electric convector works). It is known from physics that cold air settles at the bottom, as it has more weight. Therefore, the lower inlets are located in the devices. Air flows through them to the heating element and, having heated up, exit through other openings. The heating element can be of 3 types:

1. Monolithic.The body of the heater is a one-piece cast system with fins. Due to its design, the convector does not make unnecessary sounds during operation.
2. Needle. The heating element is made in the form of a dielectric plate. A chromium-nickel heating thread coated with an insulating varnish is installed on it.
3. tubular. The heating element is made in the form of a steel tube into which nichrome threads are installed. The heating element is filled with heat-conducting backfill as an insulator. For better convection and heat transfer, aluminum fins are installed on the tube.

The devices mainly use monolithic and tubular heating elements.

Overview of Electrolux brand heaters

Heating devices can operate on different types of fuel, the most affordable and do not require complex installation are electric. A convector is a household appliance that provides heating of a metal work surface, and after it the surrounding space. Today, there are a large number of different models that have their own characteristics and technologies, one of them is the Electrolux Air Gate system, which allows you to clean the air at the same time as heating it. Let's review convectors manufactured by Electrolux, using this principle of operation.

The Electrolux Air Gate air purification system consists of four filters, each of which performs its own function:

• Anti-static - for cleaning large and medium-sized dust due to static stress on the surface.
• Carbonic. It filters oxygen, eliminating tobacco smoke and other chemical compounds.
• Catechin. Performs air disinfection, killing microorganisms, which, together with the smallest dust, settle on special antistatic nets.The active component is catechins - these are polyphenolic compounds of plant origin, by their nature have a strong antioxidant effect.
• Nano-silver. A grid containing active silver on the surface, with very small cells, in addition to neutralizing bacteria, also saturates the air with ions.

According to reviews, Electrolux convectors with the Air Gate system need periodic replacement of carbon, catechin and Nano-silver filters, which must be done once every four months.

Overview of device modifications

Electrolux Air Gate series consists of AG1 and AG2 heaters with mechanical (MF) and electronic (EF, E) type of regulation.

• AG1. A range of models equipped with a standard heating surface made using the patented X-duos technology. In appearance, this is a long part, in profile looking like the letter X, on its walls there are radiator fins that increase heat transfer.
• AG2. Electrolux electric heaters, characterized by the SX-duos system, in which the heating element is increased by 10%.
• MF. Mechanical type of control of the device, which allows for temperature adjustment.
• EF, E - devices with electrical power control and a small display. Models of the E series do not have a molded front, but a lattice panel that increases the power of infrared heating.

Differences between models in terms of characteristics and cost

Each buyer, before choosing an Electrolux convector, pays attention to the main parameters of the device. Let's consider them in more detail:

• Power. Measured in watts. On average, it is in the range of 1-2.5 kW. Most devices have several levels of its adjustment. This characteristic affects the maximum area of ​​the heated space.
• Dimensions.Based on the needs of consumers, firms produce convectors of various configurations. On the market there are models with a height of only 15-20 cm and a length of up to 2.5 meters.
• Control. It can be mechanical, electronic and intellectual. The latter allows you to program the convector to maintain climate regimes during the day or week.
• Safety. The equipment has different protection classes and systems that provide power off in critical situations (fall, overheating).

Leonid Yaroshevich, St. Petersburg.

“I hung up an electric convector of the ECH / AG series with integrated air purification in the hall, the filters completely neutralize unpleasant odors and retain dust, the room is warm and comfortable at any time of the year. The cost is quite affordable, there were no failures in a year and a half. The minuses include the issued click when cooling down, the sound is quite noticeable.

George, Moscow.

“I was looking for a cheap but reliable portable electric heater, my friends advised me to buy an Electrolux Rapid 1000. In principle, this model suits me in everything, but it would be better if I chose a convector with an electronic rather than a mechanical thermostat, in my opinion, it would be more economical. The cost suited me, I think it is quite justified.

Alexander, Yekaterinburg.

“I bought a convector manufactured by Electrolux six months ago, I can highlight both pluses and minuses. The first few days after switching on, there was an unpleasant smell, sometimes it clicks loudly. But the device copes with the task of additional heating even in the 50% power mode, in severe frosts I simply turn it on to the maximum. There are no other extraneous noises, the design is modern.”
