Fan Forced Heaters

A fan forced heater is a form of convection heat that includes an electric fan to speed up the airflow. This reduces the thermal resistance between the heating element and the surroundings faster than passive convection, allowing heat to be transferred more quickly. They operate with considerable noise caused by the fan. This type of heater is a good choice for quick heating.
