Product Overview
Soleus Air is proud to provide the latest technology in whole-room heating. Micathermic heating combines the efficiency of convection heating with the instant heat of radiant heating, resulting in an energy-saving solution suited for many heating needs. This dual technology panel releases twice the heating energy of most conventional panels, while remaining clean, quiet and energy-wise. In addition to simply creating heat efficiently, this heater is also equipped with an "ECO" function which automatically reduces the energy usage by 1/3 when the desired room temperature is reached. The unit thermostat acts just like your home thermostat, automatically turning the panel on and off to maintain the target temperature, keeping warm while never over-heating a room. Anti-freeze mode automatically turns on the unit when the surrounding temperature dips down to 41 degrees. Freeze protection with minimal heating costs.

Great Heater - Quiet, Effective, and Efficient
Reviewed by: Kathleen on 2008-10-23
This electric heater works better than I had hoped. I live alone and, in order to save money on gas this winter (I have a gas furnace), I decided to look into electric heaters. After reading about the micathermic heater technology, I ordered this one for my bedroom. The bedroom is upstairs where there are no heat ducts! I have to hope enough heat drifts up the stairs to keep me warm. I also have an office upstairs where I work during the day, and I wanted to be able to move the electric heater between the two rooms with little effort. This heater is so easy to move and is so lightweight and easy to pick up (has a 'handle'). Also, it heats a room up very quickly (I close the door to the room). And, based on my calculations, it costs me about 9 cents per hour to run. So during the day it heats my office where I do my work, and at night it heats my bedroom. Problem solved! And what a savings! I can keep my thermostat down at night. I was so impressed with the Soleus product that I have ordered another Soleus heater for my living room. I sit there in the evenings to read, watch TV, etc. It is an open room to the rest of the downstairs, so I ordered another model/type of heater that gives direct heat to a small area within a big room and is low wattage. I am very pleased with it all. And my furnace can be set at 60 degrees while I am toasty warm and saving money.
