Dr Infrared Heater Portable Space Heater, 1500-Watt
Quiet and Efficient Blower
Dr. Heater’s blower is so quiet, you’ll hardly notice it’s on. While competing heaters use a 3-inch fan, Dr. Heater uses a state-of-the-art 7-inch blower that generates higher pressure and moves larger air volume at a lower speed, without any of the noise of those other heaters on the market.
Product description
- Dr. Heater Delivers 60% more heat than other 1500-watt heaters. How?
- It’s no magic trick--we just understand heat transfer better. Just because two heaters have the same wattage does not mean they transfer the same amount of heat. Wattage indicates the amount of electricity needed to power the heater--not the amount of heat it can deliver.Dr.Infrared Heater’s advanced heating system enables greater heat production without using any more power with a high-efficiency blower that delivers an average of 250°F at 3.5m/s to your room versus competing heaters that can do only 155°F at 2.2m/s. That’s how Dr. Heater can deliver 60% more heat. So while Dr. Heater and competing heaters both use 1500 watts of electricity, those competing heaters were not built with high-efficiency blowers to deliver heat in the same effective way as Dr. Heater.Dual Heating System Provides Maximum Comfort and Fastest Heat Transfer Rate.Dr. Heater is the first to feature a dual heating system for maximum heat transfer rate. It combines the energy efficiency of infrared heat with the comfort of convection heat to heat your room fast and comfortably--without hot spots and cold spots.

Save Big On Your Heating Bills
Dr. Infrared Heater, newly engineered and designed in the US, is one of the best alternative and most efficient heating sources for you this winter. The Dr. Infrared Heater's Advanced Dual Heating System, combining PTC and Quartz Infrared Element, keeps you warm this winter while saving on heating bills. Equipped with a Dual Heating System and High Velocity Low Noise blower, the Dr Infrared Heater increases the heat distribution and transfer rate and the result is heating your room to a comfortable temperature, fast. The Dr. Infrared Heater is certified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) USA and Canada, ensuring the highest safety standard. The Dr. Infrared Heater is perfectly safe around children and pets and only gets warm to the touch. It does not have exposed heating elements that can cause a fire. The Dr. Infrared Heater comes with Energy saving Auto Mode, high and low setting when the mode is set to Auto, the unit will cycle on and off and switch between high or low setting to maintain the desired temperature setting. All Dr. Infrared heaters are engineered and designed in the USA.
How is Dr. Heater Different From Other Heaters?
Dr. Heater uses infrared heating, which heats objects in the room, instantly making you feel comfortably warm. Other heaters simply heat the air in the room; the problem with this is hot air rises to the ceiling, creating drafts that leave you feeling hot in one moment and cold in the next. By heating only the objects in the space--not the air--Dr. Heater provides maximum warmth and energy efficiency. With its state-of-the-art technology that helps the room retain air moisture, Dr. Heater won’t dry out your skin like those convection heaters that blast out hot air, stripping the room of moisture. And the best part? It will save you money. Use Dr. Heater instead of your regular heating system, and you could save up to 50% on your next electricity bill. Plus, with its tip-over protection and auto shut-off overheat protection, you can sleep soundly knowing you’ve got a heater that’s superior in safety. With its unparalleled heating capabilities, safety design, energy efficiency, and quietness, Dr. Infrared Heater is simply the best choice for your home heating needs.
Tests Show Dr. Heater Heats Faster and Better Than Competing Heaters
In a side-by-side test comparison in airtight chambers with the same starting temperature, Dr. Heater heated the same amount of space much faster than a competing heater that has a price tag more than double that of Dr. Heater’s.

Auto Power Settings | 1000W or 1500W
Dr. Infrared Heater has three power Settings: Auto, Low 1000W and High 1500W. The auto energy saving mode allows you to set your desired temperature from 50-86F. It smartly selects between the two settings depending on your room temperature.The thermostat regulates the heater and causes it to cycle on and off to maintain the set temperature. The 1500-watt setting is desirable under most situations since it heats up the room the fastest to the desired temperature and then cycles off. You can also manually set the heater to run on High or Low all the time or with a timer.
Note: The heater has to be turned on first in order to use the remote. This a safety provision mandated by the Underwriters Laboratory. So, in order to use the remote, the first step for the user is to press the POWER button on the heater itself. This turns the heater on STANDBY. Then, pressing the POWER button on the remote will turn the heater on. The heater can't be turned on if the unit is not on STANDBY
Long Lifetime with 80,000 Hours of Operation
Rest assured, you can use Dr. Heater winter after winter for years. It’s built to last up to 80,000 hours in operation.
