1 Why an infrared heater in the bathroom?

The bathroom is a room with special requirements: rapid heat, high humidity and often little space. An infrared heater uses infrared C radiation to generate a cozy, sun-like warmth that acts directly on the body, walls and objects. This ensures an immediate feeling of well-being and prevents mold growth, as the walls remain dry.

Advantages at a glance:

  • Rapid heating of the room
  • Spot heat when you need it
  • Mold prevention through dry surfaces
  • Low heat loss during ventilation
