The VH10 1,500 Watt Electric Fan Compact Heater is one of Vornado's next generation of whole room heaters—the modern styling on the outside hints at an enhanced design within to maintain a balanced room temperature. While the heat output is enough to keep everyone in the room comfortable, the heater's exterior remains cool to the touch. Using specially tuned airflow called “Vortex Action”, the heater creates a twisting current of air that flows fast, warm, and gentle circulating the heat throughout the entire room using walls and ceilings as pathways. Dial in your comfort with the simple-to-use controls to select between the 2 heat settings and to regulate the power consumption between low and high. The heater allows you to heat your room and not the whole house.
