Two North American companies, GTE and Micromar, have come together to create what The Lifestyle Re- source considers to be the best and safest 1500 watt ceramic heater on the market today— and we looked at 12 competitive heaters. Of all those heaters, we chose Micromar’s Heat Machine Plus to offer to you. GTE spent 18 months of intensive research and development creating, to our knowl- edge, the only ceramic element specifically de- signed for a portable ceramic heater. This US. patented element is manufactured exclusively for Micromar who was the first company to market portable ceramic heaters in North America. They've built on their experience to design this third generation ceramic heater using the finest components they could find. Let’s look at some of the unique features of this remarkable product. SAFETY: This ceramic element operates at a temperature below the ignition point of tissue paper. No fuels, odors, flames or red hot coils — safety grille gives added protection. A “tip-over” switch automatically cycles the heater down if it is turned over. It is designed to run around the clock, is exceptionally safe and great for a child's room. AIRFLOW: The high quality fan is manufactured in West Germany by Papst, who also supplies fans to other top notch companies. The ceramic elements are manufactured using a special pressing process which allows larger holes than any other solid ceramic element— creating an airflow almost twice as much as some others. That means quicker, more even heat distribution. EFFICIENCY: At full capacity of 1500 watts, The Heat Machine Plus puts out 5120 BTU’s per hour. As it reaches the desired temperature you set, electrical consumption drops, thereby reducing your electrical costs. Temperature is controlled by a special thermistor circuit which varies fan speed and eliminates the on-off, hot-cold cycling common to many heaters. VERSATILITY: The Heat Machine Plus goes anywhere, gives instant heat and allows you to lower the heat in other areas of the house and selectively heat those areas you occupy. DURABILITY: The Micromar is built like a tank, with a heavy-gauge metal case, industrial grade components and a meticulous attention to detail. It was laboratory tested for over 100,000 on/off cycles and car- looked at, we believe Micromar’s Heat Machine Plus to be the best value among this year’s ceram- ic heaters, Built-in handle and washable air filter.
