Propane Heater: Convection or Infrared which is better?
Jan 24, 2009 by justaguy23456
I'm thinking about putting a wall-mounting propane heater in my house. I just started looking at them and found that there are two general types, Convection and Infrared. What are the benefits or disadvantages of each type?
Thanks . . . .
Go with a direct vent unit. These take in air from outside, burn it with the fuel in a sealed type combustion chamber and put the products of combustion back outside. There is no direct communication between the air you breathe in the house and the burner of the heater. These are the safest units out there. Also the efficiency rating on these types of heaters is a lot better than any infrared unit would be. A company called Empire ( www.empirecomfort.com ) makes several excellent units. One of the more economical and popular units is the DV-35, which has a remote thermostat and you can attach an optional blower fan to it.
Electrical convection heater and cancer?
Dec 02, 2008 by lordfkiller
I mostly use an electrical convection heater in my room. Recently, I heard from a friend that radiations produced by the elements are fatal and can cause cancer. Is this correct?
I would say there are millions of these heaters in homes in America, and they do not pose a increased risk of cancer.
You are more likely to get cancer from a handheld radio transmitter (cell phone) than something like a electric heater. A wireless bluetooth, while being a very low power device, is a constant radio transmitter attached to your ear, so not much better. A wired earpiece is much better if you spend a lot of time on the phone.
As for your body, I am beginning to believe that you will always have cancerous cells going through your body, but because your bloodstream is 7.4 PH and cancer can not reproduce at 8.0 PH, and will die in a few hours at 8.5 PH, you can prevent cancer by not being acidic. All cancer patients are acidic, because the cancer creates a more acidic environment for itself.
So drink lots of soft drinks and become a host to cancer. Eat healthier foods that are not acidic, and become a person that can not host cancer cell reproduction. Even this guy was able to survive cancer by killing the cancer cells in his body with 9.5 PH water.
