Warmex - India's Best Room Heater Review

Warmex PTC Fan Room Heater PTC 99 N

It's been very cold in india this year so I finally bought a room heater after reviewing all the available heater. I actually wanted to buy an Indian make rather than an imported chinese one for a best price. Warmex room heater was a good deal for the price of Rupees 1900/-, which can heat the room at the maximum rate of 2000W(~). 
The product features/functionality and quality as descirbed below.

Cool/Warm/Hot wind selection as show:

• Cool is fan running without the heater ON as shown on the right know with a ' fan ' symbol.
• Warm is fan runnning along with heater @ 1000W as shown ' I ' symbol. And this is the ideal heat recomemded for most of the rooms in the winter season.
• Hot is fan runnning along withe heater @ 200W as shown ' II ' symbol. At this setting its really hot, and this setting is recomenmed only during first 1 hour to get the room to normal temperature.

The rotary switch used to change this 3 different modes is well a standard one as shown that shall lost longer.

Temperature control : Its controlled by a thermostat which just work fine but not very sensitive as its mounted inside the box as shown below.

The thermostat is connected to the know on the box which is show on the left side that can be rotated to controll the temperature.

Fan speed selection mode: The fan runs at constant speed. There is no such option to adjust its speed.

70° oscillation for even heating:  The Body oscillates whien this option is slected and recomended for the first one hour when its operating at 2000W to spread the heat evenly. The osillation of the body is controlled by a standrad synchronous motor which is attached on the base of the box which rotates it from the base plate.

Built in safety switch: This switch is safety switch which is under the base plate of the complete unit, which prevent it from powering ON, if the unit not place correctly and switched OFF the power to the unit if it falls by anykind of push. The switch is located to the right of the product label under the unit.

Indicator lamp: Indicates when the power is switched ON to the heater and fan which is located on the front panel above the grill in red.

Easy carry handle: Well designed handle to carry the heater anyware u like to.

The room gets heated well with 2000W mode in few minutes. At 1000W the room is warmer whole night and keeps us cozy with a sound sleep.

The fan is made a wind sound which is bearable, but recomemded to keep atleast far of 5-8ft to have a sound sleep during the nights. This fan sound cannot be reduced as it cannot control fan speed.

Some suggestions before you operate this heater:

1. Ensure the you have 16A power plug socket to connect this heater.
2. Place the heater away from hanging clothes, wood, plastics ( away from bed, curtain, woden furniture, TV).
3. Turn on the heater @ 2000 W before 30 min and make it to 1000W while using the room.
4. Turn the thermostat to a desired level clockwise until the unit turns on and reduce it anitclockwise a little to ensure correct operation of switching at desired level, which shall save the power consumption.

Update me with ur comments to add.  

Wish you all a very happy, colorful, prosperous & a successful New Year 2012…!!
