The Amazon description mentions "Ceramic heater core for even and efficient heat distribution". Does this have a built in heater?

The Fluval c2 power filter advertises that it has a ceramic heater core... unless its built in somewhere inside, its not visable period. so with that said, i still had my glass tube style heater and continue to use it with the power filter as i doubt that something i can not even see will heat the 20 gallon long tank enough for that fish i have.

No. If you want temp in your tank to be higher than room temp, use an additional heater.

Nope. The line "Ceramic heater core for even and efficient heat distribution" does not belong with this product. It is just a very good filter.

No it isn't ceramic. I will have to get back to you re BTUs. It is very effective for a small room

Yes, it does. Further, I have placed this unit on my under-desk shelf (at my feet) and have experienced no heating of the shelf itself. I rate this unit as an excellent personal space heater (although, I don't like the way you turn it off -- too easy to modify setting!) But that is a minor annoyance.

No. It is a griddle that is regulated with an unnumbered knob.Llower heat to higher heat is subjective, judging as you grill. The best dinner parties I have had revolve around the tabletop grill. Cooks all meats fairly quickly on the highest setting..

Infrared space heaters for the home emit long-wave infrared radiation, which strikes a solid nearby object and converts that radiation into heat. Infrared is not absorbed by the air through which it travels. With infrared heating, the warmth is directed and concentrated where it is really needed, so infrared heaters are better at targeted or focused heating. Infrared heaters are energy efficient, have no moving parts, heat very quickly, are silent, and are unaffected by drafts. If you are sitting in one spot for a length of time, an infrared heater aimed in your direction will be a good choice Convection heaters use electricity to warm a metal coil, a quartz tube, or a ceramic core. The air near the heater is warmed in the process and, using either natural or fan-induced convection currents, circulated throughout the room. Quartz and ceramic elements are reputed to reach higher temperatures with less input energy than their metal-coil counterparts and are thus said to be more efficient. They work well for providing overall warmth in a (small) closed space. In all models, the warmed air circulates into the room, raising the ambient temperature to the point established by the thermostat, and then shutting off until the temperature drops. If you are moving around in a room, or if there are several people in the room, a quartz or ceramic convection heater will be a good choice. They are both safe heating systems

the one I have, as far as I know, only has the mineral heat plate that needs to be replaced depending on use. I would recommend buying an extra plate so that you have it ready when needed. Although, we have not had to replace ours yet, and we have had it for over a year. Again, it all depends on usage.

No it does not have a heating element but when it runs for a few minutes the heat from the motor running will seem like it does.

Hi, it's not a ceramic heater. It's all plastic. I use it for limited runs to take the chill off my bedroom, and never leave it running for more than 20 minutes. The plug does get hot at the wall socket, which worries me and caused me to put the time limit on run periods.

Yes it comes with a heater and the packaging is besides the white outside package the inside individual contents are brown.

Most of the efficiency is lost with the surrounding (lack of insulation), it has very little to do with the heater itself. With its effective air circulation, this heater is as efficient as an electric heater can be. That said, this is a beautifully put together, quiet and effective space heater.

This heater is ul listed. Ive bought several of these heaters and I use them to heat outbuildings. They wodrk great and do the job. Very reliable source of heat and safe.

No idea, I never owned such thermostat, just noticed that the Infrared Sauna we had, emmits hube amt of EMF, THEN AN OLDER MODEL WITH CERAMIC HEATER DIDNTDEPENDS ON CHEAP MANUFACURER

It doesn't. I think it's all hype and a huge waste of money. A small electric heater worked better than this $400 unit and was quieter.

Unfortunately, no. This would be a great little heater except for the cost of running it. I'm afraid to use it since it cost me over $100 extra in electricity and I only used it about three hours a day for a week.

I have no idea. I ordered the two heaters as gifts: one for my father and the other one for my younger sister. I did not even see the boxes they came in.
