Natural convection
For even heat distribution
Natural convection operates on a key principle of physics: hot air rises and cold air falls. When cold air at floor level comes into contact with the X-shaped monoblock heating element, it becomes warm. This element offers exceptional heat conductivity. Each Convectair using natural convection heating therefore transfers as much heat possible to the greatest volume of air.
Thanks to a chimney effect, this warm air rises and is projected through the slanted grille slats toward the centre of the room. Air from the entire room follows in a completely silent, gentle flow. The result is a stable, even temperature. Equipped with precise electronic thermostats, natural convection heaters are the solution of choice for rooms where constant, even comfort is required.
Fan-forced heat
Power on demand
Fan-forced models are generally smaller and heat quickly by means of a stronger airflow. The low-thermal-mass heating element directs all the power into a small space. The heat from the element is directly transferred to the fan-driven air. Activated by a timer, these fan units supply heat only when you truly need it or request it.
A consistent room temperature
A Convectair maintains the selected temperature without allowing major fluctuations. Thanks to the electronic thermostat, sensitive to within 1/10 °C (1/5 °F), the room’s occupants can go about their business for as long as they like, in a steadily warm environment without fiddling with the thermostat, oblivious to changes in the outside temperature.
A balanced heating plan
when you purchase or install a heater in a home, you should establish a heat distribution plan to evaluate the heating requirement of each room or area of the home. Installing heat sources at several strategic points prevents the overheating of one single unit as it tries to keep up with demand for the whole room. When the heaters are placed at the right spots around the room, the result is maximum comfort and complete safety.

Different degrees of heating comfort : Shut the doors
When convection heaters on the same floor are not set to the same degree of heating comfort, the door to each room should be closed. In doing so, you’ll prevent overburdening a few units with the task of heating a cool air mass from neighbouring rooms.
Powerful, immediate heat
The bathroom is the one room where a lot of heat is needed for a short time only. That's why all our models for the bathroom— Diva, Impresario 1200, Impresario 1600, Jazz, Piccolo,Samba, Calypso and Soprano—are equipped with a powerful fan that can heat up the room almost instantly.
Intelligent heaters
Convectairs for the bathroom are designed to withstand splashes. The bigger models feature a control panel that is easy to access but safely out of children’s reach. The smaller units and the convection heaters have a panel that can be made tamper-proof. And all the fans (except the one of the Soprano) operate on a timer, so that the heater can’t be left on by mistake.
The highest standards
Convectair heating units
meet Canadian and American safety standards
. In addition, their designs are based on the more stringent performance standards applied in Europe.
Convectair Warranty
- 2 years against all defects
- 5 years on heating elements
Once the guarantee expires, the Convectair technical team is a reliable source of advice and service. Many years after purchase, most Convectair unit can be repaired and refurbished.
