I’m a simple man

Can someone explain how this can reduce your heating bill? I genuinely thought whether it didn’t matter how an element is heated up - it takes the same amount of energy.

  The description is a load of actual lies.
  
  Horseshit for people that take bold writing seriously.
  - Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 28/08/2018 - 21:51
    
    Hi Diji1,
    
    Co2 emission is caused by carbon or fossil fuel. Research show extensive that infrared rays have a zero carbon emission. When saying this we talk directly about the heating technology and way all the components work to avoid this and making it the healthiest form of heating.

      That is bloody brilliant, I just realized my home is near zero emissions. All the CO2 is not really my fault, it's the assholes generating the electricity that I use.

      It really is a ridiculous point - you might just as well point to a coal power station and say 'look, no Co2 - it's not turned on'. Sure these heaters don't burn a fuel on the spot, but every source of power (even renewable, in their production & installation) produces some Co2.
      
      I would just drop that point from your marketing. It makes you sound like snake oil salesmen. Maybe say 'emits no smoke or odours', but even that even that is extremely obvious and still seems like you're grasping for sales points.

  Yes these are as efficient as any other element heater (nearing to 100%). But to give the feel of being warm these style of heaters may achieve that with less energy.
  
  I think a good comparison is an open wood fire to a decent coonara. Being infront of the open wood fire you are going to feel warm, the objects in the room are going to feel warm but the air isn't going to be as warm and areas outside line of sight of the heater aren't going to be very well warmed. A coonara instead circulates air through it to warm the air actually bring up the temperature but if you were in the same room you would actually feel warmer from the open fire.
  
  But also as the description for these heaters says these really more suited to supplemental heat like a bathroom or living area, which I think is actually a good idea. They're only like 350w to 500w so its not an insane amount of energy for some extra comfort.

    Thank You Deelaroo. We have 800 Watt, 1200 Watt and higher range also available for both indoor and outdoor heating. However, the company has decided to start with Smaller units in Australia. The bigger ones will be available starting December 2018.
    - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 08:27
      
      So is a 500 watt going to be enough for a small bathroom in Tasmania (down to zero or less degrees)?
    - Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 29/08/2018 - 09:20
      
      Hi wfdTamar,
      500 Watt will do 8.33 Sqm even if cold outside..
    - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 10:08
      
      @paulwagh:
      'Cold' is relative - and I'm not talking outside, I'm talking under zero inside the room. You can't size heaters equally for the whole country. Ok, I see you're in Devonport, Tas, so you have an idea of what I'm talking about. Hopefully you're right. Would you take them back if I find they don't do the job (provided they're unmarked and resellable)?
    - Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 29/08/2018 - 10:45
      
      @wfdTamar:
      Cold - when we estimate for area coverage on panels, we use 60 watts per sq meter for a traditionally built home, from comment made we can assume that this is a non-insulated home, which means the sq meter wattage would be increased in this case assuming not insulated you would increase the wattage per sq meter to as much as 90 watts per square meaning a 500watt panel in a room with no insulation would only heat 5.5 sq meter room, with a room that has zero degrees then from the comment this would be the maximum a 500watt would heat
    - deelaroo on 01/09/2018 - 19:52
      
      @wfdTamar:
      
      Probably late to reply mate but this style heater (element) would be the best for 0 and under p the ambient temperate doesn't matter. Anything like reverse cycle or other heat pump stuff starts to be rubbish at that point.
    - wfdTamar on 02/09/2018 - 10:02
      
      Yes, but it’s a matter of sizing - how many watts are needed for a given temp for room size. Anyway, I’ll find out. Heat pumps do work below zero if sized correctly and the correct model, but yes obviously work harder the colder outside. Not really appropriate for bathrooms, except to reduce steam.
- wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 09:13
  
  In answer to the first post - The idea is rather than trying to heat the air in a room, you heat the objects (people) by radiant heat (infrared in this case, which is magically better than standard radiators) which would require less energy. This is particularly so in a room that uses extraction fans - bathrooms and kitchens.
  - flashi007 on 29/08/2018 - 11:19
    
    thank you - so would the claim be true?
    
    I'm always interested in trying new things.
    - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 11:22
      
      What claim? Oh, I see reducing your heating bill. Well, to some extent and used in some conditions, yes.
      
      Lets say you're sitting in a large living room and your heating is (worst case) a big electric resistance heater (that's a big fan heater with electric elements inside it). That has to heat all the air in the room just to heat you. With a modern open plan house that can get expensive even with more efficient heat pumps (reverse cycle air conditioning).
      
      So what these FAR heaters do is sit on a wall, or ceiling and radiate heat out to surfaces or people in their path - they don't heat the air. That's why they work outside and in bathrooms where you're exhausting the air usually as fast as it can be heated anyway. The best reason to heat the bathroom air is to minimise steam.
      
      A little fan heater might be at least 2000 watts, 2400 at most. That's quite a bit of power for the amount of heating they can do. A big built in heater (as described above) could be 4000-8000 watts. A heat pump could be 1000-2000 watts (they vary a lot and inverter models run lower once up to heat).
      
      So a FAR running at 500 watts is going to use less and for some applications (like big rooms, or rooms/areas with high air flow) is one of the best options.
      
      A drawback over an 'air heater' type is that the heat is directional - it's only going to heat one side of you, unless you have multiple FAR heaters on different sides. Also not so good if you have more people in the room in different spots. You have to be in front of them to get the heat - because they're radiators.
      
      I reckon a good setup in a bathroom would be one of the mirror types and opposite that a flat panel type on a wall.
      
      BTW - Batchelor or Arts (Environmental Design). Not that you need to study this at uni to find out about it. Supabrudda explained it below too :-)
- [Deactivated] on 29/08/2018 - 09:25
  
  Can someone explain how this can reduce your heating bill?
  
  It's all about watts
  
  Your electricity is billed in kiloWatts/her (kWh)
  * A bar heater is ~2000W (or 2kW), so if you leave it on for an hour it uses 2kW (or 2kWh)
  * These heaters are 400W, so if you leave it on for an hour it uses 0.4kW (or it takes 5hrs to use the same 2kW)
  
  These are line-of-sight heaters and are good if you just want to heat your skin and you are always within it's direct range (like sitting on a chair). They don't heat the air (or the room). Think of it like the sun on a winter's day. If you're in direct sunlight, you'll warm up, but if you step into the shade (or the clouds cover the sun), then it's cold.
  
  They're not so good for indoors, but they're great as outdoor heaters if you're just sitting around (which is why they're popular at cafes).
  
  I hope that makes sense.
  - flashi007 on 29/08/2018 - 11:21
    
    Great post
    
    I have an oil heater which is on all night in my toddlers room during winter in adelaide. From what you are saying, I could get this heater, aim it at her bed and it should save on heating bills?
    - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 12:15
      
      That might heat the outside of the bedding and her face on the side of the FAR heater, but not the air. A big reason to heat winter rooms is to prevent mould and breathing problems. I think you're better with the oil filled heater. As long as the room is insulated well, once up to temperature (and for sleeping it doesn't need to be very high), they don't use a lot of power.
    - [Deactivated] on 29/08/2018 - 13:24
      
      +1
      
      Probably not, as it wouldn't heat through the bedding.
      
      for kids 3 & under, I recommend a sleeping bag (like a Grobag), they keep themselves very warm & can't kick them off. your body is ~37oC, so being able to trap that heat, is all you really need.
      
      What I did on the cold night was use a oil heater and have it on a powerpoint timer, so it was on for 2hrs off for 2hrs, etc (kick it off about 1hr before bedtime). we only did that because one of our used to chuck their blankets, sheets, ect out of the cot. Then we got given the thick winter weight sleeping bags.

Which heaters produce CO2 admissions? Might want to get these removed from your home if they're emitting C02, might want to leave a window open

  Wood fire for one.
  
  A poorly working gas heater or especially an unflued one.
  
  I doubt there’s anyone these days still using a “coal stove” maybe some farmers or something. In the US they have a lot of oil furnaces.
  
  It is a valid selling point of electric heating that it is cleaner and safer for within your home. I think if we can sort out energy and move to cheap renewables all heating should go back to electric.

wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 07:37

I think the price of the curved one indicates how overpriced the flat ones are (though you get a 'plug into the power point' style thermostat with the flat ones).

I have this one:

https://www.andatechdistribution.com.au/products/ionmax-ray-…

and I’m not convinced it’s not the same as a bog standard, old fashioned two bar radiator. I use it in conjunction with my heat pump (reverse AC) just to get the bits down low and it does that on about 300 Watts.

Having pretty much bagged them, I just bought three of the panel ones. I think particularly good for bathrooms which are hard to heat as the extraction fan quickly removes heated air.

Is this thing really IP65 rated? (as the last photo suggests)
- wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 08:10
  
  That only means water resistant, so ok in a bathroom, or maybe beside a pool.
wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 08:13

Just a word of warning - if you look on Yandiya's site they are sold out of most products and have few of these models left, so will they be around to cover the 5 year warranty?

  Yandiya Australia is a new company. However, the "mother" company (Yandiya Technologies) has been around for many years. We certainly intend to be around adding to our stock and our range of stock as we got a really good response :)

Putting this down here so you see it

So is a 500 watt flat panel going to be enough for a small bathroom in Tasmania (down to zero or less degrees)?
- [Deactivated] on 29/08/2018 - 09:05
  
  you're better off getting a heat light for the bathroom, they're the same principle (they only warm your skin, but not the actual room) and you get the added benefit of lighting and exhaust fan too.

    Not a great fan of them as they only heat the top of your bonce(?). Also in my case something that just mounts on the wall is easier as I already have extractor fan and light.
- Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 29/08/2018 - 09:32
  
  Correct
wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 09:08

Wondering how useful the thermostats would be as they presumably work by the air temperature, but the whole principle of FAR is to not heat the air, but surfaces?

As for the $120 value - $39 here

http://www.heat-on.com.au/diy/
Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 29/08/2018 - 09:41

@wfdTamar, Any Thermostat works using air as a guarded. If you don't measure the heat in the room, you cannot tell if its warm.
It has nothing to do with how infrared heat. Has to do with what heat is in the room :)
- wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 09:57
  
  So it's pretty much pointless for these heaters since they don't work by heating the air? Maybe a timer would be more useful? Or a motion sensor to turn them on only when it senses people?
  
  You might get a bit of air heating as a by product of radiantly heating the surfaces, but nowhere near as much as, say, using a heat pump. Maybe you could argue that in a room using both types of heaters, the thermostat will turn off the FAR once the heat pump has got the room to temp?
  - Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 29/08/2018 - 10:58
    
    Hey @wfdTamar,
    
    Thermostat- no matter what type of thermostat is used, they do not and cannot read the temperature of solid objects, all thermostats work on measuring the ambient temperature in a room, which in turn triggers the on/off the effect of a thermostat. Thermostat working with infrared still work on the same principle of reading ambient air, just like this is how you know if a room is warm. So there can be a argument that infrared works as a radiant heat by heating objects, but as air in a room still moves, with people moving this will activate sensors, as thermostat read room temperature, if for instance, you want a 500watt to heat a room of 6sq meter to a temperature of 18 degrees, once the Room temperature reaches a thermostat will turn off heating panel until such times as ROOM temperatures drop below 18degrees
    - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 11:22
      
      Hey, I understand how heater thermostats work, but from what you've written, I'm not sure you do - unless it's just your English failing you.
      
      'no matter what type of thermostat is used, they do not and cannot read the temperature of solid objects, all thermostats work on measuring the ambient temperature in a room, which in turn triggers the on/off the effect of a thermostat.' We agree
      
      'So there can be a argument that infrared works as a radiant heat by heating objects' - there is no argument, infrared is radiant!
      
      'but as air in a room still moves, with people moving this will activate sensors' - er, no people in the room will not activate an ordinary thermostat (unless there are loads and their body heat raises the room temperature enough to trigger it. Or possibly if you have heated your hand by the radiant heat of the FAR, then hold it so close to the thermostat it triggers (would pretty much have to hold it in your hands).
      
      'if for instance, you want a 500watt to heat a room of 6sq meter to a temperature of 18 degrees, once the Room temperature reaches a thermostat will turn off heating panel until such times as ROOM temperatures drop below 18degrees' - Well, yes, that's the basic operation of a thermostat. Did you really think you had to explain that?
      
      None of what you say explains how a thermostat designed to read air temperature will help with a heater designed NOT to heat air :-)
    - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 11:46
      
      Ok, I think you mean that the FAR heats the room's surfaces by radiation, which in turn heats the room's air by convection, then people moving around the room create enough air movement for that heated air to trigger the thermostat. Which is what I said two messages above :-)
      
      In theory yes, that will work, but not very well. Well, we'll see when I try it in my freezing bathroom.
wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 11:55

Ok, since you reckon the thermostat's are worth $120, how's about you ship my order without them and knock $360 off? I don't think they're much use. I'll just use them plugged straight into the power point.

Nope - suddenly they're worthless free addons, not actually $120 - funny that.
- Associatedpaulwagh @ Yandiya Australia on 29/08/2018 - 12:39
  
  $120 is the RRP of the Thermostat and as part of our promotional offers, these are being given away for free only until 31st August.
  plus the products are also heavily discounted as we just started selling in Australia and on Amazon.
  This is already a really good Bargain with Free Delivery :)
  
  Also,
  Installing panel by directly plugging in with no control system will decrease the service life, our like many others work with a control system, in this case, a thermostat, we advise on our website that our panels must be used in conjunction with an approved and tested thermostat. By using an external thermostat, it is far more effective than a heater that has a built-in thermostat that reads the heater temperature and not the room temperature, our thermostat is digital, not mechanical and using the electronics it can read ambient temperatures, this is a tried and tested form of control we have used worldwide.
  - wfdTamar on 29/08/2018 - 12:51
    
    Control system would be my finger on the power point switch, more durable than a cheap thermostat. More effective too as you still haven't explained how this magic air temperature sensing thermostat can work with a radiant heater!
    
    Ok, found this on your own web site which describes what I was explaining above (how hard was that?):
    
    'Far infrared heating systems are designed to use sun-like heat to create energy that is stored in the walls, ceilings, and floors of the home. This pent-up energy is then slowly released from the objects into the room, heating the environment without any heat loss due to ventilation or open doors and windows. Unlike traditional heating systems, infrared heating products provide a completely safe, clean and environmentally friendly way of heating that is also up to 50% more energy efficient. All FAR infrared heating systems are also designed to monitor the heat levels in a room in order to turn the system on and off, using as little energy as possible to comfortably heat your home.'
    
    https://yandiya.com.au/pages/how-fir-heaters-work
    
    That's still going to be a very slow process, not really suitable for a quick 'turn the bathroom heater on 30 mins before use' (in winter) I reckon.
