Dyson has announced introducing Dyson Hot fan heater, which it says has been engineered specifically for fast and even room heating.

The manufacturer lists the following product features and benefits:

• Dyson Hot fan heater can be set between 1 °C and 37 °C to heat a room. When it hits the desired temperature, it monitors the room temperature by measuring surrounding air. If a drop is detected, the heater turns back on to maintain the set temperature.
• It has low surface temperatures throughout and no visible heating elements.
• If tipped over, the machine has been engineered to automatically cut out.
• Using patented Air Multiplier technology, air is drawn in through a mixed flow impeller, a combination of the technologies used in turbochargers and jet engines. It is then accelerated through a 2.5 mm aperture (the thickness of a £2 coin) set within the loop amplifier. This creates a jet of hot air, which passes over an airfoil-shaped ramp channelling its direction. Surrounding air is drawn into the airflow, amplifying it six times in a process known as inducement and entrainment.
• The fan heater has temperature controls and an intelligent thermostat. Variable airflow and oscillation is controlled either by remote or on the front of the machine. The remote turns the fan heater on and off, adjusting temperature; airflow rate and controlling oscillation can be done easily from across a room. It is curved and magnetized to store neatly on top of the machine.
• Unlike conventional heaters it has a dual-mode function as a cooling fan and couples high airflow and velocity.
