Frequently Asked Questions

The dehumidifier is the device designed to reduce the amount of moisture in the air of the room - house. The dehumidifier helps us keep humidity levels in the room under control so that the air is more "comfortable" and hygienic, and the natural – visible signs of moisture, such as mold on the walls or condensation on the windows, are limited or disappear. 

Some houses may have moisture problems only at certain times of the year, such as in the spring, when there is a lot of water runoff from the ground. Other houses present a high humidity problem throughout the year. A typical example is the humidity that occurs in northern walls and wardrobes, the condensation of moisture [drops of water] on the windows, the appearance of mold in the bath, in areas that are not properly heated or ventilated. There are also times when moisture is a problem only in a room or area of the house that is either not properly insulated or there are construction defects. 

Dealing with high humidity is not just an aesthetic problem. It is mainly the prerequisite for the maintenance of the house. But the main thing is, and it should be emphasized, that maintaining the right level of humidity in your home, is decisive for the quality of life of the family at home. While humidity at normal levels can be beneficial, high or excessive humidity could be dangerous to your health. It is a typical example, nowadays, when the heating of the house during the winter months is very incomplete or non-existent for many households, children to catch cold often and repeatedly, creating painful conditions and weakening of the body, which can lead to even more serious health problems. See only the frequency that children are absent from school due to a cold. High humidity and the presence of mold can be the cause of allergies! 

The dehumidifier is therefore the device that removes from the house excess moisture and keeps it at normal, healthy levels. The use of a dehumidifier preserves the house, creates the conditions for a healthy living environment, prevents diseases due to high humidity such as allergies, asthma, etc. Finally, without a doubt the use of a dehumidifier at home reduces heating costs by at least 20%.

Humidity is something we hear every day in the weather reports. Humidity is the cause of the suffocating feeling we have some days of summer. 

Humidity can be measured in several ways, with relative humidity being the most common. To understand relative humidity, it is useful to first understand the absolute humidity. 

Absolute humidity is the mass of water vapor divided by the mass of dry air in a volume of air at a given temperature. The warmer the air, the more water it can contain.

Relative humidity is the ratio of the current absolute humidity to the highest possible absolute humidity (which depends on the current air temperature). A reading of 100 percent relative humidity means that the air is completely saturated with water vapor and cannot hold extra water vapor, creating the possibility of rain. This does not mean that the relative humidity must be 100 percent in order for it to rain – it should be 100 percent where clouds form, but the relative humidity near the ground could be much less. 

People are very sensitive to moisture as the skin depends on the air to get rid of moisture. The process of sweating (sweating) is your body's effort to cool off and maintain its current temperature. If the air is 100% relative humidity, sweat will not evaporate into the air. Therefore, we feel much warmer than the actual temperature – given temperature when the relative humidity is high. If the relative humidity is low, we can feel much cooler than the actual temperature, because our sweat evaporates easily, cooling our body. For example, if the air temperature is 24 degrees Celsius and the relative humidity is 0%, the air temperature gives the feeling to our body as if it were 21°C. If the air temperature is 24°C and the relative humidity is 100%, we feel as if it is 27°C outside. 

People tend to feel more comfortable at a relative humidity of about 55%. A dehumidifier will help keep the internal humidity at a comfortable level.

What a dehumidifier does is to reduce the relative humidity of the air by removing the relative humidity from the air.

Whether you will have moisture condensation or otherwise condensation of water vapor (blur and drops of water in the windows) in the window is a relationship between the three factors: 

  1. Air temperature
  2. The temperature of the glass surface
  3. The relative humidity of the room  

The dehumidifier can only directly affect one of them (it could affect to some extent the air temperature depending on the size of the room) . Let's say for example that the room temperature is 20°C and the relative humidity is 55%. As long as the temperature on the window remains at 12°C, no condensation will form. But if the temperature of the surface of the glass drops below 12°C you will have exiled condensation, liquefaction of air. It is simple, the dehumidifier can keep the humidity of the room constant, but the winter - cold conditions make the glass colder at night and thus this creates condensation.

Condensation of moisture in Windows and Balcony Door

Condensation in the interior glass, dripping of water in the window or the presence of what looks like a fog or blur on the glass surface of windows or windows are typical indications that there is too much moisture in the room. The accumulation of moisture on the windowsill of a window, will result in rotting wooden inkill enclosures, the paint of the wall will peel off, and finally moisture will allow the development of mold. Mold, blackheads appear at the bottom of the window, or the balcony door.

Immediately turn off any humidifier that works and in the future, degrade the unit to reduce the amount of moisture outlet. When too much humidor outlet is the cause, the humidity level can correct itself simply by stopping using a humidifier and opening a window to add air circulation to the room.

Other things that can cause moisture to accumulate on the windows are the moisture present in the construction materials of the house, such as improper waterproofing of the wall drywall or moisture present in the cement. The climate outside the house can also cause moisture problems, such as when it rains for several days or the area where you live has a high humidity factor. A dehumidifier will effectively remove moisture from the house and restore moisture inside the house to the right levels. Remember to transfer the dehumidifier to all areas affected by excess moisture, and when the problem in them has moderated or disappeared to place the dehumidifier in a central place in the house, with the doors of rooms and cabinets open.

Mold spots on the ceiling or in corners of the walls

μούχλα στο ταβάνι

Because the steam rises, moisture problems in the bathroom are often found on ceilings or on the corners of the walls. Bathrooms that do not have effective ventilation to carry steam and moisture out of the house, most of the time have some problems with mold. Mold can develop on a wall, ceiling, under/around the toilet or behind the bath or on their perimeter shower.A leak in the toilet or plumbing can also cause moisture problems. Excess moisture can cause increased mold, which can in turn cause serious health problems. You don't have to see it mold in order to affect your health as long as it is just present somewhere.Other areas of the house that are often affected by trapped moisture are closets, basement, garages and storage areas.
The use of a dehumidifier in these areas can help. The dehumidifier will reduce the amount of damage caused by moisture, but the cause of the problem can not be ignored and the root of the problem should be addressed. 

Mold spots in the bath

The recommended average relative humidity varies between 50% and 55%. This level of relative humidity provides the best comfort for your family, prevents the manifestation of allergies, frequent colds, bone pain, while at the same time helping to protect and maintain the house, such as plasterboard, walls and peeling of paint, wooden furniture, clothes in closets and other objects or materials that are prone to the harmful effects of excess moisture.

We use a dehumidifier when the relative humidity in the house is superior to normal, i.e. more than 55%. You can check the room humidity with a good quality hygrometer. If, of course, the humidity in the house is excessive, then the signs of mold and the relative smell that accompanies it will be obvious.

This is indicated only on sunny summer days, but in winter the opening of the windows will simply lead to the loss of heat of the house. That's a waste of money. When it does not rain the result will be more moisture will enter the house.

When using a dehumidifier to check the relative humidity in your home you should NOT have the windows of the house open! On the one hand, the dehumidifier will not stop working, trying to dehumidify the space outside the house. Secondly, our goal is to keep the outside moisture out of the house. In the event that we want to ventilate the house in the morning, we can do it for a while, first extinguishing the dehumidifier. It's as if you had in operation the heating with open windows. When we are done with the ventilation of the house, then we put the dehumidifier back into operation.

It is common to observe a pronounced moisture problem in a particular room, usually in the northern part of the house. In this case, first place the dehumidifier in this room [generally in the room that presents a severe moisture problem and close the door]. When the moisture problem disappears, place the dehumidifier in some central part of the house, a head ladder if it is a maisonette or a hallway that connects the living room with the bedrooms.You should know that moisture has a tendency to move naturally to the dry places, that is, the dehumidifier. We recommend leaving all the doors of the rooms open, as well as the sheets from the wardrobes, so that the dehumidifier can pull moisture from all over the house. At the base of the square meters of the house you need to carefully choose the appropriate dehumidifier.

  • Do not use the device without the air filter.
  • To avoid problems and for the better operation of the dehumidifier clean the filter (with a vacuum cleaner and not with water) at least every other week.
  • Do not use the device with a faulty cable or plug if it malfunctions or has fallen or has been damaged.
  • Return it to an authorized service for inspection and repair.
  • The device should always be in an upright position to avoid damage.
  • Place the device on a flat and stable surface.
  • Check the voltage in order to be the correct one.
  • Use the dehumidifier for the appropriate temperature range that is built to operate.
  • Make sure that the air inlet and outlet is not blocked or covered.
  • Do not place the device too close to curtains or other objects – minimum 50 cm.
  • When using the dehumidifier to dry clothes, keep the clothes at a safe distance from the device so that water does not fall inside.
  • Never put anything on top of the device and do not cover it with any hardware while in operation.
  • The device is intended for domestic and "light" office use ONLY and not for commercial, industrial or outdoor use.
  • Do not immerse the device, plug or cable in water or other liquid.
  • Never unplug the plug without first having switched off the device with the button off, as this can damage the device.
  • Always unplug the device when it's not running or when you move it.  
  • Grab the plug and pull from the outlet. Never pull the cable.
  • Do not remove the water container when the Dehumidifier is in operation, as water can be poured.
  • If possible avoid the use of an extension, as it can overheat and create a fire hazard.
  • Use only good quality and in good condition extension.
  • Always empty the water tank to drain when you want to store the device.
  • Close supervision is necessary when the device is in use or is close to children and pets.
  • Do not pass the wire under carpets.
  • Place the cable so that there is no risk of someone stumbling. 
  • To store the dehumidifier empty the water container. Let the container and dehumidifier dry completely, this can take a day or two.
  • Store the device in a dust-free space, away from the sun, and preferably covered with nylon.
  • To repair the device, please contact an authorized service.

When you first use the dehumidifier in a space, it will work harder – to reduce the relative 'room humidity' to the desired one' you have chosen (e.g. 55%). It makes perfect sense that "this is the moment" when it will produce the most water and the emptying of the container will need to be more frequent. As the room becomes drier the Dehumidifier collects less water and the filling of the container is slower. It is also logical that when the desired "relative 'humidity' is achieved, the Dehumidifier will stop collecting water." Therefore, the collection of less water is not an indication that the yield of the dehumidifier has decreased. It is a result of the fact that the Dehumidifier maintains at constant levels the humidity of the space, without having to work long hours, and therefore with less power consumption.

In order to keep the dehumidifier in good condition, its performance is maximum and to extend its service life, all you have to do is check the filter often and clean it according to the user manual. If the dehumidifier works on a permanent basis, the filter can be clogged with dust and particles.

• The filter should be cleaned every two weeks.
• Never use the device without the air filter!
• Tip: place the dehumidifier on a piece of furniture with a fixed and flat surface and not on the floor.

All Kullhaus dehumidifiers have sensors and smooth operation fuses. In the event that either the water tank of the dehumidifier is not properly installed or filled during operation, then automatically the device will stop working, makes a characteristic noise and an indicator light turns on to alert you.

It is possible to connect the dehumidifier with a tube for continuous flow of water into the drain. Just connect the tube to the special socket of the dehumidifier and make sure that the other end of the pipe ends up in the drain. The tube should be flowing so that the water flows down to the drain. 

Therefore, in order for there to be water flow, the dehumidifier should be placed at a relative height from the floor, in order for the tube to have a downward position.

 Also make sure that the tube is not blocked, so that the water flows freely down. Otherwise, the water will not flow from the dehumidifier to the drain, but will accumulate in the water tank. 


Kullhaus dehumidifiers include a tube in the package.

In Kullhaus Qualis dehumidifiers, the water tank and the lid have been designed in such a way that in the first place they are easy to use in everyday life. In many dehumidifiers you will see that it is difficult to get out the water container or gnaw in the attempt to take it out, as a result of which water or splashes are poured on the floor. At Kullhaus we have solved this problem with the easy placement and removal of the water container.

Secondly, it is very important that the water container is completely watertight and of very good quality. We have given special attention to the quality of the plastic and the perfect fit that have a lid and a water container.

If the device will not be used for a long time, follow these steps: Remove the plug from the outlet and empty the water tank. Let the container and dehumidifier dry thoroughly, this can take a couple of days.Clean the air filter with a vacuum cleaner and not with water.Store the device in a dust-free place, away from the sun, and preferably covered with nylon.

When the relative humidity target you choose has been reached, the Kullhaus dehumidifiers will only operate the fan 3 minutes to check that the relative humidity is at desired levels. Then their operation will stop for 17 minutes. Then the fan will be switched on for 2 minutes in order to check the relative room humidity. If the relative humidity has increased above the predetermined level, the dehumidifiers kullhaus begin to work again. If the relative humidity remains below the predetermined level then the Kullhaus dehumidifiers will be put to sleep for an additional 17 minutes.

Desiccant dehumidifiers Kullhaus and Meaco

When using the dehumidifier for the first time, and then, you may periodically notice a smell coming out of the dehumidifier. This comes from the dehumidifying material Zeolite desiccant and is not an indication that the dehumidifier is defective, or that it is harmful to humans or pets. The smell arises from the fact that Zeolite absorbs smells from things like cigarettes, cosmetics, hairspray, building materials and new furniture, and then when the desiccant is heated the smell is released into the room. The smell is reminiscent of something burning or like a sour smell. It is normal, does not last long and is not an indication of a faulty device. When storing the dehumidifier put it in its box for protection from dust.

When the selected relative humidity has been reached the dehumidifier will stop the dehumidification of the air, but the fan will work. When this happens the device will stop collecting water, it is normal.The fan continues to work in order to get a sample from the air so that the dehumidifier knows when to restart the water collection, but if the relative humidity is below the desired one then there is no need to collect water and of course no water will appear in the container. When the relative humidity again exceeds the desired limits, the dehumidifier will be switched on automatically.

The fan cools the inner radiator, it is normal. The fan will work for 3 minutes from the moment you press the Power button to turn off the device. Wait for the fan to stop working to move the dehumidifier.

-> never unplug the desiccant dehumidifier while the fan is running [cool down mode]

-> never use the desiccant dehumidifier with an outlet timer. It will shut down the fan and damage the zeolite wheel.

Choosing the Right Dehumidifier

Choose the right dehumidifier based on the square of the space you need to cover. Two factors determine how many square meters a dehumidifier covers. So many liters of water can be collected by the compressor per day [12L or 20L] and the airflow, i.e. the power of the fan in how much volume of air it can move, and therefore the device can dehumidify.

Kulhaus Alpha Q 13L - covers up tp 80 sq.m.

Kulhaus Qualis 12L ION - covers up to 80 sq.m.

Kulhaus Qualis 20L ION - covers up to 130 sq.m..

Kulhaus Qualis 25L ION - covers up to 150 sq.m.

Faq

The heaters are thin electric heaters of direct efficiency panels, which operate through the natural flow of air (convection). The cold air located in the lower layers of the room enters from the bottom of the heater (natural attraction), is heated by the special resistance of the body and is forcibly extracted from the upper part of the heater, without drying the air. Heaters do not have a ventilator and should in no way be confused with common air heaters. The heaters do not blow hot air (they do not have a ventilator) unlike air heaters and air conditioners! On the contrary, they give rise to a sweet heat that diffuses into the space harmoniously through the natural flow of air.

The Nobo and Atlantic heaters have thermal resistance (cold resistance) and are shielded by aluminum! It more effectively diffuses the heat in the space, does not glow and therefore does not burn the oxygen of the atmosphere.


Nobo and Atlantic heaters are now known to the Greek public as a reliable, economical, efficient and hygienic heating system, established for decades in Europe and scandinavian countries.

Natural convection


Nobo & Atlantic electric heaters operate through the natural flow of air (convection hence convector). The cold air located in the lower layers of the room enters from the bottom of the heaters (natural attraction), is heated by the special resistance of the body and is forcibly extracted from the upper part of the heaters , without drying the air. The thermal resistance of the convector is armored by aluminum! It does not glow and therefore does not burn the oxygen of the atmosphere. Nobo and Atlantic heaters Nobo Norway is the largest Scandinavian firm specializing in heaters since 1947. Atlantic France is the largest European company when it comes to electric heating. Nobo and Atlantic heaters ensure the immediate and quality heating of the premises, as they maintain the atmosphere hygienic without drying it out (important for children, the elderly and people with respiratory problems and asthma).

Because there is a lot of confusion in the market today, and clearly a lot of misinformation, you should be aware of at least the following basics:
Heating panels are any electric heaters that is thin in thickness and placed on the wall. The heaters are therefore heating panels, which have the possibility of placement on the floor with special support treads.

There is no heater that makes hasty diffusion of heat (or has any such option to operate with a fan)! It is simple: the heater works through the natural flow of air, for this reason it is a healthy heating (it does not dry the atmosphere). heater and fireworker are two opposite modes of operation!

In no case should heater be confused with heaters! These are two completely different styles, which are explained below.

Also, heaters and heaters have nothing to do with infrared radiators and the magnetic waves they emit!

Finally, we often hear or read "how much the heaters consumes". It is impossible to make such generalizations and simplifications. Which brand of heater are we referring to? Doesn't the build quality count? If it has an electronic thermostat? The quality of the heating resistance? Is the required power of the convector calculated correctly based on area and ceiling height? Are the insulations of the house and the location taken into account?

Does the heater have quality certificates that ensure its safe operation? Does it have thermal safety that protects against overheating? Does it have a room temperature sensor? Does the thermostat have a space or simply the temperature of the heater?

Is the thermostat of the heater electronic or mechanical? An electric heaster with a mechanical thermostat will consume at least 30% more than another with an electronic thermostat. To understand if a thermostat is a mechanical (old technology that is, operating with bimetallic plates) fluctuate the temperature from the thermostat and when the heater turns on or off you will hear a click.Is it really silent in operation?What guarantee does it have? Does it have spare parts and service?

All electric heaters NOBØ & ATLANTIC are single-phase, 230V. They are of double insulation (Classe II), degree of protection IP24 and are placed fearlessly in the bathroom.

Heatrer power consumption in euro

Power of the heater required to heat a space, at the base of the area, ceiling height, insulation, geographical location.
Price kilowatt-hour.
P.O  Periodic operation of a heater. From the moment (point in time) that the heater touches the desired room temperature that we have chosen from the electronic space thermostat.
H     Hours of heating body operation.
S.P.  Room heating starting point (room temperature before heating it).

Heater consumption: To calculate the cost of consumption of the Nobo and Atlantic heaters we need to calculate the cost at the Starting Point (consumption cost until the radiator "catches" the desired temperature) and the Operating cost (maintenance cost of the desired temperature).

Heating starting point = W x P x S.P

Operating cost = W x P x H

Room heating of 12 sq.m. for 4 hours (Example of consumption)

A 1500W heater is required
Ceiling height 2,80 – 3 meters
Good insulation (aluminum frames, double glazing, masonry insulation)

Starting point 
It takes 30 minutes to achieve the desired temperature
(20Cº is considered a hygienic room temperature)

Operating costs
3.5 hours with consumption of 60% of the rated power, i.e. 0.9kW
During this time the heater will turn on and off automatically and quietly, maintaining with accuracy the desired temperature

Price kilowatt-hour (Kw/h)0,10€
(reduced or nightly PPC tariffs are not counted)

(1.5 x 0.11 x 0.5) + (1.5 x 0.11 x 0.6 x 3.5) = €0.43 for 4 hours

• Do not place the heaters in places where air currents may be created

 
• Do not leave the heaters in operation during the hours you are away from home (if the time of absence is short, then just lower the desired room temperature). In any case, the nobø and ATLANTIC heaters have immediate performance and will heat your space instantly.

 
• The power of the heaters should be the correct one. For example, for a room up to 13 sq. m. place a 1500W radiator. If you choose less power, the heater will work much more, and in cases where the power is extremely disproportionate to the space and its insulation, it will never turn off!.


• The use of dehumidifiers reduces consumption in heating by 15-20%. You will notice how much more difficult it is to heat a house with high relative humidity (for example, when a house remains closed for a long time) and how much more expensive it is.  You will see a huge difference in the immediacy of heating the house, but also in the cost of consumption if your house maintains the right levels of relative humidity. Important: desiccant dehumidifiers Kullhaus Meaco blow warm air, about 10C° warmer than room temperature.

Are you still dealing with products of dubious quality and performance, technologically outdated?

  • Does the heater have quality certificates that ensure its safe operation?
  • Does it have thermal safety that protects against overheating?
  • Does it have a room temperature sensor?
  • Is the thermostat space or just the temperature of the heater?
  • Is the thermostat of the heater electronic or mechanical? An electric radiator with a mechanical thermostat will consume at least 30% more than another with an electronic thermostat.To understand whether a thermostat is a mechanical (of old technology that is, operating with bimetallic plates) fluctuate the temperature from the thermostat and when the heater turns on or off you will hear a click.
  • Is it really silent in operation?
  • What guarantee does it have? Does it have spare parts and service?

The products of NOBØ and ATLANTIC have cold resistance, shielded in aluminum in order not to be burned. By extension, it does not burn the oxygen of the atmosphere. It should also be emphasized that heaters do not have ventilators! They don't blow hot air. They produce heat that diffuses harmoniously in the space. Studies show that one of the most important sources of indoor pollution are considered to be "heating devices, such as stoves, heaters, gas boilers, ovens, mangalia and fireplaces, in which wood, oil, natural gas, kerosene, etc., and various lighting devices (oil or oil lamps) are burned, depending on their type. The exhaust gases of all the above, when not extracted (removed), result in the emission of significant amounts of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter.

In order for a heater to warm satisfactorily and immediately a space must meet certain conditions (see Technical Information). The calculation – choice of the correct strength of a heater is not an arbitrary decision. It is determined by the area of the space, the height of the ceiling, the peculiarities it presents (e.g. internal staircase, etc.), the insulation, the geographical location, etc. If these rules are followed then we will be sure that we will have immediate, correct and economical heating. If, for example, a space requires a power of 2000W and we place a heater of 1000W then this will neither heat satisfactorily and mainly will never turn off, consuming endlessly current without any real result! In conclusion, the NOBØ and ATLANTIC heaters do not have power levels because that would be completely useless! They have a room temperature sensor and an electronic room thermostat, with which we determine exactly the room temperature we want.

Each heater needs a separate line from the panel (except for 750W & 1000W which is low power). In the opposite case that two bodies are placed in a common line, then the security will fall. In other words, the Amper (A) of each safety in the panel determines the maximum power (W) that it can withstand. If it exceeds this maximum limit then the safety falls!

If, for example, we have a 10A fuse on our electrical panel, then this fuse can withstand up to 2200W. Let us now assume that from this safety leaves a cable which ends in two sockets. So these are non-independent sockets with a common line. In this case we can place a radiator in one socket and in the other some device that does not pull a lot of current, e.g. TV, radio, computer, portatif, etc.

It depends on how large (area) is the house we want to heat. It depends in other words on the number of heaters that will work at the same time. If the house is small then the single-phase (1F) current is sufficient. For a larger house where the single-phase clock of PPC with 35A (maximum power 7.700W) is not sufficient then there are the following solutions:

Increase the power of existing electricity supply (the safety Amper (A) of the single-phase clock of PPC). Conversion to a three-phase supply. If none of the above solutions are possible, then it is suggested to rotate the heaters, given the direct performance of the bodies. For example, during the day we operate the bodies in the living room and kitchen, while in the evening we turn them off and light those of the bedrooms. 

In the case when the house is large enough, the three-phase supply is mandatory. Also, the sum of the strength of the bodies should be calculated in order to determine what collaterals (A) the three-phase (3F) should have. The study of the floor plan of your home undertaken by our company will fully inform you about the electrical needs required.

Nobo tradition to heating

Since 1938, NOBØ, based in Stjørdal Norway, has been manufacturing quality electric heaters. It is one of the largest manufacturers of convectors in Europe, with exports to 20 countries worldwide and is the largest manufacturer of thermal transmitters in Norway. Norway Nobo radiators were presented in Greece by our company about 30 years ago and immediately their reputation was identified with the quality of construction and reliable operation.

  • The first electric heater was launched by NOBØ in 1938. Since then, NOBØ has become synonymous with quality, innovation and reliability.
  • Traditionally the largest Norwegian manufacturer of electric heaters. Norwegian Nobo heaters have always been the top sellers in the Nordic countries and the top selling Norwegian heaters worldwide. To date, C4F series heaters alone have sold over 3 million units worldwide.
  • You will not find cheap or expensive series of heaters, electronic or mechanical room thermostats at Norway NOBØ heaters. Norway Nobo heaters always have only an electronic precision room thermostat with a displacement of ± 0.05C °, cold resistance shielded in aluminum, perfect finish, electrostatic powder coating (the world-famous Norwegian paint Jotun is used).
  • When you buy a NOBØ heater, you know you are buying a high quality product, manufactured and tested at the Stjørdal factory in Norway. NOBØ remains a constant guarantee of quality and reliability.
  • Only 5.5 cm thick!

Completely silent operation

Heaters of other companies make noise when the resistance starts to heat up and/or when it is heated and starts to cool. Nobo heaters make sure that they work completely silently.

 
• Built-in electronic space thermostat (deviation ± 0,05C°)

Norway Nobo heaters have the new NCU 2Te precision space electronic thermostat integrated, with a deviation of ±0.05C°! Immediate reaction to changes in room temperature, quiet operation, constant maintenance of the selected temperature, even greater energy savings.


• Sensor
 
• Instantaneous response of the thermostat to room temperature

The high quality of the Nobo thermostat minimizes any deviation between the selected temperature and the room temperature, resulting in maximum energy savings.

 
• Lower consumption, maximum efficiency, direct heating

Nobo heaters have an efficiency of 100%. This means that all the electricity consumed is converted into heat. That is, the body itself does not withhold heat, it delivers it to 100% in space.
 
• Even lower consumption in stand by <0,5W [ecoDesign]

 
• They do not dry the air

Norway Nobo heaters have high-quality cold resistance, shielded in aluminum in order not to be ignited. By extension, it does not burn the oxygen of the atmosphere. It should be emphasized that the heaters do not have a ventilator! They don't blow hot air. They produce heat that diffuses harmoniously in the space. The Nobo heaters are suitable for children's rooms, for the elderly and people with respiratory sensitivities.

• A large area means more harmonious heat dissipation and a higher rate of fire/heat emission.

Nobo's new NTL4T heater operates 80% through natural flow and 20% through heating (heat emission). It has been designed in such a way as to achieve a large surface for the emission and diffusion of heat. Accordingly, more homogeneous and more efficient diffusion of heating.

The new Nobo NTL4T heater model has smaller dimensions [width] and therefore a more practical size for installation in the house, on the wall or on a wheeled floor base.

• Heat dissipation from the top and back of the panel

The heat in the Nobo NTL4T heaters is diffused by the blinds located at the top and behind the body. Thus, on the one hand, a better diffusion of heat in the room is achieved, while the aesthetic result is really excellent, as the blinds are not visible from the façade of the heater.

It is important that the large, smooth and unblemished surface of the façade increases heat emission, as well as better and more harmonious heat dissipation in the space.

• Thermal safety protection against overheating

If the heater is accidentally covered (it is forbidden!) then the built-in thermal fuse within the body automatically stops its operation. Remove the object that covers the body and turn off the device for five minutes. Re-open the device and the body is reopening normally.

Safety! Protection for children!

Even in Comfort (maximum) performance the outer surface of the body does not burn and is tolerated even at the touch of the child's hand. The natural airflow (convection) and the large surface of the body prevent the development of high temperatures on the outer surface of the convection.

Nobo's new NTL4T heater with its smooth surface is designed in such a way as to further reduce the temperature of the façade, making the convector even safer for children. Finally, the rounded corners are designed to avoid childhood accidents, while at the same time they are pleasantly harmonized with the environment.

In general, heaters are mounted on the wall. This is their natural position. But there are cases when there is no space available on the wall. In this case, NOBØ provides the possibility of placing the heaters on support legs with wheels.

The placement of NOBØ heaters on support treadles with wheels does not reduce in the least the efficiency, the quality of operation and the safety of the heater.

  • Completely silent operation

 

  • Built-in electronic space thermostat (deviation ± 0.1C°)
    Immediate reaction of the thermostat to changes in room temperature, silent operation and constant maintenance of the selected temperature.

 

  • Room temperature sensor

 

  • Low consumption, direct heating
    Atlantic radiators do not retain heat, they deliver it 100% to the space. The energy consumed in electricity is converted entirely into heat.

 

  • They do not dry the air
    The Atlantic radiators have cold resistance, shielded in aluminum in order not to glow. Therefore it does not burn the oxygen of the atmosphere and does not dry out the atmosphere.

 

  • Atlantic radiators have small, practical dimensions for mounting on the wall or on a floor base.

 

  • Heat dissipation from the front of the panel
    Atlantic radiators dissipate heat from the blinds located on the façade of the body inclined downwards. The accumulation of dust inside the body is prevented, and the diffusion of heat in the room becomes more harmonious.

 

  • Thermal safety protection against overheating
    Atlantic radiators have thermal safety. So, if the radiator is covered (prohibited!) or overturned (when it rests on floor wheels) it automatically stops its operation.

General Information

Negative ions are odorless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that we inhale in abundance in some parts of the environment. Think of mountains, waterfalls and beaches. Once our blood reaches, negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase the levels of chemical mood of Serotonin, helping to address depression, relieve stress, and boost our daily energy.

Ions are molecules that have acquired or lost an electrical charge. They are created in nature as air molecules break down with sunlight, radiation, and the movement of air and water. You may have experienced the power of negative ions when you last went to the beach or walked under a waterfall. This sense of euphoria is simply around us and is offered to us by nature.

The air circulating in the mountain and the sea is said to contain tens of thousands of negative ions. Consider that the average house or office building contains dozens or hundreds of negatively charged ions, while in many cases their existence is zero.

At Columbia University of America, studies have shown that people with chronic depression are relieved by generators producing negatively charged ions, as much as antidepressants, but without the side effects of these!

"In general, negative ions increase oxygen flow to the brain, lead to higher alertness, decreased drowsiness, and more mental energy," says Pierce J. Howard, PhD, author of "The Owners Manual for the Brain: Everyday Applications from Mind Brain Research and director of research at the Center for Applied Cognitive Sciences in Charlotte,  N.C.”

 

Negatively charged ions can also protect against germs in the air, resulting in reduced irritation due to inhalation of various particles that cause sneezing, coughing, or throat irritation. One in three of us who are sensitive to the effects of microbes in the air, negative ions can make us feel like we are flying.You are one of them, if you feel refreshed immediately the moment you open a window and breathe fresh, moist air.

 

"You may be one of them if you feel sleepy when you're around an air-condition, but you immediately feel rested and refreshed when you go out or when the car window opens," says Howard WebMD. "Air conditioning reduces in the atmosphere the number of negative ions, but a new ion generator releases the ions that air conditioners removed."

 

An in-depth investigation was carried out by Dr. Albert Krueger in California. One of his first discoveries was that a surprisingly small amount of negative ions could kill and remove from the air, the types of bacteria that cause colds, flu and respiratory infections.

  • Inactivate viruses, bacteria, fungus.
  •  Neutralize air pollutants (dust, cigarette smoke, etc.)
  •  Revitalize the air
  •  Increase the flow of oxygen to the brain, giving greater vitality, energy, clarity and spiritual well-being. Fight drowsiness and help memory
  •  Improve physical endurance
  •  They help with symptoms of depression
  •  Improve sleep quality
  •  Facilitate breathing
  •  Strengthen the immune system

The ionizer produces negatively charged ions in the air of the room, which effectively remove polluting particles from the air, such as allergens (including mold and dust), dust microparticles, bacteria, viruses, chemical fumes and tiny particles that a filter cannot retain.

The ionizer increases the effectiveness of the HEPA filter and the activated carbon filter, as it causes the particles to be magnetically attracted, thus creating larger particles that are easier for the filters to retain.

It disinfects viruses and bacteria that are captured in the filters, and that would normally reproduce in the filters if the negatively charged ions were not present.

Finally, the ionization function has the ability to remove particles suspended away from the air purifier, in parts of the room air where the filter has little efficiency. This is because the ions circulate throughout the room. The circulation of negatively charged ions is enhanced by the operation of the fan of the air purifier.

Filters Cleaner - Ionizer

Caption

The HEPA (High Efficiency Particle Arresting) air filter is made of very tiny glass fibers, which have been converted into a densely woven paper. This creates a filter consisting of a multitude of very small "sieves" that can capture extremely small particles, including some biological elements.Once pollutants and particles are trapped in the filter, they are not able to flow back into circulation due to the high absorbency resources of the HEPA air filter.

The HEPA air filter removes more than 99% of the particles (0.3 microns) that pass through the filter, preventing them from recirculating into the air.The HEPA filter is widely regarded as the most effective type of filter in the retention of a large volume of suspended dust, dust mites, allergens, fungal spores (Alternaria spp., Cladosporium spp., Aspergillus spp.) and other particles such as bacteria, including many ionized particles that would otherwise fall to the floor if we used a common ionizer.

The activated air carbon filter consists of a system with pores of molecular dimensions. These pores are highly absorbent, forming a strong chemical bond/attraction to odors, gases and polluting liquids.

It is the best type of filter in the retention and neutralization of chemicals, gases, odors, volatile organic chemicals (VOC) and cigarette smoke, which the HEPA filter cannot retain.
