Clicking sound
on December 4, 2023

Great product, heats well, easy to program, ....BUT, it makes a click sound every time the heater core goes on or off. Little heater core light goes on... CLICK, temp starts going up, coils and coil lights go off a minute or two later... CLICK! All night 😁 Anyway to turn this sound off?

This model has a metal heat shroud over the fins which pops loudly similar to a cork popping out of a bottle or a tin can expanding/contracting during heat cycles. I have 2 other Delonghi radiator heaters without shrouds and they are silent except for the thermostat clicking. This model appears to produce more heat through the top of the shroud but at the cost of peace and quiet. The popping noise is so consistent and annoying that it diminishes the value of this heater which cost twice that of my other heaters.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This unit heats my 10 ft x 12 ft enclosed porch with 9 ft ceiling adequately at 68-70 deg. A noiseless unit. Like the digital readout, though “ECO” light is very dim. Unit gives off light oil scent when heating up from cold room. Surprised since oil is sealed. All in all happy with heater.
This was exactly what I needed. I am beachfront with floor to ceiling windows and still this header keeps things toasty! I absolutely love it. I'm renting and homes in Mexico often don't have heat. It was worth every penny.
Works as anticipated. I use it in my basement, to supplement radiator heat in the above 2 stories, basement gets pretty cold down to low 50s. Live in Pittsburgh so doesn't get too cold here. But this helps to warm the lower area, a little small for the space. I have been using a ~5' extension cord with it and has been fine so far, plug connections get warm--about the same temperature as a phone charger. I have left it plugged in for 8+ hours, checking periodically to make sure everything is safe. Eventually will install a plug closer to where it is used. Been using normal 120volt 15 amp circuit and it doesn't trip the breaker. Did smell a little at the beginning, like a new stove, but haven't noticed the last few times I've used it. Maybe smelled for first few days running probably 5-8 hours each day. Happy to use an electric source of heat given my electricity is renewably supplied.
Great heater! Warms up quickly and puts out a lot more radiant heat than other electric radiators we have tried. We use it to warm a large bedroom with lots of windows in the Minnesota winter, and it does a great job. Very satisfied.
