Cozy Products use radiant energy to warm you rather than the entire room. No heat is wasted at the ceiling, seeping out of cracks or in areas that do not need to be heated. Our heaters minimize the heat loss from the body without overheating the air or ever becoming to hot to the touch.
Radiant heating is the delivery of heat from a hot surface directly to people. Think of the sun on a hot day – when the rays hit the earth, objects are the first to absorb the heat. The heat emanating from those surfaces then warms the air. Notice how concrete and the air directly above it is very hot? That is the definition of radiant heat.
This is one reason why radiant heating is more efficient than baseboard heating – since it covers a larger area, it allows for a lower room temperature. With no moving air in vents, it is better for allergies and asthma. There is also no air or energy lost through the ducts. The body absorbs the heat so none of it is wasted in the air, which lessens energy costs and carbon emissions.

Even the smallest space heaters pose a serious threat to the environment and are pretty steep financially. Dumping a small space heater and replacing it with a one of our products will save you literally thousands of dollars. None of our indoor warmers use over 100 watts making them a better choice than any convection heating device.
