The Heat Storm Phoenix 1500 Watt, infrared floor to wall heater is a great solution for any bedroom or small room where there is not much floor space. At 1500-Watts, this heater will easily heat up your room without tripping your circuit breaker. Quickly mounts onto your wall or attach the included feet to place it on the floor. Simply plugs into any standard household outlet. This heater is safe to touch, even on the grill, making it a great choice for anyone. This unit has three power modes; full 1,500-Watt. half 750 -Watt, and auto mode automatically selects between half and full power. Each heater comes with our Patented Heat Exchanger HMS Technology that allows maximum heat efficiency from the infrared quartz bulbs without any heat loss from the unit.
This portable 1500 watt infrared heater has the power to heat up a small room or office with its 5200 BTU heat output. Two power modes, one uses the full 1,500 watt power while the other only uses 750 watts.
Our patented heat exchanger with HMS Technology combines with humidity in the room to provide soft, safe heat without reducing oxygen or humidity. Safe to touch, even the grill.
Small convenient size makes this perfect for any room in the house. Hang it on the wall or set it on the ground thanks to removable feet and wall mounting points on the back of the heater.
Built in thermostat with LED display shows you what the ambient temperature is and helps regulate the temperature efficiently. Included remote control allows you to control the temperature with ease.
This heater comes with a 1 year manufacturer warranty

Title: Great product!
Review: This product works very well and is very convenient as you can connect multiple of them using their app to control it from your phone.! Also, they have their own built-in thermostats again which in the app you also have the thermostat and all the controls to be able to set them to keep your home at certain temperature of your choosing, and save money on your utilities if you use them correctly. Also comes with a fairly thin but easy to wash filter on the side. You can mount these at the bottom of your wall and use them in each room if you choose to for zone heating and if you use them as such, you can actually control your whole home without having to use your furnace. Again I have been using them and just my wood fireplace instead of using my furnace and they have kept my home warm. Also, you can change the decibel sound and the fan speed from low to a natural air where it kind of fluctuates just as it would outside with the airflow and movement of the wind and also has a high setting for the fan. You can also use them as heat or , as they do also have a setting where you can just use the fan mode to circulate air in your home in the summer or to help cool down an area if it is too warm, such as a kitchen after cooking or baking something which causes excess heat in your kitchen when you cook. Anyhow just a great all-around item. Again just make sure you are using them and having them set properly. Also, the screen where the heat comes out is not hot to the touch so it is safe around children and pets.

Title: Slim, wall-mounted, easy to use and perfect for small/medium space.
Review: We are really pleased with this heater so far. Bought for a bathroom as supplemental heating to main house heating. The product looks clean, smart and modern and functions just the same. The Wifi is a must and the main reason i purchased this device. The app allows you to control the heater from the phone but more importantly to schedule the device to turn on and turn off at preset times (like early morning), at your desired temperature, and on your choices of days (like "work days only" as an example). The heater works by radiant heat but also has a blower. The blower is not overly loud. There are 3 selectable modes for the blower/heat power: Low, High and Auto. Auto mode operates at full power (100%) until the room (ambient) temperature is within a degree or so of the set (desired) temperature and then it "throttles down" to 50% until the room is up to the desired set temperature. High and Low modes simply operate at High (100%) or Low (50%) continually until the desired temperature is achieved and the thermostat turns the product off, the same as a normal HVAC thermostat control. We simply leave it on Auto mode. The display panel is excellent, you can modify the brightness if desired (also from the app!). The current temperature is displayed and you can manually adjust the set level using the + or - keys (it's essentially a touch screen display almost). The new set temperature will flash for a few seconds for you to see (when adjusted) and then the display returns to the ambient temperature as the heater attempts to meet the set level. Both levels (set and ambient) are displayed together on the app so you can see what the room is and what your appliance is trying to get to. I put a new outlet in the bathroom wall and strategically located the outlet at the rear where there is a large cable storage area with a removable storage cover recessed into the rear plastic body of the heater. This way the cord and outlet are not seen when mounted and it is flush to the wall - it looks great this way and looks like it is "hard-wired" - i included a photo. Note that the rating is 1500Watts which is approximately 12.5 Amps so take this into account if you have other loads on your circuit for wire and breaker sizing but remember that this is a continuous maximum rating (100% power) and this product is not designed to run at 100% indefinitely (since it is thermostat controlled). Also be aware that any bathroom outlets need to be GFCI (although this device does not have a ground pin - it does not exempt an additional outlet from being a GFCI). As always, you should consult a certified electrician and adhere to all code regulations especially for bathroom, kitchen or similar applications.The only issue encountered was during initial wifi setup. When downloading the Smart Life app the initial app install asked for some generic global settings about locations services and out of an abundance of caution i declined some of them (security / privacy reasons). After 30 minutes of frustration trying to discover the device using the EZ connect method and then the manual AP method i finally realized that one of these settings was preventing the discovery of the heater on my network. I was just about to call the help line. (Under iPhone General Settings>Smart Life>Local Network slider should be "on" to "allow Smart Life to access". This is not in the App set up or in the product literature. If this is not set to "on" the heater will not connect at all. As soon as i changed it to on it became available. Since then the Wifi has been consistent and never dropped once in 2 weeks. When the unit is unplugged from the outlet for a long duration the settings remain and so the unit reconnects automatically without user intervention (in case of power outage). The unit is wall mount only but i believe that feet for floor standing are available for purchase from the seller via Amazon.In summary, this was a great purchase for looks, functionality, convenience and performance. Highly Recommended and i am not easily pleased!

Title: Internal Thermostat Not Accurate
Review: The heater works perfectly. The form factor is very atttractive. I heats the bathroom to 85 degrees. However, the internal thermostat is not accurate (off by nearly 8 degrees). The error changes as it heat up. I ordered the $40 Heat Storm external thermotat (not available from Amazon). The eternal thermostat pairs easily to the heater and is perfectly calibrated. Now I am very happy. I dropped the rating to four stars because of the thermostat issue.

Title: Whole room heat whisper quiet
Review: Every once in a while you hit the lottery! This thing is quiet, puts out a good amount of heat rapidly, and cycles on and off when it reaches temperature to maintain comfort level that you set. It’s within a degree of accuracy, better than my HVAC unit! So, it’s used in a basement bedroom to augment HVAC, probably 300 sq ft space, and it keeps the area nice and toasty! Great purchase! Very pleased! Remote works well, has a high and low fan setting, and an accurate thermostat.

Review: This is honestly a great product. I have a studio gym in my garage and for the past 2 winters it has been able to heat it up exceptionally well through the Ontario winters.The smart home appliance app allows me to set on and off timers for it which makes me it convenient so by the time I get in here it’s already warm.Highly recommend for spaces like garages/dens /shacks or small rooms!

Review: We live in an older home in a spot in Northern Canada where - 30 C is not at all uncommon. We've gone through a fair number of space heaters - they either die, or seem like they might be dying and don't want to see what that looks like when it happens.These units are really, really good. They serve as effective secondary heat when the registers aren't kicking out enough warm air, and the auto power setting heats the room up quickly despite operating at a lower wattage. They're fast, and a cool down process is factored in when you turn off the power after running it for a while, so the heater itself isn't subject to the heat stress it would go through if you just unplugged it. They're extremely portable so you can take them from one room to the next, and they can also be attached to a wall if you're limited on the floorspace.We're running two of these units in the basement sutie - one in a family room and one in a bedroom. I highly recomment them.My only issue is the lack of WiFi connectivity on the models with the floor stand, but WiFi for the ones that are wall only.It might be a technology thing that makes perfect sense, but it seems like it's something that could be added and while not really expensive, at $250 average for each heater it's a price point the company could throw in something extra on.Having said that, I am thoroughly impressed with these and highly recommend them.

Review: this is so fabulous I was looking for a radiator type heat because heat rises so something on the floor does a spectacular it doesn't overheat I have it going for days. It has a temperature gauge so I turn it down at night. It turns off if you hit it perfect for the RV or even a garage. I can still use my microwave and a couple of other things

Review: I have a small 900 sq. ft. cottage in a SW BC beach community. My 25 year old gas furnace finally had to be turned off due to CO emissions after its pre-winter maintenance test.I use wi-fi enabled smart devices, and was happy to discover the HEAT STORM HS-1500 was an alternative to a baseboard heater, has a fan, wi-fi and integrates to Alexa, and not hard-wired. Because this item was sold and shipped by Amazon, I took a chance to order as it meant if it did not suit my purpose, the return would be easy (no 3rd party issues).I selected the wall-mount model for a space under a large kitchen window and central to my home. Super easy to wall-mount with the included template and took all of 5 minutes. Turned it on and found the booklet instructions to change from F to C. Setup my wi-fi and paired it to Alexa.I have it set to come on to 18C at 05:15am and by 05:30 our day begins. There is a fan which you can set to low and it is not noticed after a while. The white area of the unit is not hot to the touch so if either me or my dog brushes it there is no "OW".I use a couple of oil-filled portable radiators in my two bedrooms off the kitchen area and have found the HS-1500 warms not just my kitchen area but adds warmth in the early mornings to those as well.Very happy that I was able to find an easy to manage, affordable solution to help keep my home warm this winter, and don't want frozen pipes.

Customers say
