Engineered for superior safety

A metal heater that’s actually cool enough to touch? It may sound like an oxymoron, but it’s not! Introducing the revolutionary Vornado TouchStone Vortex Heat 500 (TVH 500) –engineered for superior safety. What makes the TouchStone so safe? It’s forged from steel to be fire-resistant and has a unique double-wall airflow construction to keep the case cool to touch.

How it Works: At Vornado, we challenged our team of engineers to design a safer heater. Through fresh, innovative thinking, we created a heater with a metal case that does not conduct heat because a ring of cooler air surrounds the warm air generated by the heater. This exclusive double-wall airflow construction keeps the outside of the heater cool, while warming a room in minutes.

Whole Room Heat Circulation: The TVH 500 uses Vornado’s signature vortex (tornado-like) circulation to quietly and evenly warm a room from wall to wall and floor to ceiling. Ordinary space heaters cycle on and off leaving pockets of warm and cold air in a room. Vornado’s vortex action technology eliminates hot and cold spots by providing the heat you need, when you need it. Why heat every room in your home to 72˚? Save energy and money by heating only the room you’re in with the TouchStone .

Advanced Multi-Level Safety Protection: The Vornado TouchStone Vortex Heat 500 has built-in safety features including:

  • Tip-over protection: Heater will automatically shut off if tipped towards the front or back.

  • Safety shut-off system: If curtains, clothes or blankets block airflow, the heater automatically cuts power to the heat element to prevent overheating.

  • Tight grill veins: Resists curious fingers.

  • Illuminated indicator light: A visible reminder that the heater is on.

  • Ideal exit air temperature: Approximately 120° F, warm enough to heat an entire room. This temperature is approximately the exit air of most central forced air heating systems.

Not only was the TouchStone engineered for superior safety, but also it’s user-friendly. Climate control is at your fingertips with the easy-to-use remote control. Or use the simple push-button, digital control panel to set the thermostat and timer. The heater’s lightweight, compact size and built-in handle make it easy to move from room to room. The durable powder coat finish gives the heater a modern style that’s unobtrusive.

Energy Saving Tips:

According to the United States Department of Energy, heating and cooling accounts for about 56% of the energy use in a typical U.S. home, making it the largest energy expense for most homes.[1] With the Vornado TVH 500 whole-room heater, you can reduce the amount of money you spend on heating your home by following these helpful energy saving tips: 

Instead of heating every room in your home to 72˚, set the household thermostat as low as possible and use a Vornado TVH 500 to warm the room(s) you’re using. In fact, for every degree you lower your thermostat; you could save up to 4 percent on your energy costs. 

Set the household thermostat even lower at night and use a whole-room heater, like the TVH 500, in the bedroom since it safely warms an entire room and is whisper quiet. 

Keep your home thermostat and central heat setting fairly constant since frequent changes use more energy by causing unnecessary on-and-off cycling. If you need additional heat in a room, use a whole room heater to supplement the home heating system.

Close doors to unoccupied rooms or areas that are isolated from the rest of the house. Also close vents to direct warm air into other areas of the house.

Open draperies and shades on south-facing windows during the winter to allow sunlight to enter the home. Close them at night to reduce the amount of cold air seeping in from cold or drafty windows.
