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.
