Temperature Controls:
Thermostat vs. Thermistor
Thermostat
The bi-metal thermostatic
control, which is featured on the Vornado VH2 model
heater, will cycle the unit on and off as it reaches the
point of heat selected on the dial on top of the unit.
The VH2 has a “plus-to-minus” temperature control dial;
it is not calibrated but rather approximated.
Thermistor
The thermistor on the DVTH
model heater maintains a constant room temperature and
eliminates annoying hot and cold cycles. A thermistor is
a sophisticated sensor that allows the heater to
self-adjust the heat output to maintain the desired
temperature. You select the temperature using the
calibrated temperature control on the top of the unit.
