A fan heater blows warm air for a quick blast of heat in a box room, a shed or a caravan.

That is why an oil heater keeps warming the room after the thermostat switches the element off.

At 2000W it uses 2 units an hour, less once the thermostat starts cycling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery electric heater turns its electricity into heat, so wattage and hours decide the bill, not the heater type. Where an oil filled radiator helps is heat retention: its warm oil keeps radiating after the element cycles off, so over a long evening the element spends less time drawing power.
