The Soleus MS11 Flat Panel Reflective Space Heater uses halogen heating technology that replicates the sun’s healthy rays by directly warming the person or object in front of the heater. This heater is great for open or large rooms and saves energy by warming objects and not the entire room. It does not produce odors, chemicals or fumes and doesn’t stir up dust. Also, the heater’s exterior does not get as warm which reduces the risk of burns from anyone or anything touching the heater while in use. The Soleus MS11 flat panel reflective space heater is energy efficient. It uses less power to create the same amount of heat as traditional heaters. It has a safety tip-over switch and overheat auto shut off for your safety. It also has a polarized plug that is designed to fit into a power outlet one way.
