Dyson Hot+Cool Fan Heater AM09

Pricey but probably cheaper than an in-wall heater and an electrician to do the install.
The Dyson Site does not include any technical information. You have to hunt for it via Google. It is basically a fan with heater. The cooling is only a fan so no heat is removed from the room. To answer another Post, it will not do any cooling of a lanai.
In the heating mode at top setting the electric power draw is 1500 watts and will draw 12.5 amps. So RG123 in post #23 is correct. The typical room outlets are 15A and some are 20A and can trip the breaker if you any other large loads on the circuit.

My question to metoo21, did you ever use one of these units? If so, did you use it in heating and cooling?

I agree that it would be a cheaper way to go for occasional heating than an installed wall unit. However, it will not do any cooling. It is simply a fan.
