When electric heating is the right choice
Electric construction heating produces no fumes, no smell and no risk of CO. It can stand indoors without ventilation, and you don't have to fill up with diesel. That makes it the right choice for drying out new builds and renovations, for heating workshops, warehouses, shops and basements, and for frost protection in winter.
If you need to heat a large, open building, or the power supply is too weak, diesel is often better. See construction heating and ground thawing for an overview of both.
Check the power supply before you order
We supply construction heaters for both 230 V and 400 V – blue and red connectors. The Remko ELT fan heaters come in both versions. The 400 V ELT 6 has a CEE 16 A connector (5-pin) and needs a 3 × 10 A fuse. The 400 V ELT 9 has the same connector and needs 3 × 16 A. The 230 V ELT 9 has a CEE 32 A connector and needs 3 × 25 A. The 230 V ELT 18 has a CEE 63 A connector and needs a 3 × 50 A slow-blow fuse.
The smallest fan heaters, at 2 and 3 kW, run on 230 V. The 2 kW Nor Varm is single-phase. If you don't know what the installation on site provides, ask the electrician or call us before you order.
Reduced output and thermostat
The ELT fan heaters can run at reduced output: ELT 6 at 3 kW, ELT 9 at 4.5 kW and ELT 18 at 9 or 12 kW, depending on the model. The fuse requirements above apply to full output.
The stepless thermostat goes from 0 to 40 °C. Set it, and the fan heater keeps the temperature steady by itself.
Distribution boards, cables and generators
If you don't have the right socket, you can have the fan heater delivered with a site distribution board and cables. If the heater is to run on a generator, see what size generator you need and let us know when you order, so we can match heater and generator.
The ELT fan heaters are splash-proof (IP44), weigh from 13.5 to 27.5 kg and have carrying handles.
Questions and answers
Can I use an electric heater indoors without ventilation?
Yes. Electric heating produces no fumes and no risk of CO, so it can be used indoors without ventilation.
Why does the fuse trip when I start the heater?
Usually because the circuit is too weak for full output. Check the fuse requirement for the model, run at reduced output or choose a smaller fan heater.
Which construction heater works in an ordinary wall socket?
The 2 kW Nor Varm runs on 230 V single-phase. The larger fan heaters need 3-phase and a dedicated CEE connector.
Are the 230 V and 400 V models the same?
Output and size are the same, but the connector differs: blue connector on 230 V and red on 400 V, and the fuse requirement is different. Tell us what you have on site, and you'll get the right model.
