Konvi Hybrid Infrared Heating Panel
A Symbiosis Between Infrared and Convection Heaters
A Symbiosis Between Infrared and Convection Heaters
Experience the best of two different heating systems thanks to VASNER’s infrared electric heater with thermostat control and convection.
You may already be familiar with infrared and convection heaters. But as of now, the manufacturer VASNER also offers an extremely efficient hybrid infrared heating panel. The new Konvi electric heater with thermostat control proves that two heating techniques can be combined successfully. Far infrared waves + additional warm air = dual performance for quicker and more intense warmth. True innovation.

Interplay of Infrared Heat and Warm Air
Latest infrared radiant technology finely tuned with established convection warmth. The metal casing of the hybrid heating panel is specifically designed to additionally warm up the room air within its interior. This raises the heater’s efficiency noticeably compared to a standard far infrared heating panel or an ordinary convection heater.
Application Areas of the Hybrid Panel Heater
With the new hybrid infrared heating panel, you can heat living spaces, hobby rooms, basements and developed attics significantly faster than with a conventional infrared radiant heat panel. This makes the hybrid electric heater with thermostat control a popular choice for smaller hotels and vacation homes that are only heated at certain times and require a quicker temperature increase.
How Does the VASNER Hybrid Infrared Heating Panel Work?
Fully Fledged Infrared Panel Heater
Konvi is a full-featured infrared heating panel that offers the same far infrared intensity as a standard radiant heat panel. The premium infrared technology is embedded all the way into the edges of the heater. Therefore, the hybrid infrared heating panel offers even radiant warmth that smoothly spreads around the room.
Chimney Effect for Warm Air
Unlike a conventional infrared heater panel, the electric heater with thermostat control doesn’t just directly heat the objects and people in the room. A small share of radiant warmth is directed towards the inside of the hybrid infrared heating panel as well, in order to heat the special convection plates within the casing. This creates warm air on the inside, which is then emitted through the upper ventilation slots. Simultaneously, cold air is drawn into the bottom of the hybrid heater. This is what is known as the chimney effect.
Even Quicker Heat
The hybrid wall mounted panel has special openings on the top and bottom which allow for convection. Thanks to these, the hybrid infrared heating panel slightly resembles an ordinary convection heater. Through the combination of infrared warmth and convection, however, the hybrid panel heater allows for noticeably quicker heating.

Efficient Heating with the Hybrid Infrared Heating Panel by VASNER
This product combines the benefits of two different areas: Pleasant infrared warmth with additionally heated air. The VASNER hybrid approach.
VASNER Hybrid Heating Fins for Higher Thermal Efficiency
Not all hybrids are equally effective. VASNER hybrid infrared heating panels are characterized by a hidden quality feature. Trapezoidal heating fins enlarge the heating surface on the inside of the device and thus produce around 34% more warmth than cheaper models on the market without this feature. The enlarged heating surface provides a stronger chimney effect that quickly heats a larger volume of cool air from bottom to top. VASNER heating fins are the invisible quality feature of the entire Konvi range.

The Infrared Electric Heater with Thermostat Regulation
The hybrid infrared convection heater has a mechanical thermostat which allows you to manually control the unit. This makes it into a completely independent system. All you need to do is plug it in and connect it to a programmable thermostat according to Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC and Regulation (EU) 2015/1188, enabling an installation of the hybrid infrared heating panel virtually anywhere. Additionally, special supporting feet are available, which transform the electric heater with thermostat regulation into a mobile heat source for the individual rooms of your apartment.
Stepless Thermostat Control
With the thermostat rotary knob, you can smoothly regulate the warmth of the hybrid infrared panel heater. The dial allows you to steplessly adjust the room temperature without fixed heat levels. Once set, the electric heater with thermostat control automatically maintains your desired comfort temperature. Therefore, unlike ordinary infrared home heaters, the hybrid device does not require an external thermostat. Latest technology for added comfort.
Intelligent Heating According to (EU) 2015/1188
The Konvi hybrid series has a built-in mechanical thermostat. Within the scope of Regulation (EU) 2015/1188, electric room heaters must be controlled and operated via electronic room temperature controllers (thermostats) with a “weekday control” and “window-open-detection” function or “adaptive control of the start of heating”. For example, with the matching thermostat set VASNER VFTB you can optimally control infrared heating panels. As the hybrid heater has an open interface, you can either use your own thermostat system, which may already be in use in your building, or use our VFTB thermostat system. In case of operation via an electronic thermostat, the mechanically integrated thermostat of the Konvi heater must always be set to its highest level (ON)! You can find the matching thermostat set VFTB here. >>

The Advanced Infrared Hybrid Design
Despite the integration of two heating techniques, the casing of the hybrid infrared heating panel is only 4,3 cm deep. Thanks to its discreet design and its flat construction, the electro infrared convection heater is a multi-talent that can be perfectly incorporated into any room. Both visually and technologically. In addition to the popular model in white, the infrared panel heater is now also available in black for an even more flexible coordination with your interior decor. The product can be easily set up by plugging the power cord into any ordinary outlet and connecting the panel heater to a programmable thermostat according to Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC and Regulation (EU) 2015/1188. This means, the electric heater with thermostat control does not require additional heating pipes as would be the case with ordinary convection heaters. The hybrid infrared panel heater can be installed easily and flexibly with the included wall mount. Use the products practically anywhere in the house, office, basement, office or conservatory by simply hanging them up, plugging them in and connecting them to a suitable thermostat.
The Electric Heater with Thermostat Control as a Mobile Heating System
Practical Support Feet
Thanks to its well thought out wall mount, the hybrid infrared radiator panel can be taken down within seconds to be used as a mobile heater or hung up in a different place. The hybrid panel heater’s especially designed bracket allows you to operate the product in an absolutely flexible way.
VASNER offers special supporting feet for its hybrid infrared heating panel, enabling the electric wall heater to be used as a mobile heating system. Simply attach the optional accessories to the back of the far infrared heating unit with a few screws and the panel can be used flexibly and spontaneously as a portable infrared heater. The elegant bases in white or black allow for an ideal distance of 5 cm to the floor, so that the convection of the hybrid radiator panel can take place as efficiently as possible. The practical support feet enable a dual heating process wherever it is needed.

Radiation Efficiency VASNER
The radiation efficiency of our infrared panel heater series clearly exceeds the required 40%.
We will be happy to provide you with the exact values of our individual models on request.
Info – as currently decided in the IG-Infrared association:
Values that exceed the required 40% have only little significance within the scientific standard with regard to a “better / more efficient effect” of the heaters. Therefore, we refrain from declaring our higher values individually as an “efficiency statement”.
The radiation efficiency of VASNER infrared panel heaters was determined by the Technical University of Dresden on behalf of VASNER in accordance with the test guideline DIN EN IEC 60675-3.
