Children, Pets, & Property Protected because EdenPURE(TM) Heater,
(http://www.edenpureheater.com), uses Infrared Quartz Light -- not Red-hot Coils
or Flames -- to Warm Room Air
CANTON, Ohio, Dec. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- After spending the last twenty
years as a responder with Ohio's fire and emergency medical services,
Captain Mike Hornby has seen his share of home fires started by space
heaters. Such fires are considered by firefighters as a grim facts-of-life,
especially during the cool winter months when the need for supplemental
heating in the home is the greatest. Statistics show that every year,
electric, gas, and kerosene space heaters combine to trigger more than
25,000 residential fires in the U.S., resulting in some 6,000 thousand
emergency room visits and hundreds of fatalities.
So when a nearby company, BioTech Research(R), contacted Captain
Hornsby at the firehouse and asked him to evaluate their new "fire-proof"
EdenPURE(TM) portable heater, (http://www.edenpureheater.com), Captain Hornby,
although curious, was reasonably certain the heater could never completely
live up to the company's description of it. Twenty years of experience had
taught him there was no such thing as a "fire-proof" space heater.
"I was skeptical, but I decided to put the heater through its paces,"
said Captain Hornby.
After receiving the EdenPURE(TM), Captain Hornby brought the unit into
the fire station during a training night and plugged it in.
"We used three layers of shag carpet to simulate how the heater would
operate in the home on a carpeted floor with padding," said Captain Hornby.
"Then, after an hour of operation on the carpet, we took our thermal
imaging camera and measured the unit's surface temperatures."
To Captain Hornby's surprise, the temperature of the heater's outer
surfaces measured between 95 and 98 degrees Fahrenheit - a range below the
level of his own body temperature.
"At those temperatures we determined that the EdenPURE(TM) heater would
be safe for a child, a pet, or an adult to touch," said Captain Hornby.
Captain Hornby then compared the EdenPURE(TM) to a portable electric
coil space heater similar to those usually available at a local discount
house or department store. When the electric coil heater was fired up and
the thermal imaging camera pointed directly at it, the camera showed the
unit to be operating at a blistering 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
"At that temperature, it wouldn't take long for the heater to ignite
nearby paper, robes, clothing, or blankets," said Capt. Hornby.
Looking for the maximum temperature generated by the EdenPURE(TM)
heater, Capt. Hornby aimed his camera deep down into EdenPURE's(TM) heat
exchange chamber and produced a reading of 143 degrees Fahrenheit; a
temperature uncomfortably warm to the touch but far below the temperature
required to ignite household furniture, drapes, or clothing.
"After running the EdenPURE(TM) through a gamut of tests, I would feel
comfortable recommending this heater to my friends, family, and all those
who might approach me to ask about this unit," said Captain Hornby.
"The folks at EdenPURE(TM) have not paid me for this endorsement, but
they've offered to leave an EdenPURE(TM) heater at the fire station,
because we have heating bills too," he added, referring to EdenPURE's(TM)
ability to cost-effectively heat homes (and fire stations, too) by using
electricity for its operation rather than more expensive energy sources
like natural gas and heating oil.
