It’s still peak winter outside, but MediaMarkt is still moving into the next gear when it comes to selling AENO infrared heaters. And includes other devices from the provider in the deal range.

With high heating costs and additional payments, you have probably already thought about alternatives for your gas or oil heating that can warm you during the cold and uncomfortable winter days. An alternative would be smart heaters that are equipped with energy-saving and environmentally friendly heating technology.

The company AENO is presenting such a heating solution with its infrared heater, which was awarded the “Red Dot Award” in the “Heating and Air Conditioning Technology” and “Smart Products” categories in 2023. AENO emphasizes that you can increase your comfort and reduce your heating costs by up to 50 percent.

At Media Markt you can currently save when you buy. You just have to decide whether you want an LED display or not. The price is accordingly: 184.90 or 229 dollars.

Heaters based on infrared heat technology heat objects and air without drying them or blowing air around. Like the sun, the energy is released evenly and distributed throughout the room. According to the manufacturer, this can save up to 50 percent on heating costs compared to other classic heating devices. Please note that the heater is powered by electricity, which means that there are operating costs that can vary depending on the electricity tariff.

At the same time, electricity-powered infrared heaters are suitable for converting excess energy from a balcony power plant or a solar system into heat – sometimes this is cheaper than feeding it into the general power grid and heating with fossil fuels.

The integrated LED display offers an intuitive user interface that enables control and individual adjustment of the heating. Among other things, you can adjust the temperature manually and display both the room temperature and the desired temperature. You can also easily view time settings and energy consumption via the app.

In Smart mode, the desired room temperature is maintained and the heating is automatically adjusted in the event of temperature fluctuations, for example due to an open window. If you activate night mode, the brightness of the LED display is reduced; alternatively, you can adjust the lighting as you wish.

The manufacturer states that the heaters are made from environmentally friendly materials and cover an area of ​​up to 30 square meters. AENO relies on simple assembly without additional tools. The heater is attached to the wall or floor using the brackets and feet provided. A tilt sensor and a child lock should ensure the necessary safety.
