Vornado VH240+ Space Heater

Most space heaters blow hot air directly at you, which creates a hot spot right in front of the unit. The Vornado VH240+ uses vortex circulation to continuously circulate all the air in the room, ensuring the temperature remains consistent from floor to ceiling rather than just heating the air immediately surrounding the device.

The VH240+ is designed for smaller spaces, specifically up to 250 square feet. It works best in bedrooms, home offices, or dens where you want to maintain a steady, comfortable temperature without overwhelming the room.

Yes, the unit features a cool-touch exterior housing. While the air coming out of the front grille is hot, the outer casing is designed to remain safe to touch, making it a better option for households with pets or children.

No, this model focuses on simple, reliable operation and does not include a remote control or a programmable timer. You adjust the heat settings and temperature manually using the controls on the unit.

The heater is equipped with a tip-over safety switch that automatically cuts power to the heating element and fan if the unit is tilted or knocked over. It also includes a 2-stage automatic shut-off system to prevent overheating.

While the unit has built-in safety features like tip-over protection and cool-touch housing, it is generally recommended to use space heaters only when you are awake and able to monitor them. Because it lacks a programmable timer, you would need to manually turn it off before going to sleep.
