Does anyone here own an oil radiator/heater?
yep
what about it
>>51429463
does it like, radiate heat?
>>51429463
Could you tell me, if you listen closely to the front of your radiator, do you hear that "humming" silent low-pitch noise?
Of course your surroundings have to be free of noise.

>>51429490
Yeah. That's why you don't see much of these around anymore. Some of the heat radiation can get into your body and cause you to develop cancer over time.

keeps the living room warm

sorry for late response
i tried listening for almost 2 minutes, it's completely silent apart from a few clicky sounds likely caused by the plastic on the controller unit expanding and contracting when exposed to heat

What's the brand? I have new air, and I suspect that due to the remote and the electronic panel it generates that "humming" noise, it gets on my nerves! I want to get another one.

bosch, bought it 4 years ago
if you can still return yours since it's new you should do it, just tell them it makes squeaky noises and you're concerned it's gonna explode and you've never had one make sounds like that before
>>51429765
it doesn't many any squeaky noise, it's just that this low pitch silent humming is killing me, other regular people won't give a damn about it, but I do
>>51429513
I have one beside my bed when I sleep. It doesn't make except for the clicking sound every once in a while like >>51429698 said. I think the clicking sound is actually the thing turning on and off to maintain the correct amount of heat.
You know the thing works well when it gets cold in a matter of minutes after turning it off.
>>51429804
No that clicks don't bother me, is that constant low-pitch humming is what gets on my nerves.
>>51429443
yup
>>51429889
but I thought AMD handled heat issues better than Nvidia?
>>51429901
stock? neither are good
>>51429901
it does, at stock clocks, it doesnt even make that much heat, but it does really work as a room heater lol
>>51429443
I have one a little bigger than that. can take fucking ages to make the room warm sometimes but its nice when it gets there, i keep it set pretty low just to take the edge off
>>51429443
I think in the closet upstairs we have one, but we haven't used it in years.
>>51429513
I have one never heard humming. It's got two knobs and no remote. Says maxheat on the front and if I remember right it was 30 burgerbucks.
>>51429513
That's just the inverter, don't worry about it.
If you're trying to sleep and it's bothering you, just turn it to a higher temp so your room is warmer then turn it down before you go to bed so it'll be longer before it turns on.
