Trotec TDS 20C
Editor’s note: 5 / 5 | Reward : See the price on Amazon
With ceramic heating element for even more pleasant warmth and longer life! The Trotec TDS 20 C is a 3000 W construction site heater with a blower system to diffuse its air. In addition to offering the possibility of adjusting the temperature to 2 different heating levels (and at the same time offering a cold air position), it has an integrated thermostat which guarantees perfect uniformity in the flow of hot air. . Its electric operation also makes it ideal for indoor use (such as in a workshop) since it does not produce condensation or smoke and is silent. At the same time compact, portable and robust, it finally benefits from a metal casing for optimal protection and which at the same time allows it to be installed on the wall or on the ceiling thanks to the fixing threads.
My opinion : In blowing heating, it is one of the most powerful I have tried! Don’t be fooled by the size of this Trotec TDS 20, it’s not that it’s small so it heats up little, quite the contrary. I was pleasantly surprised by the force of his breath which, in a closed space, allows him to reach a completely comfortable temperature in a very short time, and that, in a more open space, he has no difficulty in dissipate heat. . On the construction side, we are also strong and it is therefore a device that we do not hesitate to take to the construction sites. The fact that the brand has thought of the possibility of fixing it to the air is also very interesting to take advantage of its warmth even more. With its different configurations and excellent performance, I can only recommend it!

A rapid rise in temperature! The electric construction heater (1800W) offered here by Stanley has a ceramic heating element which allows it to heat up faster and have a long service life. To adapt to all needs, it can be placed on 2 different heat levels and also benefits from 3 levels of airflow to circulate the heat and warm the room. Designed to be used in all conditions, its design has been reworked to make it more compact but also more resistant to shocks. Its solid structure also incorporates a handle that allows it to be moved easily while in terms of safety it has a temperature limiter and the presence of a safety fuse.
My opinion : Although the prices of the best electric heaters on the market are not very far from each other, I would still say that this Stanley offers good value for money. With a power going below 2000W, you should not expect to heat large volumes, but at less than 20-25m², it does its job rather well. I liked that it heats up quite quickly, that it offers the possibility of regulating the temperature and the breath and that the presence of ceramic guarantees a pleasant warmth, which is never dry. Nothing to say about its construction either, it’s solid and maneuverable, and that’s basically what it’s supposed to be. At this price, it’s a good option and should definitely live up to your expectations.
Trotec TDS 10M
Editor’s note: 4 / 5 | Reward : See the price on Amazon
A real auxiliary heater for individuals and professionals, the Trotec TDS 10 M has a power of 2000 W to heat up to 100 m³/h. Fitted with a ceramic element for more comfortable warmth, it also benefits from a built-in thermostat that helps it deliver a consistent temperature that can also be set to 2 levels (full power or only half power). Thanks to its electric operation, the dust in suspension in the workshop or on the site trailer is not burned, which does not pollute the air. Small in size, quiet enough not to disturb you, very light (only 1.54 kg) and easy to move where you need it (its 1.60 m cable also easily brings it back to an outlet), it has finally all the essential features and in particular the fact of being protected against overheating.
My opinion : If you are looking for a small, inexpensive heater for your workshop, I recommend Trotec. With a reduced power compared to the model that I presented to you above, it remains below 50 € but for this price it still benefits from the main characteristics and technologies (it blows, its thermostat is adjustable, etc.) . It is not afraid of anything either thanks to its solid hull but on the other hand it still makes a little noise. Not even bother, but it’s not the most discreet either! For this price, it is nevertheless a completely acceptable detail, especially since the rise in temperature it brings is quite fast (in small rooms, of course). Do not hesitate to trust him!
Trotec IDE 20
Editor’s note: 4.5 / 5 | Reward : See the price on Amazon
Shaped like a hot air cannon! With the Trotec IDE 20 you don’t have to be there to feel the heat: this diesel-powered construction site heater uses its power and fan to provide an airflow of 600 m³/h. This air, hot and dry to be more pleasant, perfectly meets many needs, whether on a construction site, in a warehouse or even in a workshop, especially since a thermostat is integrated into the machine. In addition to being versatile and efficient, the latter is also robust because it has a metal casing and is perfectly safe with its flame control and automatic shut-off in the event of an empty tank. Finally, note that it works with a low pressure spray for optimal combustion and greater autonomy.
My opinion : Trotec is clearly the brand that convinced me the most, and if you ever want a diesel-powered jobsite heater instead of an electric version, this is the model I recommend you look at. Obviously, it is much more efficient than a simple soplador, y ou est est uno de los más pequeños de la range, ya claramente suficiente par la mayoría de los sites de renovación de interiores (solo se necesitan 30 minutos par calentar más de 100 m² , for example). ). Once you understand how the thermostat works, it is very intuitive to use and you can even add a remote thermostat for better control if placed away from the work area. Powerful, it consumes little energy (1.9 l/h maximum at full power) and handy with its handle and wheels, it will meet your needs.

Like a stove in the workshop! Favex is playing with the codes here: as its auxiliary heater runs on gas, it gives off a beautiful chimney fire flame effect which offers an even better feeling of warmth. It must be said that thanks to the infrared technology available to this model, the heating of the room is immediate, as soon as it is turned on. It also has the advantage of being one of the cheapest on the market, especially since it is adjustable to 3 positions and can cover an area of up to 35 m². Completely safe, with the gas supply cut off in the event of flame extinction, it is both practical with its 4 castors for movement and with its bottle cap located at the back. Compatible with 13 kg cylinders for maximum autonomy (up to 107 h), including hose and regulator.
My opinion : Probably the most beautiful radiator you can find! Due to its gas operation and the fact that it would still be a little heavy to move it every day, this Favex is not really made for construction sites but to find its place in a place and not move, that whether in your bedroom, your garage or simply your workshop. If I wanted to present it to you, it is because in addition to its excellent performance (it heats up quickly and strongly… plus its window is not protected, so don’t get your hands on it!), it is quite beautiful. and even very friendly with his llama. In its favor is also the fact that it is simple to use and comes with the necessary accessories to connect the bottle. You can afford it without hesitation, you won’t regret having it by your side to keep you warm!
