Avant DGS 1000w

£432.67

inc. VAT

The Avant DGS produces heat that feels just like a traditional central heating radiator. The design has specially designed internal heating ‘fins’ for optimum heat distribution and fast heat up times throughout the room.

With just two buttons and a clear LCD screen this radiator is so easy to use, but still offers digital temperature control, which together with the technically advanced construction helps reduce running costs and provides you with a warm comfortable home.

The Avant DGS has 7 pre-set programmes and a clever ‘open window’ sensor.

Ducasa Avant DGS radiators are simple to use, good looking and economical to run. Made from recycled aluminium with a tough powder-coat finish, the smooth lines of the radiator hide a multitude of technically advanced design features. The body of the radiator hides a system of discreet aluminium fins, which are heated by a special maintenance free heat transfer fluid.

The components are perfectly balanced to provide fast heat up times, together with sufficient retained heat to ensure a comfortable and near constant room temperature. Some lookalike heaters have a dry convector, ceramic or inertia element, which may heat up quickly but they also lose their heat quickly, producing peaks and troughs of heat resulting in less comfort. Some lookalike heaters cause the air to become ‘dry’, which leads sore sinuses and itchy eyes. Because the surface area of the Avant DGS is much larger it doesn’t change humidity levels and us therefore much more comfortable.

To adjust the room temperature just use the + or – button and let the radiators’ digital system do the rest. Accurate to 0.2°C, the technically advanced radiator will help to reduce your bills by avoiding ‘overheat’.

By pressing both buttons at the same time for a few seconds the 7 pre-set programmes are revealed. Then simply set the time and choose the programme that suits your needs and that’s it.

This clever electric radiator also comes with Open Window Detection, which switches the heater off temporarily when a window or door is opened to reduce wasted energy and help with running costs.

Your rooms need to be warm and comfortable all year round, so it is important to fit the correct size and number of heaters.

If your home is new, it may be possible to calculate the heat loss with U-values, which are a measure of insulation. It is then possible to calculate the wattage required, however it is still necessary to decide the best place for your heaters to be installed.

Most customers are unlikely to have the U-values for their home so we have put together the following guidelines to help decide which heaters to buy.

You must first work out the size of your room by measuring the length and width then multiply the two numbers.

When you know the size, simply choose the box below which best describes your room and multiple the size by the wattage required.

Example: 11.1m² x 80w (new, well insulated) = 888w

Then you should choose the heater model and the wattage which best suits your requirements. It’s unlikely our heater wattages will match your requirements exactly, so always best to choose the next size up. All our heaters have thermostats which will switch off the heater when the room is warm enough, so running costs won’t increase.

Still unsure what size or model of heater to choose? No problem – call the team at Ducasa Direct – a family business with over a decades experience and here to offer friendly, free and honest advice.

No, because there are no moving parts. An occasional wipe with a cloth to the front and the back to keep the air vents free of dust should suffice.

No, radiant heating products have been enjoyed for decades – open fires, traditional radiators and the sun all produce radiant heat.

The Sunburst and Sunrise are fitted with a plug. The other heaters are bare ended cable however a plug can be fitted if you wish – always consult an electrician.

The approximate running cost for the Ducasa heaters depends on many factors but can be as low as 3p per hour.

The heater controls and cable are on the right-hand side.

Lengths vary from model to model so if you need more accurate details please contact us.

No, the heaters can only be mounted horizontally.

No, if you can use basic tools and fit a plug, you can install the heaters yourself however it is always best to consult an electrician to ensure the safe installation of any electrical appliance if a plug is not fitted.

Yes, although you should allow at least 500mm of clear space between any furniture when using the radiant panel heaters.

Yes, the heaters are fitted with thermostats and frost protection as standard.

The Ducasa Sunburst can be used as a portable appliance or wall-mounted. If the Ducasa Avant or Richmond range of heaters are bought with the optional feet, then they can be made portable. The other Ducasa products are only wall mountable.

Our heaters are designed to get no hotter than a traditional central heating radiator, however care should always be taken with the young, old and infirm.

As a guide, based on a modern well insulated property allow 80 to 100w of power for every square meter.

Most of our heaters can be programmed, details are on each product page. Please do call our help line for more information.
