Wall heaters operate by heating a stream of air moving through the unit by convection. There usually is no blower.

Wall heaters are simple and easily maintained, but do not distribute heated air efficiently. Installation of a forced air heating system might be considered in conjunction with other upgrades and/or remodeling. Because the nature of the moving air stream, Wall heaters tend to rapidly collect dust, animal hair, etc. in the lower part of the unit. Regular vacuuming (with a special nozzle, if necessary) is important for the furnace's safe operation.
