Heat Storm’s infrared heaters are known for direct, immediate warmth. The HS-1500-PHX Phoenix model builds on that with a simple, flexible design and a genuinely useful remote. It’s a straightforward tool for taking the chill out of a focused space.

The 1500-watt high setting provides a solid 5200 BTU of radiant heat, which warms objects and people directly rather than just the air. You feel it quickly. The 750-watt low setting is perfect for maintaining warmth or for smaller areas, and it cuts energy use in half. The digital thermostat lets you set a target temperature and walk away, while the overheat protection adds a necessary layer of safety for unattended operation.

In practice, the attachable feet offer a stable floor placement, or you can mount it on a wall to free up floor space. The remote is a small but significant perk, allowing you to adjust settings from across the room. Just know its infrared heat is directional; it excels at heating what’s in front of it, not evenly distributing air throughout a large, open floor plan. For a home office, workshop, or bedroom, it delivers efficient, on-demand warmth without complication.
