When and why use heaters for indoor cultivation?
Please note that it is not possible to state precisely how long it will take to heat the grow space or to what temperature. The manufacturer does not provide this information. This is because the resulting temperature is affected not only by the heater's input power, but also by the initial temperature and, above all, the size of the space. The ambient temperature and the quality of the internal space's thermal insulation also have an effect.

If the initial temperature inside the grow box 100x100x200 cm (space 2 m³) is, for example, 10° C and you want to increase it to 20° C, this will take some time depending on the conditions. If you want to heat the 200x200x200 cm grow box (space 8 m³) from 10° to 20° C, it will take approximately 4 times longer with the same power. With a heater with lower input power, you will most likely not manage it at all.

Moreover, when growing, it is not necessary to heat the entire space to the maximum temperature all the time.

The most important thing is a constant temperature around the plants themselves. This is why heating elements are mainly used to maintain a stable temperature.

What never to do with the Urban Heater:
- do not switch it on until it has been perfectly installed
- keep it out of the reach of children and pets
- do not handle it while the heater is connected to the mains
- do not immerse it in water
- do not leave the cable draped over the heating element
- do not install the heater near flammable or combustible objects
- disconnect it from the mains when not in use
- use only a damp, clean cloth for cleaning
