Basically, instead of heating oil, it heats air from an electrical element and distributes it around the room.
"A
convection heater is a
heater which operates by air
convection currents circulating through the body of the appliance, and across its
heating element. This heats up the air, causing it to increase in area.
A convection heater may have either an electrical heater element, hot water coil, or steam coil. Because of the natural ventilation, they are quieter in operation than
fan heaters".
