Workshop background and standards
Thermovar began out of frustration with flimsy high-street fan heaters that rattle, emit chemical odours, and fail after a single British winter. Cheap imports flood local retail with thin plastic casings, fragile glowing wires, and absent quality checks. We set out to assemble a compact heater that uses solid ceramic elements, sturdy flame-retardant polymers, and reliable copper fans.
We source certified PTC ceramic blocks and aluminium heat sinks directly from specialized manufacturers. Every component meets strict electrical fire safety requirements, and our team in London conducts physical load and insulation tests on every finished heater prior to packing. Nothing leaves our bench without passing continuity verification.
We operate as a direct-to-consumer workshop from Bermondsey Street without distributor markups. By managing our stock directly, offering transparent payments via cash on delivery or bank transfer, and providing prompt courier dispatch, we give home workers a dependable heating tool built for cold British rooms.
Component Integrity
We use pure copper motor windings and flame-retardant housing rather than cheap aluminium wiring and recycled brittle plastics. This ensures quiet, steady airflow across years of daily winter operation.
Zero Blind Imports
Every shipment delivered to our London warehouse undergoes physical inspection and continuity testing. We check switch actions and thermal cut-offs by hand before approving units for order packing.
Direct Accountability
Our team handles every customer message, replacement, and return directly from Bermondsey. We resolve delivery queries quickly without third-party call centers or automated deflection scripts.
Core Engineering Standards
PTC Ceramic Core
The heater uses a self-regulating PTC ceramic core mounted in flame-retardant ABS housing.
Targeted Workspace Warmth
Place the unit on a workbench or under an office desk to warm your immediate zone.
Built For Drafts
Ideal for remote professionals, garage craftsmen, and students working in unheated drafty rooms.
Bench Tested Units
We run an insulation continuity check on every single unit before it gets boxed.
Direct Pricing Model
Direct dispatch without retail intermediaries keeps the price focused on internal component quality.
London Stocked Goods
Units are stocked at our Bermondsey location for prompt courier handover.
