Quartz Heater Vs. Ceramic Heater Efficiency
The ratio of convected heat to radiated heat is higher in ceramic heaters. As a result, quartz heaters are a better choice for overhead heaters. Quartz heaters can move up to full working temperature more quickly because they don't have the mass of a ceramic heater. A ceramic heater is better able to heat a room, however, while quartz heaters are better used for spot heating.
