Delonghi - Rapido Heater




By Gozochan on Dec 03, 2007

" "
We've got a fairly new model. It seems to have completely packed up. Tried the fuse (external). Has anyone got any suggestions? I wondered, for example, if there is an internal fuse I should check.
The heater is quite new and I can't think why it has packed up!

Many tks

- Thank you for trying to help but it seems a different kind of heater.
Ours is not a fan heater though it is an oil filled radiator type. There are no screws anywhere and I can't see how it can have a fan unit. Im not sure we are talking about the same mode.

-   my delonghi rapido blew up & fused my conservatory. it had been on for a couple of hours when a blue flash shorted out electrical circuit. we don't use the delonghi often but had sung its praises prior to this. it gives off a fantastic heat in a short perod of time.it is portable but quiet heavy to move around.
i bought it from argos november 2006 & also took out argos replacement product cover for 3years. has this product been recalled? -   Guest

you'll need to take apart the heater. in back are some screws that you take out and the unit should split - front cover - back enclosure. separate the fan from the housing and blow out, brush out the junk that is blocking the heat path on the back of the heater element. then reassemble the heater. go to a hardware store and buy some poly filter media. cut a piece to fit the back of your heater and tape it in place. it'll trap airborne particles before the fan. then when it gets clogged, wash the filter and tape it back in place. its a heck of a lot easier to replace this media then having to take apart the heater again.
