       TECHNICAL FIELD  
       [0002] The present invention relates generally to room heating and cooling devices, and more specifically to a ceiling mounted heating and cooling device and method therefor. The present invention is particularly suitable for creating and uniformly distributing a primary heated airflow for heating a room and/or a primary cooled airflow for cooling a room.  
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
       [0003] Prior-art heating and cooling systems utilized in dwellings and/or offices typically employ large, thermostatically controlled, central forced air systems that convey heated/cooled air to various rooms of the dwelling or office via a complex system of ductwork. However, in view of inherent energy losses through such ductwork, and the size of the heating and cooling unit necessary to heat and cool the entire dwelling/office, such forced air systems generally fail to evenly distribute heated/cooled air. Furthermore, as central thermostats are incapable of providing uniform temperatures throughout a home or office, operational costs can be exceedingly high. Additionally, associated duct outlets, whether wall, floor or ceiling mounted, often produce hot and/or cold spots within a room, and thus tend to constrict furniture arrangement.  
       [0004] Ceiling fans are generally utilized to create air circulation and to produce a cooling affect through wind chill, but do so without raising and/or lowering the temperature of a room. Ceiling fans do, however, remove the stratification layers from a room and equalize the temperature therein.  
       [0005] Although ceiling fans having heaters suspended therefrom may be found by reference to U.S. Pat. No. 4,508,958 to Kan et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,668,920 to Pelonis, U.S. Pat. No. 5,887,785 to Yilmaz and U.S. Pat. No. 4,694,142 to Glucksman, such fans, in light of the present invention, are deficient in that they either fail to evenly distribute heated air throughout a room, and thus create hot and/or cold spots, or fail to protect the incorporated fan motor from adverse heat generated from improperly isolated heating elements and/or deficient airflow design.  
       [0006] Ceiling fans that effectively assist in thermostatically regulating room temperature are known however, and may be found in U.S. Pat. No. 6,240,247 to Reiker and U.S. Pat. No. 6,366,733 to Reiker, wherein the present application claims priority thereto via a chain of priority.  
       [0007] Ceiling fans and air movement devices designed to work in conjunction with an air conditioning device are also known and may be found by reference to U.S. Pat. No. 5,097,674 to Imaiida et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,524,450 to Chen, U.S. Pat. No. 4,598,632 to Johnson, and Patent No. 5,497,632 to Robinson. However, in light of the present invention, the aforementioned designs are deficient in that they fail to provide both a cooling and heating mode of operation, fail to remove condensed water vapor, and/or are dependent upon a wholly separate apparatus outside the realm of the invention to supply cooled or heated airflow.  
       [0008] Therefore, it is readily apparent that there is a need for a new and improved ceiling mounted heating and cooling device, wherein the device is capable of creating and uniformly distributing a primary heated airflow for heating a room and/or a primary cooled airflow for cooling a room. It is, therefore, to the provision of such an improvement that the present invention is directed.  
       BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
       [0009] Briefly described, in a preferred embodiment, the present invention overcomes the above-mentioned disadvantages and meets the recognized need for such a device by providing a highly efficient, preferably ceiling mounted heating and cooling device designed to achieve desired energy objectives by utilizing minimal amounts of energy to create a powerful, heated or cooled airflow to heat and/or cool a room.  
       [0010] According to its major aspects and broadly stated, the present invention in its preferred form is a ceiling mounted heating and cooling device having a heating device and an air conditioning apparatus.  
       [0011] More specifically, the present invention is a ceiling mounted heating and cooling device having a heating device preferably possessing an impeller, heating elements and heat sink material or heat shield, wherein the heat sink material or heat shield protects proximate components from unacceptable heat transfer from the heating elements. Located preferably above the heating device, preferably in an attic or between floors, is an air conditioning apparatus that preferably provides cooled airflow that preferably exits the ceiling above the blades of a distribution fan, wherein the distribution fan is disposed preferably below the heating device and the air conditioning apparatus, and preferably functions to uniformly distribute heated and cooled airflow throughout the room, breaking up stratification layers common to conventional heating and cooling systems.  
       [0012] In the heating mode, the present invention is designed to move air from an upward location, preferably adjacent the ceiling, by preferably energizing the impeller of the heating device and drawing air therein. As air is moved through the heating device, it is urged through the heating elements and then subsequently expelled through outlets as a primary heated airflow. The present invention is able to achieve its greatest efficiency through the constant recycling of heated air molecules, thus reducing the rising and subsequent dissipation of heated air molecules along the ceiling of a room. The present invention is designed to continuously recycle and thus reheat air molecules, recirculating them throughout the room in a preferably upward direction via assistance from the blades of the distribution fan.  
       [0013] During the heating mode of the device, as the temperature of a room reaches its desired comfort level, a preferred remote transmitter/receiver preferably reduces the amount of energy required to maintain the temperature of the room via reducing the number of heating elements activated and/or the energy consumed by the heating elements. The device is preferably designed to first achieve a desired temperature setting and then maintain the desired temperature utilizing the least amount of energy necessary.  
       [0014] In the cooling mode, the present invention is designed to produce a primary cooled airflow preferably via drawing air from the room to be cooled and preferably directing the air into a heat exchanger for subsequent discharge above the blades of the distribution fan. The distribution fan preferably distributes this cooled airflow in a downward direction to lower the temperature of both the room and the cool breezes that are directed at the room&#39;s occupants. In an alternate embodiment the distribution fan could operate in an upward direction and distribute the cooled air to also achieve a uniformly cooled temperature throughout the room.  
       [0015] During the cooling mode of the device, as the temperature of a room reaches its desired comfort level, a preferred remote transmitter/receiver preferably deactivates the air conditioning system and permits the distribution fan to continue to circulate the air in the room. As the temperature in the room rises, the remote transmitter/receiver preferably reactivates the air conditioning system to enable the primary cooled airflow produced thereby to mix with the airflow supplied by the distribution fan, thereby lowering the temperature of the room and reducing the temperature of the airflow directed at the room&#39;s occupants. In an alternate embodiment the temperature in the room could be stabilized by lowering the speed of the evaporator fan, thereby reducing the amount of cooled airflow added to the room.  
       [0016] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to provide a more efficient method of heating and cooling a single room as compared to conventional heating and cooling systems.  
       [0017] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to function with minimal ductwork, wherein prior-art dependency upon and the utilization of large amounts of lengthy ductwork has proven to contribute to a 30% to 40% energy loss due to pressure and heat losses associated therewith and common placement thereof in cold and/or hot attics.  
       [0018] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to provide a method of heating and cooling specific rooms and/or areas within any type of building, wherein utilization of such a method enables the occupant of the building to regulate the temperature of each room, rather than attempting to regulate an entire home or an entire floor with a conventional centrally-mounted thermostat.  
       [0019] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to efficiently and rapidly heat or cool only those rooms in use, while rooms not in use, can be closed off, heated and/or cooled just prior to their intended use and/or occupancy.  
       [0020] A feature and advantage of the present invention is the inherent safety provided by mounting the device on the ceiling rather than in the vicinity of children, pets or home furnishings.  
       [0021] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to establish different temperatures in different or separate rooms on the same floor of a building structure.  
       [0022] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to permit an individual having a generally warmer body temperature to utilize the air conditioning feature of the present invention in one room, while an individual having a generally colder body temperature may utilize the heating feature of the present invention in another room.  
       [0023] A feature and advantage of the present invention is the proximity of all components for ease of maintenance.  
       [0024] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to continually stimulate heated or cooled air molecules for distribution throughout a room, wherein such stimulation results in large eddies of air colliding and transferring their heated or cooled energy to achieve near uniform room temperatures.  
       [0025] A feature and advantage of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is its ability to be mounted in a location that will not encumber or interfere with furniture and/or furniture arrangements.  
       [0026] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to break up stratification layers, remove hot and/or cold spots, and effect a more comfortable conditioned environment.  
       [0027] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to warm cold window glass to further enhance the comfort level in a room possessing windows.  
       [0028] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to cool hot window glass to further enhance the comfort level in a room possessing windows.  
       [0029] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to prevent condensed water vapor from leaking into a room, behind a ceiling and/or in the attic of a home.  
       [0030] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to provide a less obtrusive heating and cooling system when installed.  
       [0031] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to be installed at an overall lesser cost than conventional H/VAC systems.  
       [0032] A feature and advantage of the present invention is its ability to provide a heating and air conditioning apparatus that reduces the level of noise generally associated with conventional heating and/or cooling systems.  
       [0033] These and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent to one skilled in the art from the following description and claims when read in light of the accompanying drawings.

     [0092] Referring now to FIG. 2, illustrated therein is the preferred external appearance of device  1000  showing device A- 4  positioned preferably below and attached to circular-shaped decorative medallion  1500 , wherein medallion  1500  is preferably attached to ceiling  7200  to preferably shield from view the internal components of device  1000  housed above ceiling  7200  and preferably within attic  7150 , as more fully described below. Screened apertures  4002 ,  4004 ,  4006  and  4008  are preferably positioned on and equally spaced around outer periphery  1502  of medallion  1500 , wherein screened apertures  4002 ,  4004 ,  4006  and  4008  are preferably in communication with inlet assembly  4000  of evaporator  2600 , as more fully described below. Screened apertures  5002 ,  5004 ,  5006  and  5008  are preferably positioned on and equally spaced around inner periphery  1504  of medallion  1500 , wherein screened apertures  5002 ,  5004 ,  5006  and  5008  are preferably in communication with outlet assembly  5000  of evaporator  2600 , as more fully described below. Inlet assembly  4000  and outlet assembly  5000  of evaporator  2600  preferably function to process a cool airflow in the cooling mode of device  1000 , while outlet  20  of device A- 4  preferably functions to exhaust a heated airflow in the heating mode of device  1000 , as more fully described below.  
     [0093] Referring now to FIGS.  3 - 6 A, illustrated therein is air conditioning system/unit  1100  mounted preferably above ceiling  7200 , between ceiling joists  7400  and within attic  7150  of home  7100 . As known within the art, air conditioning systems function to transfer undesirable heat from within a building to outside the building. Specifically, an air conditioning system is a closed system wherein a compressor compresses cool refrigerant gas, causing the refrigerant gas to become hot, high-pressure gas. The hot gas then runs through a set of coils/heat exchanger, commonly termed a condenser, wherein the gas dissipates/releases its heat and condenses into a liquid via the assistance of a fan blowing air over the hot condenser to transfer excess heat from the hot refrigerant gas to the outside air. The refrigerant liquid then passes through an expansion valve and in the process evaporates, thus becoming a cold, low-pressure gas.

     [0105] Referring now to FIG. 9, illustrated therein is the preferred operation of air recirculating and heating device A- 4  when operating in the heating phase. Upon energization of heating module  16 , molecules of air, represented by a stream of circles  30 , are moved through preferred inlets  18  disposed on heating module  16 , as representatively depicted by arrows  32 . These molecules of air are heated within heating module  16  and exhausted as a primary heated airflow  35  through outlets  20 . Upon energization of heating module  16 , auxiliary fan module  22  is also energized to produce an upward secondary airflow  34 , as depicted by arrows  34 .

Arrows  38  appearing throughout FIG. 9 designate the movement of plurality of streams of heated air molecules  36 .  
     [0106] Windows of a room are historically and notoriously responsible for adjacent cold spots resulting in downwardly flowing air thereby causing discomfort to an occupant in proximity to the window. As depicted in FIG. 9, the energy of heated air molecules  36  is sufficient to cause a scrubbing action as it flows adjacent the window(s) thereby resulting in the dislodging of the cold air molecule layer. Through such dislodgment, the cold air molecules are replaced with warm air molecules on a continuing basis resulting in warming of the window. Such removal of the cold air molecules and warming of the interior window surface will essentially eliminate the cold spots formerly associated with each window. As heated air molecules  36  continuously move throughout room  7100 , a near uniform air temperature throughout the room corresponding with a preset desired temperature is preferably established and maintained without the production of unwanted hot and/or cold spots. Moreover, it is less expensive to maintain a desired temperature for a room having near uniform temperatures.

Alternatively, other means for wireless transmission such as, for exemplary purposes only, infrared (IR) signals or any means known within the art may be utilized. Such a transmitter/receiver control unit eliminates the need for rewiring the wall and ceiling, which is of particular benefit when installing an air recirculating and heating device A- 4  in an existing building. It should also be noted that the RF signals transmitted could be at different frequencies for various air recirculating and heating devices such that different control units will control different air recirculating and heating devices A- 4 . It is further contemplated that if infrared or other short-range signal control unit is utilized, one control unit could be utilized to operate a multitude of air recirculating and heating devices A- 4 , wherein the control unit is in relatively close proximity thereto. Alternatively, an RF or IR signal could be encoded to minimize inadvertent operation of another air recirculating and heating device A- 4 . Additionally, a single control unit could have controls for selectively controlling a multitude of air recirculating and heating devices A- 4 .

Coupler aperture  673 A of shroud  260  receives the upper portion of coupler  630 .  
     [0125] A preferably circular-shaped preferred support plate  604  positioned below auxiliary fan motor  116  is threadably engaged with hollow shaft  112  and secured thereto via preferred nut  645 . Support plate  604  preferably has mounted on preferred side  604 A a remote control receiver unit  610  and supports the adaptation of optional light module  28  on preferred side  604 B. Preferably mounted between remote control receiver unit  610  and support plate  604  is preferred insulative barrier  285 , wherein insulative barrier  285  functions to protect remote control receiver unit  610  from heat produced by optional light module  28 . Remote control receiver unit  610  preferably controls the operation of heating module  16 , auxiliary fan module  22  and optional lamp assembly  28  pursuant to manual or automatic signal outputs from a transmitter control unit  247  and received by remote control receiver unit  610 . Remote control receiver unit  610  further preferably controls the number of heating elements  100  (i.e.,  222 A- 222 D) that are activated—any one or all of heating elements  222 A- 222 D can be activated in any order desired.  
     [0126] Optional lamp assembly  28  is preferably conventionally attached to side  604 B via a preferred base  130  having preferably apertures  132 A and  132 B for penetrably receiving screws or the like (not shown) that extend through support plate  604 . A preferred central aperture  132 C further allows routing of electrical conductors  50  to lamps  136  (not shown). One or more optional lamps  136  (not shown) are mounted on base  130 . An optional transparent or translucent cover  138  is removably attached to base  130  to shield optional lamps  136  and permit transmission of light therethrough.  
     [0127] For powering of the various electrical components of heating device A- 4 , electrical conductors  50  are channeled through the entirety of heating device A- 4 . Electrical conductors  50  are preferably electrically connected to a source of power within the ceiling and channeled first through passage  612 E of cover  612 .

     [0128] Referring now to FIG. 11, illustrated therein is an amplification and cutaway of lower heat shield  820 , upper heat shield  800  and impeller  84  and motor  88  combination. Motor  88  and impeller  84  combination preferably draw air into circular opening  178  and create primary airflow  32  that exits along the outside radius of impeller  84 . FIG. 11 depicts the unique preferred tandem or juxtaposed configuration of heating elements  100 , wherein heating elements  100  are preferably Positive Thermal Coefficient Ceramic Heating Elements. It is this novel and preferred configuration that allows heating device A- 4  to achieve an enhanced flow rate at a higher exit temperature using lower energy settings than in previous configurations. By transferring a more robust heated air stream over fan blades  24 , the heated airspace achieves higher temperatures at a faster rate of change. Heat shields  800  and  820  are preferably made of a heat sink plastic that inhibits the conductive transfer of heat, generated by heating elements  100 , from impacting the reliability of motor  88  or auxiliary fan motor  116 . Further, lower heat shield  820  and upper heat shield  800  combination form an enclosure around impeller  84  to ensure the proper channeling of airflow away from impeller  84 , through heating elements  100  and through outlets  20  where airflow is exhausted as primary heated airflow  35 . Heating elements  100  are preferably aligned in a preferred tandem arrangement to enhance the efficiency of primary heated airflow  35 .  
     [0129] Referring now to FIG. 12, illustrated therein is a schematic diagram of a preferred apparatus for controlling operation of heating device A- 4 . It should be noted that both remote control receiver unit  610  and preferred transmitter  247  are commercially derived units that rely on digital readouts and computerization for size. New instructions for regulating heating elements  100  should be programmed into remote control receiver unit  610  and transmitter  247  for operation of heating device A- 4 . Contained within the functions of transmitter  247  and remote control receiver unit  610  are heating device A- 4  activation and deactivation switches, switches for activating a desired number of heating elements  100 , switches for activating auxiliary fan motor  116  and optional lamp assembly  28 , as well as a digital display to indicate the chosen function, switches to increase or decrease desired temperature when in the heating mode, digital monitoring of both desired and actual temperature when in the heating mode, digital monitoring of the number of heating elements  100  activated when in the heating mode and switches to increase or decrease fan speed when in the fan mode.  
     [0130] There are various ways to regulate the amount of heat generated by a heating device. Among them, but not limited to, are analog switches, pull chains, buttons, timers, thermostats, remote control devices, their equivalence or any known means. It should be construed that the preferred manual or automatic remote control devices with their associated remote control receiver unit  610  could be, in alternate embodiments, any or all of the possible ways to regulate, as listed above, and are within the scope of the invention. A remote control receiver unit  610  preferably receives control signals  240  from transmitter  247 . It is to be understood that the functions to be described of transmitter  247  may be incorporated into either a single unit or multitude of units. A source of power  248 , such as conventional 120/220-volt alternating current available in all dwellings and office buildings, provides power via conductors  50  to remote control receiver unit  610 ; or, in an alternate embodiment, remote control receiver unit  610  may be battery or solar operated. Transmitter  247  may be battery powered or hard wired to a source of conventional 120/220-volt alternating current. Remote control receiver unit  610 , on command, energizes one or more of heating elements  222  (A, B, C and/or D) via preferred conductors  220  (A, B, C and/or D, respectively) under command of transmitter  247 . Along with energization of one or more of heating elements  222 A- 222 D, motor  88  and impeller  84  are energized via preferred conductor  88 A, to cause a primary airflow  32  to move past heating elements  222 A- 222 D and exhaust from heating module  16  as primary heated airflow  35 . To distribute primary heated airflow  35  throughout a room, auxiliary fan motor  116  is energized via preferred conductor  116 B to cause attached fan blades  24  to provide an upward secondary airflow  34  for mixing with primary heated airflow  35 , resulting in the subsequent distribution of a mixture of airflows  36  throughout the room in which heating is desired. If attached, transmitter  247  through remote control receiver unit  610  can also energize optional lamp assembly  28  via preferred conductor  28 A. For safety reasons, a preferred overheat shut-off module  250  may be connected via preferred conductor  250 A through remote control receiver unit  610  to cause de-energization of heating elements  222 A- 222 D upon overheating.  
     [0131] Referring to FIG. 13, heating device A- 4  is shown in the assembled version, depicting the modularity and relative locations of heating module  16 , auxiliary fan module  22  and optional light module  28 . Each module acts in an integrated fashion to first produce a heated air stream from heating module  16  with a flow of air created by impeller  84  rotated by primary motor  88  and heated by heating elements  100  before being exhausted through outlets  20 . The resulting primary heated airflow  35  in turn mixes with upward secondary airflow  34  produced by rotation of fan blades  24  of auxiliary fan module  22 , wherein the mixing of upward secondary airflow  34  with primary heated airflow  35  results in upward secondary airflow  34  becoming heated and subsequently distributed throughout room  7300 . Preferably located downward of auxiliary fan motor  116  is remote control receiver unit  610 , wherein remote control receiver unit  610  preferably controls the electrical components of heating device A- 4 . Shown in this embodiment is a commercially available preferred fluorescent light kit  281  with associated ballast resistor  282 . Optional lamp assembly  28  is preferably attached to plate  604 , wherein plate  604  supports a preferred bracket  283 . Bracket  283  preferably supports a conventional mounting assembly  284  to support decorative globe  286  of optional lamp assembly  28 . Preferably mounted upward of plate  604  is a preferred insulative barrier  285  to reduce the transfer of heat from optional light module  28  to remote control receiver unit  610 .  
     [0132] Referring now to FIGS. 14A through 17B, there is illustrated the operation of preferred transmitter  247  and the resulting effect on heating module  16  and its main components, motorized impeller  84  and heating elements  222 A,  222 B,  222 C and  222 D, to create primary heated airflow  35 . As depicted, preferred transmitter  247  includes options for power-on or power-off of heating device A- 4 ; monitoring and selecting heat or fan settings; monitoring and setting desired temperature; monitoring actual room temperature; adjusting fan speed; adjusting illumination of optional light module  28  and monitoring the number of heating elements  100  currently in use. If room  7300  is to be heated, the power button on preferred transmitter  247  is depressed and the digital display is actuated. The heat button is then depressed highlighting the word “heat” on the digital display and activating the heating module. The desired temperature is then set with the + and − buttons above and below the heat button, wherein depression of the + and − buttons changes the desired temperature digital display. Heating module  16  then automatically activates preferably motorized impeller  84 , one or more of heating elements  222 A,  222 B,  222 C and  222 D depending on the temperature range between desired and, actual temperature and auxiliary fan module  22  to rotate in the upward direction. If only the fan is required for cooling, the fan button is depressed, causing the word “fan” to become highlighted on the digital display and auxiliary fan module  22  to rotate fan blades  24  in the downward direction. The speed of fan rotation is adjusted with the + or − buttons above and below the fan button. Upon initial startup, in the heat mode, and assuming that the desired temperature is at least three degrees higher than the actual temperature, preferred transmitter  247  will activate all heating elements  222 A- 222 D in order to quickly narrow the gap between actual room temperature and desired room temperature. As the gap narrows heating elements  222 A- 222 D will be automatically deactivated until only the minimum required to maintain the desired temperature are producing heat. It is to be noted that any computer algorithm may be applied to preferred transmitter  247  and preferred remote control receiver unit  610  combination to activate the timing of heating element  100  activation or deactivation. Any or all of those algorithms must be considered within the scope of the present invention.  
     [0133] As illustrated in FIGS. 14A and 14B, desired temperature 75 degrees and actual room temperature are separated by 10 degrees causing all heating elements  222 A- 222 D to be activated for increasing the room temperature. As illustrated in FIGS. 15A and 15B, when the desired temperature and actual temperature as indicated on preferred transmitter  247  near, heating elements  222 A- 222 D will start to deactivate in order to maintain the desire room temperature. FIGS. 15A and 15B illustrate the condition where only three heating elements  222 A,  222 B and  222 C are activated. FIGS. 16A and 16B illustrate a condition where only two heating elements  222 A and  222 B are activated, and FIGS. 17A and 17B illustrate the ultimate condition where only heating element  222 A is activated to maintain the desired temperature. Should the actual temperature drop due to a decrease in outside air temperature, an open door or open window, transmitter  247  will command the reactivation of heating elements  222 B,  222 C or  222 D to maintain the desired room temperature. It is this preferred function that enables air recirculating and heating device A- 4  to efficiently use electrical energy to heat a room.

     [0182] Referring now to FIG. 34, a schematic diagram of an apparatus for controlling operation of heating device A- 5  is illustrated. It should be noted that both remote control receiver unit  610  and preferred transmitter  247  are commercially derived units that rely on digital readouts and computerization for size. New instructions for regulating heating elements  100  should be programmed into remote control receiver unit  610  and transmitter  247  for operation of heating device A- 5 . Contained within the functions of transmitter  247  and remote control receiver unit  610  are heating device A- 5  activation and deactivation switches, switches for activating a desired number of heating elements  100 , switches for powering an attached ceiling fan  22 , as well as a digital display to indicate the chosen function, switches to increase or decrease desired temperature when in the heating mode, digital monitoring of both desired and actual temperature when in the heating mode, and digital monitoring of the number of heating elements  100  activated when in the heating mode.  
     [0183] There are various ways to regulate the amount of heat generated by a heating device. Among them, but not limited to, are analog switches, pull chains, buttons, timers, thermostats, remote control devices, their equivalence or any known means. It should be construed that the manual or automatic remote control devices with their associated remote control receiver unit  610  could be, in alternate embodiments, any or all of the possible ways to regulate, as listed above, and are within the scope of the invention. A remote control receiver unit  610  receives control signals  240  from transmitter  247 . It is to be understood that the functions to be described of transmitter  247  may be incorporated into either a single unit or multitude of units. A source of power  248 , such as conventional 120/220-volt alternating current available in all dwellings and office buildings, provides power via conductors  50  to remote control receiver unit  610 ; or, in an alternate embodiment, remote control receiver unit  610  may be battery or solar operated. Transmitter  247  may be battery powered or hard wired to a source of conventional 120/220-volt alternating current. Remote control receiver unit  610 , on command, energizes one or more of heating elements  222  (A, B, C and/or D) via conductors  220  (A, B, C and/or D, respectively) under command of transmitter  247 . Along with energization of one or more of heating elements  222 A- 222 D, motor  88  and impeller  84  are energized via conductor  88 A to cause a primary airflow  32  to move past heating elements  222 A- 222 D and exhaust from heating module  516  as primary heated airflow  35 . To assistance in the distribution of primary heated airflow  35  throughout a room, an attached ceiling fan  22  is energized via conductor  116 B to provide a secondary airflow  34  for mixing with primary heated airflow  35 , resulting in the subsequent distribution of a mixture of airflows throughout the room in which heating is desired. For safety reasons, overheat shut-off module  250  may be connected via conductor  250 A through remote control receiver unit  610  and cause de-energization of heating elements  222 A- 222 D upon the occurrence of an overheat condition.  
     [0184] Referring now to FIGS. 35A through 38B, illustrated therein is the operation of transmitter  247  and the resulting effect on heating module  516  and its main components, impeller  84  and heating elements  222 A,  222 B,  222 C and  222 D, to create a primary heated airflow. As depicted, transmitter  247  includes options for power-on or power-off of heating device A- 5 ; monitoring and selecting heat and fan settings; monitoring and setting desired temperature; monitoring actual room temperature; and monitoring the number of heating elements  100  currently in use. Also depicted is the tandem configuration of heating elements  100 . In this configuration, the temperature of the exhausted airflow is enhanced by first passing through one heating element  100  and subsequently through another heating element  100  to raise the temperature of the exiting airflow. If the heating device A- 5  is to be used, the power button on preferred transmitter  247  is depressed and the digital display is actuated. For heating, the “HEAT” button is depressed, highlighting the word “HEAT” on the digital display and activating heating module  516 . The desired temperature is then set with the “+” and “−” buttons above and below the heat button, wherein depression of the “+” and “−” buttons changes the desired temperature digital display. Heating module  516  then automatically activates impeller  84 , one or more of heating elements  222 A,  222 B,  222 C and  222 D depending on the temperature range between desired and actual temperature. If attached, ceiling fan  22  is also powered and should preferably be set, through its endemic control capability, to rotate in the preferably upward direction. If only the fan is required for cooling, the “FAN” button is depressed, causing the word “FAN” to become highlighted on the digital display, thus only ceiling fan  22  is activated and controlled via the endemic control capability of ceiling fan  22 . Upon initial startup, in the heat mode, and assuming that the desired temperature is at least three degrees higher than the actual temperature, transmitter  247  will activate all heating elements  222 A- 222 D in order to quickly narrow the gap between actual room temperature and desired room temperature. As the gap narrows heating elements  222 A- 222 D will be automatically deactivated until only the minimum required to maintain the desired temperature are producing heat. It is to be noted that any computer algorithm may be applied to transmitter  247  and remote control receiver unit  610  combinations to activate the timing of heating element  100  activation or deactivation. Any or all of those algorithms must be considered within the scope of the present invention.  
     [0185] As illustrated in FIGS. 35A and 35B, desired temperature 75 degrees and actual room temperature are separated by 10 degrees causing all heating elements  222 A- 222 D to be activated for increasing the room temperature. As illustrated in FIGS. 36A and 36B, when the desired temperature and actual temperature as indicated on transmitter  247  near, heating elements  222 A- 222 D will start to deactivate in order to maintain the desired room temperature. FIGS. 36A and 36B illustrate the condition where only three heating elements  222 A,  222 B and  222 C are activated. FIGS. 37A and 37B illustrate a condition where only two heating elements  222 A and  222 B are activated, and FIGS. 38A and 38B illustrate the ultimate condition where only heating element  222 A is activated to maintain the desired temperature. Should the actual temperature drop due to a decrease in outside air temperature, an open door or open window, transmitter  247  will command the reactivation of heating elements  222 B,  222 C or  222 D to maintain the desired room temperature. It is this function that enables heating device A- 5  to efficiently use electrical energy to heat a room.  
     [0186] Although heating elements  100 / 222  are tandemly arranged within heating device A- 5 , it is contemplated in an alternate embodiment that heating elements  100 / 222  could be arranged in a different manner within heating device A 5 , and/or any of heating devices A- 4 , A- 11 , A- 3 , A- 2  and/or A- 1 , as best illustrated in FIG. 39. Specifically, FIG. 39 is a top partial cut-away view of heating module  125 , showing the equally spaced individual heating elements  222  disposed therein. Support plate  160  is partially shown along with slots  282  formed therein and the top of pin  164 . The perimeter of upper support plate  160  is nestled within lip  204  of heat shield  180 . As illustrated, electrical conductors  240  are electrically secured to tabs  230  and  232  (of which only tab  232  is shown) and routed through a central passageway extending through pin  164  as an alternative. Electrical conductors  240  are routed to heating elements  222  via channels disposed in support plate  160 . An apertured screen  102  is mounted within its slots  202  to prevent physical contact with heating element  222  upstream therefrom. It may also be noted that wall sections  211  on opposed sides of the ends of each heating elements  222  in combination with the connecting surfaces of each heat shield  180  and  182  define the passageway for exhausting the heated primary airflow induced by impeller  184 .  
     [0187] Referring now FIG. 40, illustrated therein is a partial cut-away view of heating module  125 , showing the structures intermediate heat shields  180  and  182 . Various heat shield designs were evaluated to perform three basic functions: support heating elements  222 ; prevent the transfer of heat between heating elements  222  and proximate components; and promote the channeling of the primary airflow. The design of heating module  125  as illustrated in FIG. 40 is but one of many ways to accomplish these tasks. Among those designs evaluated but not limited to were, metal structures with heat sink inserts, full heat sink structure, open architecture and combinations thereof. The chosen design lent to ease of manufacturability but all of the designs, listed above and their equivalence, are within the scope of the invention. More particularly, FIG. 40 depicts each of four (4) heating elements  222  retained equiangularly intermediate heat shields  180  and  182 . Each of heat shields  180  and  182  includes a depression  224  for nestingly receiving the body of a heating elements  222 . Optional disk  192 , disposed centrally of opening  206  supports stator  190 , and rotor  186  of motor  188  supports impeller  184 . It is noted that opening  206  in heat shield  180  is generally coincident with the perimeter of impeller  184 . Upon inspection it will become evident that as air is drawn through circular opening  278  of impeller  184 , such air flows past motor  188  and will have a cooling effect thereon. The air exhausted by vanes  274  of impeller  184  will be channeled proximal to wall sections  211  of heat shields  180  and  182  and through each of heating elements  222 . As described more fully below, some or all of heating elements  222  may be energized and those that are, will raise the temperature of the air flowing therethrough. Each of heating elements  222  includes tabs  230  and  232 , wherein tabs  230  and  232  are located within respective ones of slots  216  and  218  in wall sections  211  of each of heat shields  180  and  182 . As such, retention of heating elements  222  is enhanced by locking action resultant from tabs  230  and  232  being disposed within their respective slots  216  and  218 .  
     [0188] Referring now to FIG. 41, it is contemplated in yet another alternate embodiment that heating device A- 5  could possess more than one impeller. Specifically, as best depicted in FIG. 41, heating elements  700  of heating device A- 5  could each individually possess an impeller  784  positioned proximal thereto for the urging of air through heating elements  700  to create a primary heated airflow  731  exhausted via outlets  720 . It is recognized in an alternate embodiment that device A- 5  may incorporate any number of inlets  718  and outlets  720 .  
     [0189] Referring now to FIG. 42, illustrated therein is another alternate embodiment of heating device A- 5 , having two opposingly positioned heating modules  816 , a ceiling fan  22  conventionally mounted to a ceiling fan brace  111 , an electric box  112  connected to a standard electrical power source, such as 120/220AC, to supply power to preferred remote control receiver  60  and, via conductors  50 , to associated electrically powered components. Attached to electric box  112  is standard ceiling fan hanger bracket  34 , wherein hanger bracket  34  cradles standard hanger ball  35  conventionally attached to down rod  25 , thereby completing the supporting mechanism for ceiling fan  22 . In this alternate embodiment, ceiling fan down rod  25  is replaced with another down rod having apertures  25 A and  25 B for the further routing of conductors  50  to heating modules  816 . Attached to down rod  25  is mounting plate  65  with attached collar  65 C secured to down rod  25  by setscrews  65 D. A bracket  65 B extends from mounting plate  65  to secure heating modules  816 . Heating modules  816  perform the task of directing heated airflow into the path of an upward airflow created by ceiling fan  22  and ceiling fan blades  24 . The upward airflow directs the mixed warm air first against the ceiling then into circulation down the walls, across the floor and back again into circulation. Heating modules  816  create this heated airflow by first drawing air through inlet  818  (not shown) in response to rotation of a motorized fan  85 . The resultant airflow is then directed past heating elements  100  prior to being exhausted past outlets  820  for mixing with the upward airflow created by ceiling fan  22 . Remote control receiver  60  receives transmissions from either a remote or hard-wired device as explained previously in this specification in previous embodiments.  
     [0190] Referring now to FIG. 43, illustrated therein is another alternate embodiment of device A- 5 , showing heating modules  916  mounted independent from ceiling fan  22 . The association between the heating modules  916  and ceiling fan  22  has no mechanical interface and is functional only. Ceiling fan  22  is conventionally mounted to a preferred ceiling fan brace  111  and electrical box  112 . Heating modules  916  can be independently and upwardly attached within the furthest arc created by blades  24  of ceiling fan  22  and can be mounted as a single unit or in multiples depending on the amount of heating required/desired. In the present alternate embodiment, primary heating modules  916  are mounted to an electrical box  112 A via brackets  965 B and wing nut/conventional nut  965 C. Electrical box  112 A houses remote control receiver  60  and is further connected to a standard 120/220AC household current. Furthermore, heating modules  916  can be mounted using a variety of attachment means including, screws, nuts and bolts, adhesives and/or expansion screws  966 . Remote control receiver  60  is activated by a hand-held device as previously explained in this specification or hardwired to receive controls that direct the amount of heat produced by heating module  916 . Ceiling fan  22  is controlled by conventional means as supplied by the manufacturer of ceiling fan  22 . Electrical conduit  50  provides the electrical power to activate motorized fan  85  and heating elements  100 . Heated airflow is created in response to the rotation of at least one motorized fan  85  drawing air through inlet  918  and then forcing the created airflow through heating element  100 . The heated airflow is thereafter exhausted through outlet  920  for mixing with the preferred upward flow of air created by ceiling fan  22 .
