Buying Guide
FAQs
What is the most important factor when choosing a space heater?
The most critical factor is the heating capacity, measured in watts, which must match the size of your room. A good rule of thumb is to provide about 10 watts of heating power per square foot of floor space. Choosing the right wattage ensures the heater can effectively warm the area without constantly running at its maximum.
What’s the difference between ceramic, infrared, and oil-filled heaters?
Ceramic heaters use a ceramic element to provide quick, targeted heat and are generally compact, making them great for small spaces. Infrared heaters warm objects and people directly, offering immediate warmth similar to the sun, which is ideal for spot heating. Oil-filled radiators are silent and provide long-lasting, gentle radiant heat, perfect for all-day use in a bedroom or living room.
Which safety features are essential for a space heater?
Essential safety features include an automatic tip-over switch that shuts the unit off if it’s knocked over and overheat protection that turns it off if internal components get too hot. A cool-to-the-touch exterior is also crucial for preventing burns, especially in homes with children or pets. Always check for a UL (Underwriters Laboratories) certification mark on the packaging.
How can I determine the best value for my money?
Value isn’t just about the lowest price; it’s about the total cost of ownership, which includes energy efficiency and durability. Look for heaters with adjustable thermostats and multiple heat settings, as this allows you to control energy consumption. A well-built heater with a longer warranty from a reputable brand often provides better long-term value than a cheaper, less reliable model.
Are there specific features to look for in a heater for a bedroom?
For a bedroom, quiet operation is the most important feature, making oil-filled or mica-thermic heaters excellent choices. An adjustable thermostat and a programmable timer are also highly valuable for maintaining a comfortable temperature without running all night. A low-light or ‘no-light’ mode can prevent the heater’s display from disrupting your sleep.
How much does it typically cost to run a space heater?
The cost to run a space heater depends on its wattage and your local electricity rate. A standard 1,500-watt heater running for one hour will use 1.5 kWh of electricity. To calculate the cost, multiply 1.5 by your utility’s rate per kilowatt-hour (kWh), which you can find on your energy bill.
Should I choose a heater with a fan or a fanless model?
Heaters with fans, like ceramic models, circulate heat quickly and are effective for warming an entire room rapidly. However, the fan can be noisy and may stir up dust. Fanless models, such as infrared or oil-filled heaters, operate silently and provide a more gentle, radiant heat, which is better for quiet environments and for people with allergies.
