Buying Guide
FAQs
What type of space heater is best for my needs?
The best type depends on your room size and heating goals. Ceramic heaters are great for quick, personal warmth in small spaces, while infrared heaters are ideal for silently heating objects and people in medium-sized rooms. For heating an entire large room, an oil-filled radiator provides steady, long-lasting warmth.
How do I choose the right size heater for a room?
Look at the heater’s wattage to determine its effective heating area. A general rule is to use about 10 watts of heating power for every square foot of room space, so a 1500-watt heater is suitable for a 150-square-foot room. Always check the manufacturer’s recommendation for the specific model.
What safety features should I prioritize?
For safety, always choose a heater with an automatic shut-off feature that activates if it tips over. Overheat protection is also crucial, as it will turn the unit off if its internal components get too hot. Additionally, look for heaters with a cool-touch exterior and a sturdy, non-tip base to prevent accidents.
How much does it cost to run a space heater?
The cost to run a space heater depends on its wattage and your local electricity rate. Most full-sized heaters run at 1500 watts, so running one for an hour consumes 1.5 kilowatt-hours (kWh). Look for energy-efficient models with programmable timers and eco modes to help reduce overall energy consumption and cost.
What is the difference between ceramic and infrared heaters?
Ceramic heaters use a ceramic plate to heat air, which is then blown into the room by a fan, making them great for warming small spaces quickly. Infrared heaters use electromagnetic radiation to directly warm objects and people in their path, offering silent and more targeted heating without drying out the air.
Are oil-filled radiators more efficient than other heaters?
Oil-filled radiators are highly efficient for maintaining a constant temperature in a room over a long period. Once the oil is heated, the radiator can continue to radiate warmth even after turning off, using less energy to maintain its heat. While they are slower to warm up initially, they are excellent for all-day, steady heating.
What features add the most value to a space heater?
Features that add significant value include a programmable thermostat for maintaining your desired temperature and a timer for automated on/off scheduling. A remote control and multiple heat settings offer convenient customization. For larger areas, an oscillation feature helps distribute heat more evenly throughout the room.
