Space Heater FAQs

It's cold outside, but you don't want to turn on your furnace and heat up the whole house just to warm up one room.

Space heaters are a great way to warm up a specific room without turning on your whole-house heating system. But with all of the different types and models of space heaters available, it can be hard to know which one is right for you.

We've answered the most frequently asked questions about space heaters so that you can choose the perfect model for your needs.

  • It depends on the heater. Some have automatic shut off timers that will turn the heater off after a certain amount of time. If there is no automatic shut off, it is best to unplug the space heater when you are not using it. Look into a space heater's safety features to make sure it's a good fit.

  • There isn't a definitive answer to this question since it depends on a variety of factors, such as the size of your home, the type of heating system you have, and the cost of electricity in your area. However, in general it is usually cheaper to use a space heater than central heat.

    Space heaters are more efficient than central heating systems because they only heat the room where they are located, whereas central heating systems heat the entire house. This means that you can save money on your energy bill by using a space heater instead of central heat.

  • For safety reasons, space heaters should be placed on a level, solid surface where there is nothing combustible nearby. The heater should not be placed in a bed, near curtains, or near other heat-producing appliances.

    For optimal functionality, if you place a space heater below or near a window, it can help reduce cold drafts by heating any cool air that may seep in through said window.

  • Ceramic heaters are a type of electric heater that use ceramic heating elements to generate heat. Ceramic heaters are usually small, portable, and relatively inexpensive. They are popular because they produce very little noise and they can be used to direct heat to a specific area.

    Ceramic heaters work by generating an electric current that passes through the ceramic heating element. This current creates a magnetic field that causes the atoms in the ceramic to move quickly back and forth. This movement of atoms creates heat, which is then released into the surrounding air.
