Best Electric Space Heaters Buying Guide
There are three main types of electric space heaters: convection, radiant, and baseboard.
Convection heaters work by circulating warm air throughout the room. They are typically more expensive than other types of space heaters, but they are also more effective at heating a large space.
Radiant heaters emit infrared waves that heat objects in the room, rather than the air itself. They are ideal for small spaces because they provide targeted heat.
Baseboard heaters are the most common type of electric space heater. They are less expensive than convection or radiant heaters, but they are not as effective at heating a large space.
When choosing an electric space heater, you should first consider the size of the room you need to heat. Space heaters are rated by the square footage they can effectively heat. For example, a space heater that is rated for 500 square feet will not be as effective in a 1000 square foot room.
You should also consider the features of the space heater. Some space heaters come with timers, remote controls, and other features that can make them more convenient to use.
Finally, you should consider the safety features of the space heater. Look for a space heater with an automatic shut-off feature, as well as a tip-over switch that will turn the heater off if it tips over.
By following these tips, you can find the perfect electric space heater for your needs.
