Electric heaters provide fast, targeted warmth for homes, offices, workshops, and job sites. From compact ceramic space heaters to oil‑filled radiators and infrared panels, these plug‑in solutions help you zone heat rooms, reduce central heating usage, and cut energy costs.
Popular types:
- Ceramic space heaters: quick heat-up, often with oscillation for even coverage.
- Oil‑filled radiators: steady, silent heating with long heat retention.
- Infrared heaters: radiant warmth that feels like sunshine, ideal for spot heating.
- Panel and baseboard heaters: slim profiles for permanent or semi‑permanent placement.
- Garage and shop heaters: higher wattage models, including 240V units for larger areas.
Key features to compare include adjustable thermostats, digital controls, ECO modes, programmable timers, tip‑over and overheat protection, cool‑touch housings, and quiet fans. For sizing, a common guideline is about 10 watts per square foot in well‑insulated spaces; a 1,500W portable electric heater typically suits rooms up to 150 square feet. Larger or drafty areas may benefit from 3,000–5,000W hardwired units.
Placement matters. Keep heaters level, maintain clearances around intakes and outlets, and avoid damp locations unless the model is bathroom‑rated. Use dedicated wall outlets; many manufacturers advise against extension cords. Clean dust filters and grills regularly to maintain airflow and efficiency.
Shoppers focused on comfort should look for oscillation, remote controls, and multiple heat settings. For noise‑sensitive rooms, oil‑filled radiators or low‑RPM fans are a smart pick. In workshops and garages, prioritize rugged housings, carry handles, and tip‑over switches.
Certified products (UL, ETL) provide added safety assurance. By matching heater type, wattage, and features to your space, you can enjoy efficient spot heating, faster warm‑ups, and lower bills throughout the season. For cost planning, multiply heater watts by hours used and your kWh rate; smart plugs and Wi‑Fi thermostats can track usage and automate schedules for savings.
