Five Tips for Buying a Heater
Choosing a space heater is a matter of sifting through a bewildering array of types, power ratings, and fuel sources. Let's break it down a little to make the process easier.
What are the different types of space heaters?
- Radiant heaters emit infrared radiation that directly warms the objects in front of the heaters (rather than the surrounding air). If you only need heat by a desk or in a small section of a room, a radiant heater is quiet and will use very little power.
- Forced-air heaters use a fan to blow air that has been warmed by metal or ceramic heating elements. A forced-air heater is appropriate for quickly heating up a small- to medium-sized room, but can be noisy.
- Convection heaters draw cold air from the floor; the air is warmed by heating coils and emitted from the top of the heater. A convection heater is appropriate for quickly heating up a small- to medium-sized room, but also can be noisy.
- Radiators work by heating oil enclosed in a reservoir, gradually heating the surrounding air. If heating speed isn't an issue, you might want to opt for a radiator. These are extremely quiet and effective--perfect for bedrooms.
Should I buy an electric or a combustion model?
If you want a heater that will be available in emergencies, or that can heat areas larger than a single room, choose a "combustion" model--one that is powered by a gas or fuel like propane, kerosene, natural gas, or diesel. Which fuel type you choose depends largely on convenience and local availability. For example, diesel would be appropriate for a heater you take with you on long car trips.
How powerful a heater do I need?
Heaters are rated by BTU, which stands for British Thermal Unit (the amount of heat needed to heat one pound of water by 1 degree F). To find out how many BTU you need:
- Calculate the volume of the space to be heated by multiplying square footage by height.
- Multiply that number by 4 if your insulation is poor, 3 if it's average, or 2 if it's good.
Do space heaters cost a lot to operate?
As a general rule, electric space heaters are more expensive to use than combustion models. To ensure energy efficiency, a thermostat is a must-have feature for any heater. For radiant heaters, models with a 360 degree heating surface can heat larger spaces. If you need a forced-air heater, models with ceramic elements tend to be more efficient.
Are space heaters a fire hazard?
Space heaters are implicated in about 25,000 residential fires every year. To ensure proper safety, always follow the manufacturer's usage instructions and fill out the warranty card to receive informational updates from the manufacturer. Also, look for extra safety features such as an automatic shutoff switch that can shut down the unit if, for example, it gets upended. In addition, choose a model where the heating element is adequately enclosed within the unit.

Air King 8132 Oscillating Ceramic Heater with Programmable Thermostat, 7-hour Timer and Remote Control Reviews
| 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful:  Excellent, By Spectator51 (Seattle) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This heater works very well. I don't need a "fan only" setting in the winter (see previous review). Anyway, I bought it for an uninsulated attic bedroom about 16x12. Keeps the room warm, runs quietly, and doesn't have a noticeable effect on the electric bill. The remote control adds to the convenience. If you buy something else, be sure it has remote. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:  Not programmable as described, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Air King 8132 Oscillating Ceramic Heater with Programmable Thermostat, 7-hour Timer and Remote Control (Kitchen) The description "includes a programmable thermostat with a 7-hour timer, allowing you to pre-set room temperatures for different times of day" is not true. This product is no different than other heaters that have a simple thermostat and a simple timer. You cannot "program" temperatures for different times of day. It doesn't even have a clock! No different than a Lasko which is much cheaper. I bought it to turn on daily at 5AM - returned - disappointed! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:  Nice heater with a couple warts!, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Air King 8132 Oscillating Ceramic Heater with Programmable Thermostat, 7-hour Timer and Remote Control (Kitchen) Overall a decent compact heater. The good: Puts out quite a bit of heat. Timer from 1 to 7 hours in hour increments. The oscillate feature lets you distribute heat to more than one room. Quiet. Thermostat handy and works as expected. Remote a nice convenience. The bad: A power failure leaves ti turned off, not suitable for untended operation. Setting the heater to low sets the thermostat to max. Power on gets you the High Max settings not where you left it. Timer only turns the heater off; it could just as easily toggle it; that is if its set when the heater is off it turns it on, if the heater is on when it is set it turns it off. The ugly: The remote icons aren't terribly obvious. It counts in binary octal. e.g. the timer goes 1,2,4 so you get all the numbers with 8 button pushes, but if you mess up you have to start over. An OK heater for the money, the thermostat... Read more |
