When you're shopping for energy efficient heaters, it's easy to make mistakes regarding efficiency. For example, you might think it is less expensive to operate a space heater and a large room rather than use your baseboard heating a large room because a space heater is smaller. However, baseboard heating is generally more efficient, so using it will likely save you money

Consumers also wonder whether it's best to have energy efficient heaters for each room rather than central heat. Although central heat can seem more convenient and efficient, it is not because it sends heat to rooms that might be unoccupied.

When shopping for energy efficient heaters, ask your contractor to give you a selection of models to choose from along with fact sheets to help you compare energy usage. Look for a high Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating. The national minimum is 78%, but Energy Star models can exceed 90% AFUE.
