For guest bedrooms or workspaces, energy efficient portable heaters allow you to heat certain rooms or areas without affecting the temperature of the rest of the house. They also provide an alternative to costly or inadequate heating systems.

Energy efficient portable heaters come in a variety of choices to fit your needs.
Space heaters can use common fuels such as propane, natural gas and kerosene as well as electricity. Some portable heaters rely on the circulation of the air in a room (convection) in order to heat a room. However, other heaters rely on radiant heating. Radiant heating is the infrared radiation emitted which heats up objects and the people within the line of site. If heating a room for only a few hours, radiant heaters are more efficient.

Energy efficient portable heaters can also be vented or “vent free.” Vent free units are not recommended for use inside your home because they allow unwanted combustion products into the air (such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxides, and water vapor). Vented units, however, can be permanently located next to an outside wall providing a safe release area for combustion products. When purchasing a vented unit, look for “sealed combustion” or “100% outdoor air” units. Electric space heaters are the only vent-free heater that is still safe to operate in your house.
