CartHere’s How to Warm Up with the Right Space Heater or Fireplace
The right indoor heating can transform your home from cold to cozy. Some rooms or spaces can verge on the chilly side, despite your central heating system. That’s where supplemental heating comes in. Here’s how to keep your family warm and comfy — any time of year — with the right indoor space heater or fireplace for every room in your home.
Types of Indoor Space Heaters
Space heaters offer a way to add extra heating to a room to make it feel cozier or to warm up a space that isn’t being serviced. They range in style, efficiency and design, with options for different room scenarios. Here are some options worth exploring.
Size & Power Considerations
Indoor space heaters come in a range of sizes and wattages. Here’s how to find the right type of heater for your specific needs.
TIP: Multiply the square footage of an area by 10 to calculate the ideal heater wattage. For example, a typical 1500W heater will heat rooms as large as 150 square feet when used as a supplementary heat source.
For Spot Heating
To warm a small, focused area like your home office desk or dorm study area, choose a personal heater. A compact tabletop ceramic heater provides smooth, even heat and is easy to move and store.
For a Small Area
To boost the coziness of a small area, like a reading nook or TV-viewing couch, choose a tower-style ceramic heater or electric-convection heater to direct heat toward you.
For a Full Room
If your goal is the supplemental heating of a room, such as a rec room or living room, look for a powerful infrared heater, wood stove or electric fireplace.
Garage & Workspace Heaters
Need extra warmth for your garage, barn or work site? These heavy-duty options offer power and versatility in unfinished utility rooms and outdoor spaces.
