Portable heaters are the traditional means of heating small spaces; however, they now come in a variety of new style options and offer many safety features, mitigating their hazardous past. With soaring energy bills during the winter, families already struggling with the recession are looking to new options to heat their homes and reduce their energy costs. Using portable electric heaters allows you to significantly reduce your bill by heating the small spaces with the highest traffic that need it the most that are either missed by central heat or forgo the necessity of raising the temperature or turning on the furnace at all. They are a great eco-friendly option for the environmentally conscious, providing a “green” way to heat your house.

Portable electric heaters are both inexpensive and can be moved from room to room, providing heat wherever it is needed, and allowing them to be stored out of the way during the summer. Whether you are looking for an oscillating heater to provide heat across a room or a portable baseboard heater to stay unobtrusive and save space, there is an option and style to fit everyone. They require no installation, allowing you to simply plug them in to any standard outlet, making them a simple headache-free addition to your home.

Portable heaters come in both traditional styles and new, more elaborate and elegant styles like the Dimplex DMCS13R Mini Cube Electric Fireplace with a glossy red design and a realistic flame-like effect and the Dimplex DCS19W Cube Electric Fireplace in modern, sleek, white design featuring Dimplex’s patented flame-like appearance. The heaters have become much more advanced, with new features like remote operation and air purification, purifying airborne particulates and allergens with an electrostatic filtration system on models like the American Comfort CF1500XP-UV Infrared Space Heater.

Choosing a heater also depends on the type of space you want to heat; ceramic heaters are ideal for personal spaces, offices, and bedrooms, heating 150 square feet of space, oil-filled radiators are spot heaters that are quiet and economical, warming the objects near them, micathermic heaters are perfect for allergy suffers, not re-circulating the dust particles it takes in, and radiant and quartz heaters are spot heaters that intensely heat the objects in their vicinity.
