About Electric Space Heaters

When your home’s central heating system just won’t cut it, leaving you bundled in layers of sweaters, scarves, and gloves, don’t just shiver and hope spring comes early this year. Instead, invest in a quality electric space heater. Space heaters are an excellent solution for warming up individual rooms without cranking the thermostat to heat an entire home — electric heaters can be a temporary solution for an under-performing or damaged heater or a convenient supplement to your existing heating system.

If your furnace breaks down, a small, portable electric heater will help you stay warm until repairs are complete. Or use electric space heaters and compact furnaces to reduce your home’s overall heating bill. You can also use a single-zone heater to provide comfort wherever you happen to be.

No matter what type of heating you need this season, the electric space heaters for sale at Ingrams Water & Air are lightweight and powerful enough to provide a toasty, comfortable atmosphere.

What Are Electric Space Heaters and How Do They Work?

A space heater is a small, portable indoor heating fixture designed to warm a single space. Electric space heaters produce hot air that rises to the ceiling, causing cooler air to fall to the floor, creating air circulation. Space heaters are an efficient method for focusing heat where you need it versus constantly running a central heating system at full blast and heating unoccupied spaces.

Also known as a radiant wall mount furnace or a convection space heater, electric space heaters heat spaces more quickly than a heat pump. While most electric space heaters provide heat using electrically heated wire coils, some electric space heaters transfer liquid like oil or water that is heated by an electric element. An internal fan blows the air across the heated fluids, circulating the warmed air through the space and raising the temperature in a room. The heated fluid offers a bit of heated storage, allowing the electric heater to cycle less and provide a constant heat source.

Are There Benefits to Using Electric Space Heaters?

If you have one or more areas of your home that just won’t get warm, an electric space heater is a great way to quickly raise the temperature without wasting energy by pushing the central heating system to deliver heat where it’s not needed.

The main advantages of using electric space heaters are:

• Lowered energy costs
• Improved energy efficiency
• Portable heat source
• Quick and versatile heating capabilities
• Easy to use
