Benefits of a Free Standing Electric Heater Heating systems that make use of a combination of conduction and convection to distribute their heat. They are generally more efficient than baseboard heating.  You can also control your energy consumption through programmable temperature and setback settings. Certain models can be controlled using voice commands through smart-home systems.Energy Efficiency Energy efficient electric heaters can save the cost of electricity, but they're not as effective at reducing heating costs as natural gas furnaces. This is due to the fact that energy is lost during production transmission, use and consumption. Electric heaters function by transferring an electric current through a ceramic heating element. The ceramic element is heated up, radiates heat into the room and raises the temperature of the room. This type of heater is effective well in rooms that are airtight and insulated. A heater that uses a fan to move air can cause a lot of heat losses, especially in poorly-insulated rooms. The friction between the air molecules converts some of the electrical power into heat. However, the majority of it is wasted. The most energy efficient heaters utilize the combination of convection and fan to heat the space and circulate the air, increasing efficiency by cutting down on electricity usage by up to 25 percent. Some models have an automatic shut-off function that turns off the heater after a specific time. This prevents overuse and saves energy. Other types of energy-efficient electrical heaters store the heat generated during off-peak hours to cut down on the amount electricity they consume during peak times. They typically cost more than conventional 36" Electric Fireplace Insert with Remote Control heaters, however they are able to pay for themselves by reducing electric bills in just several months. To choose the best electric free standing fire place heater for your needs, take into consideration the size of the room you need to heat and the number of times you intend to use the space. You can start by using an online energy calculator. It will consider the heater's wattage, as well as your energy tariff and give you a rough estimate of the cost. Find the most efficient electric heaters that can be controlled by apps on your smartphone or by voice activation through smart-home devices like Alexa and Google Assistant. These features allow you to easily set up and modify your heating schedule to take advantage of cheaper electricity rates during off-peak hours. Some electric heaters have sleep modes that maintain the temperature of your home at a consistent level which further reduces your energy consumption. Convenience R.W.FLAME 25” Electric Fireplace Stove Heater heaters are efficient and energy efficient. They are a great choice for homes with limited space since they can be freestanding or wall mounted and do not require the installation of new ductwork. They also come with a broad range of controls including temperature as well as low and high power settings and timers. They're usually light and can be moved from room to room easily when needed. These heaters are ideal for those who don't want to invest in a full heating system, but prefer to have something small and portable. There are heaters which look like mini stoves, and work just as fast as an oven. They are particularly useful in annexes, cottages narrow boats, shepherds huts. If you're looking for a traditional heating method There are electric baseboard heaters that operate similar to hydronic heaters, however without the need for ductwork in order to transport hot water. They are extremely efficient due to the fact that they utilize thermal oil heated by an electric current to circulate and heat the space. With less power than fan-style heaters, they can be utilized as a quick solution to warm up the room or kept on throughout the night to maintain a comfortable temperature. Certain models, like the Kelvin Infrared Heater are a little different, in that they use the infrared to heat objects instead of air. This is an extremely efficient method of heating that can be quite quick, especially in draughty rooms. This is why the Kelvin is a great option for those who are conscious of their energy use and prefer an environmentally friendly approach to home heating. It uses a much smaller wattage than fan heaters but can still heat a room in a fraction of the time it takes other non-fan models to achieve this. Herschel Select Panel is a minimalistic electric heater that looks like a slim radiator. It can be mounted on legs to create a sleek freestanding heater. You can even add a mirror to the panel to create a dual-purpose solution that combines two room features in one. Safety While the majority of modern electric heaters are equipped with safety features, they should always be used with caution. They should not be left unattended and kept at least three feet from combustible material. Also it is recommended to plug them directly into the outlet. Plugging them into extension cables or power strips could cause the heaters to overheat, resulting in a fire. Additionally the standing electric heater should never be placed on a damp or wet surface, such as the sink. The vapor created by the heating elements can be toxic and can be inhaled. It is also essential to check the heaters on a regular basis for signs of wear and damage that could cause damage. This is especially crucial in facilities that have children, since a damaged heater could pose a serious risk to their safety. The electrical connections of the electric heater is crucial. If they are damaged or loose, they need to be replaced immediately. It is recommended that a certified electrician install them to ensure the safety of the installation and to ensure that it is done correctly. Non-electric heaters such as natural gas, propane gas, kerosene and wood can produce carbon monoxide (CO) when they are not vented properly. CO poisoning can lead to grave illness or even death in severe cases. It is recommended to utilize a CO detector with these heaters in order to prevent CO poisoning. If you are looking for a way to warm up an outdoor space, consider a patio electric heater. These models feature a wide selection of options for decorative options to match any style, and they are designed to withstand the harshest conditions. You should look for models with a tip-over switch, which will shut off the heater when it's accidentally tipped. It is also a good idea to choose a model with an integrated stand or wheels for easy mobility. A portable heater that is permanently fixed on the wall could be a trip hazard to people walking by. It is also a good idea to let children get close to the heaters since they might be interested in how an electric heater works. Maintenance Electricity is responsible for 44% of the average BC Hydro household's utility bill therefore it is important to lower electricity usage whenever you can. Since the majority of electricity is produced from fossil fuels, utilizing less energy at home can lower your energy bills and your environmental impact. You can cut down on your energy consumption by lowering the temperature in a room or shutting off the heater when not using it. When it's time to install an electric baseboard heater you can complete the majority of the work yourself provided you are able to construct a basic structure. Most homeowners can mount the heater on the wall by themselves. If you're installing multiple units however, you might require the help of an outside contractor. It's usually cheaper to hire an electrician or plumber to install the plumbing and wiring, rather than do it yourself. Follow all installation guidelines, including warnings of potential dangers. It's also a good idea to check the heater's plug or cord often to determine if it's warm to the touch, especially close to the point where it connects to the outlet receptacle in your wall. If it gets hot, stop using it and have a qualified electrician examine the outlet or heater. A hot plug or wall outlet can cause a fire risk and/or failure of the heater.
