In the evening, it gets chilly in the living room and in my son's bedroom. I should get a couple of small electric heaters, but there are so many to choose from. By not having to set up your furnace thermostat, a small electric heater can pay back its cost in just a couple of months. I flip it on with my toes. Its design warms my feet quickly and then the heat slowly filters up to warm the entire area.
Quartz elements give fast focused heat while a tiny fan warms the entire room.
For instant heat, select a model with combination halogen and quartz elements. If your bathroom is chilly, choose a special safe bathroom heater. Some designs have a ground circuit interrupter built into the end of the plug. Other bathroom models have a safety shutoff device if it gets wet. The heaters can be placed in either a horizontal or vertical position depending on where you need the most warm air.
