Do you have a room in your house where there always seems to be a chill in the air? Most people choose to solve the problem with a portable electric space heater. But, portables have their drawbacks. They are often unattractive, and take up alot of floor space and may overload an electrical circuit. There are some alternative heating options that you have to warm up a cold room. Every furnace technician has a story about a cold room that was warmed by simply opening a register or two. Before buying an alternative heating system, be sure to check all the vents in the room to ensure they are open. Checking dampers to make sure they are open and not restricting airflow to the rooms that need it. Toe-kick heaters are small heaters with blowers that fit into hollow space under kitchen cabinets, stair treads, and vanities. These are a great alternative and don’t stick out and take up space. An electric wall mounted heater gives you all of the benefits of a portable heater without taking up any floor space. This highly reviewed wall mounted heater includes WiFi so you can control it with your phone. If you happen to be remodeling the flooring in a room that could use some extra warmth, consider installing electric heated floors. They are great for warming up a cold bathroom. Electric fireplaces are also pretty popular. They are designed to mount right on the wall and can provide heating for a room up to 400 square feet. There are many things you can do to ensure you are heating your room efficiently and safely, without breaking the bank or having an eye sore in a beautiful home.
