Learn the Top Heater Brands on the Market This Fall

Buying any new appliance can be daunting. Which features do you need? How do you get the best value? This is particularly true of heaters because there are so many brands to choose from. Which is the best one for you? Well, here’s our guide to the top three heater brands on the market and what they have to offer.

Factors to Consider

Before comparing different heater brands, you need to know what kind of heater you’re looking for. There are three basic types to choose from: Radiant heaters produce heat within them, which then spreads through the rest of the room. Convection heaters warm the air and then circulate it throughout your home. Finally, combination heaters use both methods, warming the air with radiant heat before circulating it.

There are also safety issues to look at when considering heater brands. An unsafe heater could be a fire hazard or even cause carbon monoxide poisoning. To ensure safety, look for a heater that’s certified by the Underwriters Laboratories, Intertek (ETL), or the Canadian Standards Association.

Choosing the Best Heater Brands

1. Dr. Infrared Heater Portable Space Heater. Not only one of the most effective heaters on the market, it’s also one of the safest, with an automatic shut-off and protection against both overheating and accidental tip-overs. It can also heat the air without drying it out.
2. Cadet Com-Pak Twin. This heater model is installed in the wall, with a vent covering over it to circulate warm air to the room just like a central furnace. It’s quiet, easy to install, and it can heat a large area very quickly. It’s also one of the most energy-efficient brands you can buy.
3. Lasko 5160 Ceramic Tower Heater. Cool to the touch, making it safe for children and pets, this model is also durable and long-lasting. With remote control for easy temperature adjustment, it also oscillates to distribute heat more evenly and can heat a room up to 300 square feet.
