We live is a cold country, no doubt about it. So we all need to keep ourselves and our homes warm. For many of us, it takes more than our central heating systems and furnaces. Sometimes we need to heat a specific room or space. Sometimes it’s just the garage or a basement we need to heat.

Whatever it is, here’s 3 heaters that we’ve found that we like.

FOR THE GARAGE

Heat Storm HS-1500-PHX-WIFI Infrared Heater

Garage heaters are a popular device in Canada. In years past the only options were large gas heaters that needed an HVAC professional to install them. They are big, noisy, and expensive to buy. But the new generation of electric heaters offer an easier installation, more versatility, and lower initial costs.

Why We Like It

  • Runs on a regular 110 wall plug; no special wiring needed.
  • Runs on Wifi with schedule and temperature control.
  • It’s safe. The overheat protection helps us sleep at night.

Why It Might Not be Right For You

  • If you need a large space heated, like a garage, it may not be enough.
  • It’s not the cheapest to operate. Consider diesel or gas heaters if you want keep operating costs down.
  • You don’t want to mount it in the wall.

Space Heaters

Sometimes you just want heat. It doesn’t have to be pretty or stylish. Just warm. We get it!

Here are 2 affordable space heaters that you can use to heat that space. One is small and perfect for a small room, the other is dead quiet and ideal for a larger space.

Black & Decker 1,500 Watt Ceramic Space Heater

This little beast puts out a serious amount of heat. It’s simple; 2 dials and none of that high tech app or wifi complexity. Turn it on, turn it up, get to work. Simple & reliable; 2 words that have become synonymous with the Black & Decker brand. It’s also under $50 which fits any budget.

Pelonis Radiator Heater

Radiator heaters aren’t pretty, they kinda remind you of the old heaters from the early 1900s. But oh wow are they effective! This heater is oil based, meaning it is highly energy efficient and the design of it allows it to produce enough heat for most large rooms, and it’s whisper quiet so it’s not a distraction nor will it keep you up at night.
