Types of Space Heaters

Choosing the right type of space heater for your home involves considering many important factors, from energy efficiency to the desired level of warmth. Here’s a brief description of the various space heaters to help you decide, starting with gas heaters:

• Wall furnaces: Fixed heating solutions that warm rooms efficiently. Wall furnaces are perfect for maximising floor space in busy households.
• Gas log fires: Stylish and efficient, gas log fires provide the look and feel of a traditional log fireplace without the need to collect and store firewood.
• Flued gas heaters: These provide consistent, cost-effective warmth and vent harmful gases outside. Flued heaters are ideal for large rooms and whole-house heating.

As for other heaters, you'll find:

• Electric heaters: Ideal for efficiently heating the entire room. Electric heaters come with safety features like a built-in thermostat and overheat protection.
• Ceramic heaters: Known for providing even, gentle warm air flow, ceramic heaters are ideal for insulated spaces or maintaining comfortable temperatures.
• Radiant and infrared heaters: Radiant heaters (also known as infrared heaters) provide direct, radiant heat to your room. They're ideal for smaller areas or specific spots that require warm air ASAP. These can be powered by gas or electricity.
• Fan and tower heaters: Tower heaters offer powerful air circulation. They quickly heat the whole room and are ideal for spaces needing a fast warm-up.
• Portable heaters: Versatile options that you can take from room to room. They're highly effective for spot heating or drying purposes.

Each type has unique benefits, so you can efficiently warm a whole room with the features that suit your lifestyle.

Space Heater Installation

Safe and correct space heater installation is essential to safe and efficient heating at home. And when it comes to gas space heaters that require more than the simple plug-in-and-switch-on functionality of portable heaters, you'll need a licensed heating and cooling technician. Which is where Metropolitan Air Conditioning comes in.

Professional installation makes a big difference, especially for fixed units like wall furnaces, flued gas heaters and gas log fires. A licensed technician will be able to expertly determine where to install it for optimal air circulation and a maximum spread of even warmth throughout the room. We will also check for insulation and ventilation to make sure fuel-powered heaters are safe and don’t release harmful gases inside.

With professional installation from Metropolitan Air Conditioning, you’ll get reliable, hassle-free warmth from your space heater all winter long.

Space Heater Maintenance

Keeping your space heater maintained is key to efficient and safe operation. It will prolong the natural life of your heater and keep your home warm and your energy bills down during the cooler months. Thankfully, Metropolitan Air Conditioning provides all your essential maintenance and servicing needs for your gas space heater.

Maintenance includes cleaning filters, checking for dust build-up and making sure the heater isn’t overheating. Gas heaters like flued models or gas log fires need professional servicing, including carbon monoxide testing, to make sure fuel burns clean and safe with no leaks or emissions.

If you can't remember the last time you had your space heater serviced, it's been too long. Get in touch with Metropolitan Air Conditioning for expert service and advice, no matter what make or model of space heater you have.

But it can happen, so getting someone in quickly for urgent repairs will get your heater safely and efficiently back in working condition. That's where Metropolitan Air Conditioning comes in.
