Space Heaters FAQ

What is a space heater?

A space heater is a small, gas operated heater installed in a single room and flued to outside. Some are portable to store away in summer while others are fixed in place. They are economical to run and come in a range of sizes and designs, so there’s bound to be one to suit every home.

What is the cheapest way to heat a room?

Using an energy efficient space heater is one of the cheapest ways to heat a room or living space. A gas space heater can have low running costs and provide room-filling heat, making it a highly desirable appliance.

Does a space heater need a flue?

All indoor gas heaters require a flue so that carbon monoxide is vented outside. Burning gas creates this harmful by-product, and a chimney-like flue will remove it from a home, so you don’t breathe it in.
