hello can anyone suggest where to buy a good heater for the house? We're planning to put it in our bedroom. And if there's a good brand you know, pls feel free to suggest. thanks.
Don't leave fan heaters on when you leave the house, they can easily burn the outlet, we have had this happen. You could come home to find your home on fire. We also turn off the oil heaters when out of the house. The person that wrote not to use oil heaters can he suggest a site where to find info regarding the carbon monoxide poisoning? How can these be for sale if this is true.
Don't waste money to buy any Geepas product, one of my friend believe that some chinees electrical product (Including all Geepas product) are even expensive if someone giving you free.
IKON Fan heater available in LULU HYPER is good, i am using since November 15.(By the way i have no commission on said product purchase)
I've had the heater about 2 weeks now. So far so good. To tell you the truth they only had 2 types of heaters and with small kids I settled for the fan instead of the other ones that get real hot in the front.
LOL, Got it. Main circuit breaker for the house is going to be off in about 10 minutes. I got to shutdown my electronics first. Thank you for your information
Try these tables if you really want an accurate answer. Rule of thumb would be 12-14 AWG for normal household outlets up to 30 amp and reasonable length. The problem you will find here is not the size of the conductor but the pissy quality of the conductor, poor insulation, and terrible terminations. Of these all you can typically fix is the terminations if you are comfortable stripping wire. Please don't electrocute yourself. They have plenty of 'electricians' here who will work hot circuits and kill themselves for a measly fee.
LOL... of course it could be because we make asinine comments that make us sad? Or phaps bcuz we dont worry a gr8 deal about it? or just pushing buttons of course
Just buy a new replacement plug and repair the existing cord. Next step is to make sure the outlet is installed properly and then verify the rating on the breaker. Don't trust the wiring in the house until you pull the wall plate and check the wire size and termination. Not the best electrical work is being done in the new construction, always verify.
I just blew a circuit breaker in the house. It did burn, the receptacle male plug from the heater, real bad completely. There goes my 250 qr. I got to go, to buy from the hardware-house an identical plug. Later guys.
I do not know what styles are available, however the stand alone ones that look like old radiators are sealed steam heaters and you can also buy the small electric heaters in which you can physically see the coils and they blow air via a fan across the coils.
Personally you should just have a warm body to curl up with. If it is too cold for one get a second and snuggle up. Skin on skin is the best way to stay warm and transfer body heat.
A 3 dog night is darn cold but on that same evening a one woman night may cause perspiration.
Good info tyler the first thing that came to mind for me was to plug the heater directly into the wall because the extension cords/plugs cannot handle the power and will burn out or cause a fire!!
Tyler which ones are the kerosene/oil heaters?? we have these electric heaters which look like the european water/steam heaters but i dont know whats inside them?
do not use kerosene or oil heaters in your home. carbon monoxide is the number one winter killer. Also if you use any space heater keep all drapes and linens a minimum of 3 feet away on all sides.
never plug a space heater into a power strip, only directly into the wll to prevent high current draw from melting insulation and starting a fire,
These things are dangerous even with proper precautions so at least read the warnings and heed them.

Tyler: any brand you can suggest?
pwb78: how long have you been using that GEEPAS heater?
Im hesitant to buy it cause we bought a juicer w/ that brand at carrefour, and the minute we tried it, it didn't work.

I bought a fan heater at Carrefour and it's been working fine. Cuts on and off when the temp reaches the setting you put it on. GEEPAS Fan Heater.
