Baseboard HeaterIf you've ever had a room that is just a little chilly, but didn't want to turn the thermostat up for the whole house, a space heater may be just the answer for you. They are compact and, depending on the type you choose, can heat you and/or the room up to a comfortable temperature.

There are three choices to heat your home: convection, radiant, and combination heaters. Each has it's own special way of heating and they vary in size and heat output. Do you know which one is the best space heater for you?
