Your Complete Guide to the Most Efficient, Effective Heater
Are you looking for an efficient and effective heater to keep you warm this winter?
With the weather gradually turning chilly, it might be time to consider investing good-quality heater. The right heater is one that’s cost-effective, helps offset your winter utility bill, and can warm up the room efficiently. Finding the right heater is an art, but we’ve given you some tips to simplify the selection process.
- 1. Get your room dimensions right
One of the biggest mistakes we’ve seen buyers make is purchasing heaters without having done any prior measurements of the room in which they are buying the heater for. There’s little point in purchasing a great heater model that doesn’t properly warm the room. Therefore, take this first step seriously.
- 2. Choose between the heater types
Here at The BBQ Store we offer a range of the leading heater types – convection heaters, radiant heaters, and portable gas heaters.
(a) Convection heaters
Convection heaters are great in that they allow an even heat distribution in medium-to-large rooms. Models such as the Everdure Brigadier Natural Gas Radiant Convection Heater, and the Bromic Supaheat II Room Heater are all worthy of consideration.

Everdure's range of convection heaters are the perfect heating choice. With such a long history of product reliability in the market, you can't go wrong with an Everdure Brigadier
(b) Radiant heaters
Radiant heaters such as the Heatstrip Classic Radiant Heater are ideal for small, intimate spaces, as they have the capacity to heat up rooms quickly, with some models like the Gasmate Solaris Deluxe Ceramic Heater being ideal for outdoor use.

- 3. Find out the heater’s safety features
This point cannot be overemphasised enough. Knowing a potential heater’s safety features is especially important if you have children, and or pets in the house. Standard safety features that should be included in the heater you opt for include:
- Cool-to-the-touch surfaces
- Emergency internal automatic switch-off functionality
- Overheat protection.
These are by no means all the safety features to look out for, but they point you in the right direction when browsing through different models.
- 4. Consider the heater’s noise level
If you live in an apartment or a dual occupancy dwelling, the heater’s noise level is definitely a factor you’ll need to consider prior to making your purchase. Before buying, spend time talking to the in-store salespeople and asking questions about the relative noise levels of each of the heater models you’re interested in. Radiant heaters such as Heatstrip Classic Radiant Electric Heaters are fantastic options if you’re looking for quiet heaters for office spaces and bedrooms.
