portable heaters

Movable space warmers

Portable heaters are small, movable heating devices designed to warm individual rooms or spaces rather than entire buildings.

They plug into electrical outlets or burn fuel like propane or kerosene, offering supplemental heat where central heating is inadequate or unavailable: We bought a portable heater for the garage.

Safety concerns include fire risk and carbon monoxide from fuel-burning models.
