space heater
Portable warming device
A space heater is a portable electric or gas-powered device for warming a room or small area.
Unlike central heating, which serves an entire building, a space heater provides localized warmth: We use a space heater in the basement office.
They range from small ceramic units to larger radiant heaters.
