The Portable Oil Heater -- Ideal for Fall and Winter

When the temperature drops you need a heating solution that is energy efficient and economical. Even if you have a traditional furnace that pumps hot air through your ductwork, you may still require an additional heating solution. A portable oil heater is an ideal choice because these heaters are affordable and have lots of great features. An oil heater is also commonly referred to as a space heater, because these units heat a particular amount of space depending on the size and capacity of the heater.


The average heater of this type looks like a small radiator, constructed from heavy enamel coated steel. The fins are welded shut to avoid leakage, making these heaters safe. Although leaking of oil was an issue when the heaters were first introduced there have been great strides made in the industry. When buying a space heater, make sure it has been marked by UL which stands for Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. This corporation performs rigorous testing on appliances and other consumer goods before declaring them safe for use.

These portable heaters are filled with oil that never needs to be replaced. When you compare this with heaters that do require replacement fuel you will see how much money and hassle you can save. When the heater is plugged in and turned on, the oil inside will begin to heat. You may notice an odd popping or crackling noise which is normal. Once the oil is heated to the right temperature the noise will stop and the heat will radiate from the unit. These units have thermostats that you can adjust to the right setting for your needs.

There are many portable oil heater choices on the market today. Honeywell, Lakewood, DeLonghi and Dayton are a few brand names you may recognize. These heaters range from around $35 and up depending on their size and heating capacity. When shopping check the box to see how many square feet the heater can accommodate. Some heaters are larger than others and thus can heat a larger area. There are all kinds of portable heaters that use oil available online and at top hardware stores and home improvement stores. By comparison shopping you can locate the right heater for your home that fits into your price range.
