Keeping warm and what you should know.

11/23/2018 (Permalink)

1. Don't leave your heater on in an unattended room. This also includes leaving it running while sleeping. Just don't do it, its just not worth the risk. 

2.  Make sure you have at least a 3 foot perimeter around the unit that is clear of clutter. Its easy to move the space heater a little closer for the warmth but doing so causes risk. Keep it away from bedding, curtains, trash, etc. Also don't try to dry your clothes by setting them on the heater. 

3. Watch what you plug your space heater into. Never plug your space heater into a power strip or extension cord. Space heaters pull a lot of power so you always want to plug it directly into the wall. You don't want to plug anything else into that wall outlet due to the power the heater pulls. 

4. Watch the kids and pets. Young children and pets could easily knock over a space heater and cause a fire. It is best to unplug the unit when they are in the area. 

5. Make sure to inspect it, regularly. Space heaters are only used a few months out of the year so before you plug in make sure that the cord is in good condition. Also inspect the whole unit, if something seems off, don't use it. They get moved around so things can come loose or break, make sure you have inspected your unit.
