The Best Heating?

Keeping Warm This Winter

(The Best Heaters)






Halogen Heaters

Advantages:

-Cheap To Buy
-Provides Instant Heat
-Directs Heat Towards You
-Provides Light

Disadvantages:

-Unsafe to Run Unattended
-Only Warms a Singular Room
-Not Good for Large, Open Spaces




Halogen Heaters provide instant heat which can be focused towards whoever is using the fire. Halogen Heaters, unlike log fires, do not give off any smoke or fumes meaning that not only are they better for the environment, but they are also safer to use within the home, however, the light can cause the metal front of the heater to warm up quite significantly, this means that if it falls over it could burn or set fire to your flooring. 

Prices of Halogen Heaters can range from anything between £10-£50. Overall they are great for small rooms and apartments but wont provide the amount of heat necessary for bigger rooms.






Fan Heaters

Advantages:

-Portable
-Heat up Quickly
-Fills the Whole Room with Warmth
-Can Be Stored Away Easily

Disadvantages:

-Noisy 
-When the Heater is Turned on Any Dust Which Has Gathered Inside Will Be Dispersed Back Out Into The Room.




Fan Heaters successfully heat enclosed rooms such as an office or bedroom, more quickly than any other heating method and can be slotted easily under desks and in other small spaces, to save room and avoid obstruction. They Can provide a lot of heat in a very short amount of time so not not have to be left on for long lengths of time for you to still feel the heat afterwards. 

Prices of Fan Heaters can range from anything between £10-£400 for the most efficient models (such as Dyson).




Wrapping Up Warm

Advantages:

-Warm in Any/Every Room
-Reduces Energy Bills
-Helps to Conserve Energy and Fuel and Saves the Environment


Disadvantages:

-Inconvenient
-Can be Uncomfortable or Restricting
-Relies on Body Heat Alone


Wrapping up warm is the most cost effective way to keep yourself from getting cold this winter. By putting on a cosy jumper over your clothes when you get into the house and some warm slippers instead of turning on the central heating not only do you save money but you also help to protect the environment by reducing the increasing demand for fossil fuels and energy during the winter time. 

Unlike the other heating methods mentioned in this post, when 'wrapping up warm' the heat comes with you wherever you go throughout the house instead of just staying within the confines of one small room. This means that hopefully you wont have to be trapped in one room with everyone you know and the neighbours cat until you go upstairs and cocoon yourself into your bed covers.



Log Fires

Advantages:

-Can Give Off Lots of Heat
-Feels Homely
-Heat Fills the Room
-Relatively Cheap to Run

Disadvantages:

-Unsafe when Unattended
-Produces Smoke
-Requires Maintenance

Log Fires are the perfect method of heating to use when entertaining guests or relaxing with the family. Not only do they provide a cosy and relaxing atmosphere, but the heat also tends to radiate throughout the room and is not focused on a particular person or spot (unless someone is sitting directly in front of the fire of course). In addition to their cosiness they are also fun to light and burn things on and you can buy many different products that can turn the flames different shades of cool and warm tones.

The only real inconvenience of a log fire is that you constantly have to keep adding coal and logs to the fire to maintain the right level of heat and stop the fire going out. However, with the right wood and coal your fire could possible burn possibly for hours without interference. 





Portable Gas Fires


Advantages:

-Heat Can Be Adjusted
-Can be Run Without Constant Supervision
-Portable
-Safe to Use

Disadvantages:

-Heavy 
-Gas Can Be Expensive to Buy



Portable Gas Fires, though expensive to buy at first, are very much worth the investment. Not can they be the most stylish of the other options, but they can also allow the user a lot more control over how much heat is given out and can be left unattended without putting the owner, or owners property, in any significant danger.


Gas Heater Prices Range from around £80-£500.
