The best convector heaters to warm up your home

By

The mechanics behind a convection heater are simple. It operates with a heating element, which can be electric-, oil-, or water-based that is controlled by an over-temperature control or thermostat that controls how much the element heats and when to shut down to maintain ideal temperature. Find the perfect model for your living space or office with our carefully vetted options.

By relaying in natural air flow instead of forced fanned shafts, convector heaters manage to be one of the quietest solutions to warm up your home. Useful in basements, living rooms, and bedrooms alike, these heaters are to be installed along exterior walls to counter the outside colder temperatures and prevent condensation with a gentle, quiet heat.
