Top Tips
Safety first
Never leave heaters unattended, especially when children are present. Be careful where you position your heater as there needs to be at least 1 metre of clearance from curtains, furniture and even people. Don't use your heater to warm or dry clothes and keep your clothes rack at least 1 metre from your heater. All homes should have smoke alarms installed. To reduce the risk of heaters being knocked over, do not put them in places that see a lot of movement. Always follow the specific instructions in the user manual. Replace your heater if it has broken parts, makes funny noises or smells. Only use one heater per power outlet to avoid overloading.
Want to save money?
A timer that switches the heater on or off automatically will save you money as leaving heaters on for too long can just be a waste. If your heater doesn't have a timer, then separate timers can be utilised. Thermostats allow the heater to register the room temperature and automatically switch the heater on or off to maintain a comfortable temperature. Nearly all Warehouse heaters come with thermostats. Set the thermostat for healthy indoor temperatures - aim for 18°C to 20°C, and 16°C in bedrooms overnight. Keep the heat in – shut all doors and windows!
