Electric radiant heaters and infrared heaters offer some of the most convenient heating options available. With heaters designed to warm up spaces big and small, you can apply heat where and when you need it. This helps you save on energy costs by only warming the rooms you’re using.

There are numerous radiant heaters on the market today, including electric, kerosene and infrared, as well as oil-filled heater options. Use these helpful hints to pick the perfect radiant heater for your space.

What is a Radiant Heater?

Radiant heaters generate heat, and then transfer that heat directly in front of them. These types of heaters are ideal for smaller rooms or in places where you can stay near the heater rather than moving around, like near the bed, couch, or chair.

Unlike convection heaters, radiant heaters do not circulate air to heat up an entire room. This can help avoid drafts and can promote consistent heat levels while it’s on. Because they don’t have to work harder to heat up larger spaces and target their heat nearby, radiant heaters are typically more affordable and energy-efficient when compared to convection heaters.

Choosing the Best Radiant Heater for You

Our assortment of top-rated radiant space heaters includes products from featured brands like Soleil, Remington, Mr. Heater and more. To help you pick the right heater for your space, check for features like:

  • Silent heating operation.
  • Automatic shut-off and overheat protection.
  • Adjustable thermostat for comfort control.
  • Indoor and outdoor compatibility. 
  • 24-hour timer settings.
  • Wall-mount capability.
  • Wheels and comfort grip for easy maneuvering.

Picking the Right Radiant Heater Size 

Our selection of top-rated radiant heaters is available in a range of styles and sizes. Smaller rooms or specific areas within a room may benefit from a 100-square-foot heater, while larger areas may require a heater to warm more than 600 square feet. Although not radiant heaters, forced air heaters are solid portable options that heat larger spaces when you need it.

Check the square footage listed next to each model to determine which option will be able to heat your space. For easy sorting, filter through the heating area options above to narrow down your choices to help you make your pick.

Different Types of Heaters

Our selection of heaters uses a variety of power sources and are designed to operate in different ways. Use this guide to determine which type of heater may be best for your home.

Infrared Heater

Infrared heaters typically use quartz tubes or other tubular heating elements. They work instantly by producing a stream of heating particles. As they are radiant heaters, infrared heaters do not need to heat the air in a room for users to feel the heat. With minimal maintenance requirements, infrared radiant heaters are also incredibly energy efficient.

Electric Radiant Heater

Electric radiant heaters are good for heating a specific area, especially if you are sitting directly in front of the heat source. With an easy-to-find power source that’s also cost-effective, electric heaters come through in a pinch. However, they are not ideal for heating large rooms.

Kerosene Heaters 

As the name implies, a radiant kerosene heater must be filled with kerosene fuel to operate. They provide an excellent portable heating option, with many models generating substantial heat in short amounts of time. Radiant kerosene heaters are also inexpensive, making this a budget-friendly home heating option.

Propane Portable Heater

With improved energy efficiency compared to electric models, propane radiant heaters rely on an affordable and readily available fuel source to operate. Radiant heaters using propane are typically very quiet, provide faster heating and require little day-to-day maintenance.

Oil-Filled Heater

An alternative to radiant or wall heaters, oil-filled heaters effectively function as convection heaters. An internal heating mechanism warms the oil inside the unit, allowing them to slowly heat the air in a room as it passes over the heater. They are not the fastest heating option but are solid choices for keeping an entire room warm for longer periods.

Portable Forced Air Heaters

In addition to radiant heaters, Ace also has a selection of portable forced air heaters. Where radiant heaters are solid choices for concentrating a heat source in one area, forced air heaters allow you to heat larger spaces quickly and efficiently. Forced air heaters have an internal heating element powered by easily accessible fuel sources like propane or kerosene. A built-in fan then forces the warm air out and through the space the heater is in.

And like many radiant heating options, forced air heaters provide a highly affordable home heating solution.
