    Room heaters?

    What type of heaters do you use to raise your room temp? I have a small heater we bought but its just not doing the job. I would like my room to stay around 80.

    I have one of those small oil filled radiator types. it is just a suppliment to a baseboard heater. neither of them run on high... I think it works well for me. It is in a basement room that is 25x15, and poorly insulated. And it can get COLD here.

    Re: Room heaters?

    I have not seen a major increase because of that. The electric company says it is because of all of the Christmas lights we run. I don't think I can count 5 strands on or in the whole house. Some years, none.

    Upstairs, I have wood heat. In the basement with the snakes, just the two heaters, and a lot of insulation over the windows and doors.
