PostHeaderIcon Baseboard Heaters

Although portable heaters are great for many situations, there are some times when you know that you need a fixed, permanent heater for your bedroom, bathroom or another room in your home. Baseboard heaters are a great solution to this problem, as they combine an excellent source of heat together with an “out of the way” design that makes them an excellent choice for many heating needs. Let’s take a closer look at baseboard heaters, and see what situations they are designed for. We’ll also discuss what you should know before buying a baseboard heater, and talk about installing them as well.

Baseboard Heaters

Baseboard heaters are characterized by their long, short and wide shape. They are designed to lay on the floor against the baseboards in a room. They lay along the wall and only protrude into the room by a couple of inches, making them ideal for smaller rooms without much walking space to spare. They can also be used in bigger rooms where a larger heater would spoil the decor. Their small size and shape allows them to appear hidden and barely noticeable, although they actually remain in plain sight.

These heaters are usually run by means of a baseboard heater thermostat which is either installed on the wall in the same room as the heater or attached directly to the heater. Wall thermostats are more accurate and more convenient, but they are troublesome to install, especially if the walls in your home have already been finished. If you are currently building a home and the walls are not up yet, then that is a great time to install a wall thermostat. Otherwise you’ll end up having to cut into the walls themselves to hide the wiring.

A lot of people often want to know if they can install one thermostat to control all of the baseboard heaters in their house. The answer is that, yes, you could, but that would defeat the purpose of having zonal heating. Zonal heating allows you to only heat the rooms and areas of the house that you are currently using, and having one central thermostat for all of your baseboard heaters would mean that they all operate together, even when some of them are not needed.
