What this recall means for you
Calculate the per-hour and daily operating cost of space heaters including electric radiant, convection, and oil-filled heaters, plus propane tank heaters.
What to do next
- Keep space heaters at least 3 feet away from flammable materials (curtains, bedding, furniture)
- Never leave a space heater unattended or running while sleeping
- Plug space heaters directly into a wall outlet — do not use extension cords
- Check that the heater has tip-over protection and overheat shutoff features
- For electric heaters, setting the thermostat to 68°F or lower reduces operating hours and cost
- Consider a programmable or smart thermostat to control heater operation automatically
- Compare your electric rate at eia.gov/electricity before selecting a space heating strategy
