A baseboard heater operates quietly at the base of a wall,  circulating air through means of convection to produce heat. They are  excellent for room additions and areas of your home that are frequently  used so you don’t have to waste energy heating portions of your home  that you rarely visit. This type of heater operates silently because  there is no fan. Installing this type of appliance typically requires  some sort of wiring work, so you should leave this type of job to a  professional.Some of the benefits of having an electric baseboard heater in your home include:They are easy to maintain – You basically only need to vacuum  your baseboard heater on a regular basis to minimize the build up of  dust. While these are sturdy appliances that rarely need repairs, you  should still call a technician should a problem arise.They keep a low profile – An electric baseboard heater takes  up very little room. The design of this appliance makes it barely  noticeable, and, as stated before, the lack of a fan means it operates  silently.They help you save energy – If you spend most of your time in  one room during the day, a baseboard heater will keep you warm without  you having to waste money heating other areas of your home. The typical  baseboard heater can warm an area of about 150 square feet while only  using 1,500 watts of energy. If you’re in a larger room most of the  time, you can still heat that space economically and efficiently by  using multiple units.

Baseboard heaters are generally safe, but you still want to make sure  you’re careful when you, your children or your pets are around them.  Baseboard heater covers will protect you and your loved ones from the  hottest tubes, and those covers are standard in most models. This type  of heater is typically mounted on a wall, but freestanding models have  built-in safety features, such as a shut-off feature if the unit tips  over.As long as you make sure your baseboard heater is properly installed,  has safety covers, is not located below any electrical outlets, is not  near any drapes and doesn’t touch the floor, you can be assured of safe  operation.Call Nick Electric today  if you would like more information or you need us to install your new  electric baseboard heater at 608-574-8769 or email at  NICKELECTRIC@CHARTER.NET
