The Lifesmart Infrared Space Heater is an infrared heater that supplements your house's heating while cutting your utility costs. This heater, much like the infrared heating inside a toaster, is meant to heat objects in the room and provides a more natural warmth that won't dry out the air. Infrared heaters are designed to work in addition to your home's heating system. They are not meant to heat through walls or floors and work best in single insulated rooms or garages. Keep your room cozy without turning up the heat and save yourself some money this winter with the LifeSmart Infrared Space Heater.
