Other Types of Electric Heaters. If a baseboard heater installation is difficult, impossible, or expensive other types of electric heaters can also do the job. Portable heaters(figure 8-A portable electric room heater)..., whether convection or fan-assisted types, range from 500-to 1500-watt capacity and come in many models, shapes, colours and sizes.

Chaufferette. Autrefois, ce terme désignait une boîte à couvercle percé de trous que l'on remplissait de braises et qu'on déposait par terre pour se chauffer les pieds. On la faisait aussi glisser entre les draps d'un lit pour les réchauffer. En Amérique, le terme s'applique aussi au système de chauffage d'une voiture et à un appareil portatif servant à réchauffer une pièce. La plupart des ouvrages spécialisés n'acceptent pas ces deux derniers sens mais lui préfèrent respectivement «chauffage» et «radiateur». Ainsi, s'il fait trop froid dans une pièce, vous faites fonctionner un radiateur d'appoint, en plus du radiateur intégré au système de chauffage (baseboard heater). 7, record 1, French, - radiateur%20%C3%A9lectrique%20portatif
