Electric heaters for large rooms?

My neighbor heats with electric heaters. He is 73 and somewhat eccentric so he wont consider any other type of heat. He has tried several different kinds of heaters including edenpure, electric fireplaces and the like. But nothing seems to keep the apartment warm. I was wondering anyone has any suggestions on what would work. He lives in a one bedroom apartment, that's approximately 900 square feet.


Answer
We use a Lasko floor cyclonic ceramic heater that sits against the wall, it pulls cool air from the floor and blows it out of the top. They operate on 15 amps at 1500 watts and are digital. It's about like adding 2 HVAC vents in a room that before didn't have one.

That should keep the temperature comfortable.

Ceramic is also very safe and warmer to me then any other heater type. They are also safe.

Wal-mart carries them see the link below.

My electric fireplace keeps blowing the fuse box?

It's a charmglow electric fireplace that heats up to 1500 sq ft, the problem is when i plug it in my basement or garage and it will run for about 5-10 min then it blows the fuse or circuit in the basement or garage. why is it doing this? I would like to be able to use it this winter.
When i first bought it, it worked fine anywhere in the house, but how would i go about hardwiring it into the circuit?



Answer
You are probably exceeding the wattage rating for the plug or circuit
that the plug is tied into.My suggestion, find it a permanent home.
Now hardwire it into a circuit all it's own. Make sure the wattage
and the amperage drawn are within the specifications of the
circuit breaker.Now if you are looking for a heater you can move around
consider one of the family safe electric heaters designed for this
kind of service.
