Oilย Heatersย 

Oil heatersย areย a common column heater style as theyย are great atย providingย long-lasting,ย subtleย heat.ย Oil heatersย are known for their ability toย retainย heat asย theyย relyย on heating up oil inside the finsย for long-lasting warmth.ย An oil heater is alsoย energy-efficientย and a quiet operator,ย making themย idealย for small toย medium-sizedย bedrooms, offices and beyond.ย ย 

ย 

Oil-Freeย Heatersย 

Oil-free heatersย offerย a quick andย radiant warmth likeย oil column heaters.ย However, unlikeย oil heaters, theyย donโ€™tย rely on heated oil for warmth.ย Instead, they use alternative heat exchanges such as aluminium or steel to conduct and spread heat throughout the air. As oil-free heaters are lighter and more portable,ย theyโ€™reย great for moving around the homeย into different rooms.ย ย

Thingsย Toย Consider Whenย Youย Buyย aย Columnย Heaterย

ย 

Room Sizeย 

Oil-free and oil-filled heatersย work best in small to medium rooms where they can warm the space gradually and evenly. If your room size is too big or an open plan,ย you may need a higher-wattageย heatingย modelย or multiple column heatersย to warm up larger rooms. Check the heaterโ€™s wattage or recommended room size to ensure it matches your needs.ย ย 

ย 

Energy Efficiencyย 

Oil column heatersย retainย heat well and continue to radiate warmth after being turned off, which can help reduce running costs.ย Oil-free heatersย alsoย provide quick warmthย as theyย donโ€™tย rely onย oil to warm up.ย Look for features like adjustable thermostatsย orย aย columnย heater withย timers for better control.ย Whetherย youโ€™reย waking up to a chilly morning or winding down for the evening, to keep it even more energy efficient we recommend timing your column heater with your schedule to save even more.ย ย 

ย 

Portability and Flexibilityย 

Consider if you need a stationary heat source for a room, or ifย youโ€™reย looking for something more portable. If you are after a versatile heating solution, we recommend optingย for column heaters with wheels and built-in handles that make them easier to move around the home.ย Our oil heaters and oil-freeย heaterย models areย allย portable and light,ย providing flexibility around roomsย of your home.ย Wheel the heater around from bedroom to home office to enjoy the warmth in any room of your house during winter.ย

Safety Featuresย 

Important safety additionsย in oil heatersย can be especially useful if there are children or pets in the home.ย These canย include tip-over protection, overheat shut-off and cool-touch surfaces.ย Fencing or isolating theย columnย heater can be a method of avoiding mishaps.ย Alternatively, our oil-free heatersย are designed with overheat protection, which automatically turns off the heater when it gets too hot.ย We recommend reviewing the safety instructions on each column heater model toย determineย the right product for your needs.ย ย

Frequently asked questions
How does an oil heater work?

Surprisingly, oil heaters donโ€™t burn oil. They use a sealed internal system. An electric heating element inside the enamel warms the oil inside the fins, and the heat is then radiated out into the room. Because oil holds heat well, the warmth continues even after the heater cycles off, giving you steady, comfortable heating without any fumes or smoke. Be cautious of moving the oil heater around as they are very hot to touch.
Are oil-free and oil heaters energy-efficient?

Yes!ย In the long term, oilย heaters are known for their energy efficiency because the oilย and enamel canย retainย heat long after the element stops running.ย This means the heaterย doesnโ€™tย need to stay on constantly to keep the room warm.ย ย 

ย 

Oil-free heaters are also energy efficient asย theyโ€™reย quick to warm up, being more efficient in short orย mediumย heatingย periods.ย Using features like thermostats andย choosing aย columnย heater withย timers can help youย maintainย a comfortable temperature while managing energy use, especially inย yourย well-insulated rooms.ย 
What room size is an oil heater suitable for?

Size in oil heaters is measured in fins, which are the number of columns per heater. The smallest model is a 5-7fin,and our largest isan11 fin. For compact and small rooms, choose a lightweight and portable design like a 1500-watt5 oil fin heater, that easy to move around. For medium to large rooms, a 2000-watt9-11 oil fin heater is better suited. As oil heaters give off a gentle and consistent heat, itโ€™s important to use oil heaters in rooms that are well-insulated to retain warmth and heat effectively. Visit a Betta store near you to see the sizes that fit your space.ย 
Do oil-free heaters heat a room as well as oil column heaters?

Both column heaters provide gentle radiant warmth, but oil-free models heat the room faster. Oil-filled heaters still provide a gentle radiating warmth after itโ€™s turned off.
