https://learnmetrics.com/best-space-...r-large-rooms/

Some people are confused by the different types of heaters. This article has a list of large room space heaters along with their pros and cons. Which one is best is the one that works based upon your home, needs, and how you feel. I would love to have a propane or natural gas wall mounted space heater for emergency backup heat should the electricity goes out (our home has natural gas). We don’t have a living room floor plan that would work well with a radiator heater and wife wants instant heat. We went with the wood case quartz infrared heater with fan. Not powerful enough to heat large room alone without central heat. Allows us to keep central heat low and use the space heater to keep us warm in the living room.

We have a natural gas wall-mounted space heater that works fantastic. The drawback for us is the moisture it makes. Our family room was a porch/sun room when we moved in. It has 11 floor-to-ceiling widows and it is insulated but our windows aren't the best. We converted this to a room that we use as another room in the house. We heat this room with alternate heat sources. For 25 years we have used the gas space heater but I wanted to try something else this year and we got an electric fireplace to use. It has helped the moisture content greatly. But we have the gas space heater for emergencies if the power goes out. This heater will keep the entire house comfortable by itself. It has 3 settings and in all this time we have never used any setting but the lowest.
