   This 240-volt compact garage heater is the best all-around choice for most spaces, with 7,500 watts of heating power and the option to mount it on the wall or ceiling.

3. Space heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_heater

   Electric space heaters convert electricity into heat through the process of Joule heating. The main component of these heaters is called the heating element. Heating elements come in many different geometries and styles and can be used in either convective or radiant space heaters.

4. Kerosene heater - Wikipedia

   There is also thermostat controlled operation installed in modern kerosene heaters as well. However, most kerosene heaters do not require electricity to operate. Most heaters contain a battery-operated or piezo-electric ignitor to light the heater without the need for matches. If the ignitor should fail the heater can still be lit manually.

7. Electric heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

   The heating element inside every electric heater is an electrical resistor, and works on the principle of Joule heating: an electric current passing through a resistor will convert that electrical energy into heat energy. Most modern electric heating devices use nichrome wire as the active element; the heating element, depicted on the right ...
