Did you know that the average annual cost to heat a house* at 70 degrees is $1,700? It makes good sense to heat only the rooms in which you spend the most time, rather than the whole house. With a portable heater, consumers can save hundreds of dollars annually.

The Manufacturers of Honeywell portable heaters are committed to helping consumers save money this winter season. Their broad line of portable heaters was created to help you stay warm without the winter freeze of heating bills. Portable heaters can supplement your central heating, keep drafty basements or workshops warm and create a personal level of comfort in whatever room you're in. By lowering the temperature in a house by a number of degrees, you can save over $200 in heating costs per year!

FOR EXAMPLE:

Cost to heat an average whole house at 70 degrees F = $1,700

Cost to heat a house at a lower temperature (62 degrees F) = $1,428

Cost to heat a single room to 70 degrees with a portable heater = $59.27**

Cost savings: $1,700 - $1,428 + $59.27 = $213 per year
