Kero World has been a trusted brand by millions since 1982, offering quality materials and construction, along with a 2-year warranty, making it a standout heater brand. The KW-24G convection style heater is a popular choice, projecting 23,800 BTU's of heat in a 360-degree radius to heat a large area. It is also great for winter power outages and emergency situations, providing both heat and light.

The Kero World portable indoor kerosene heater is perfect for heating small to medium indoor spaces (up to 900 square feet). Its matchless ignition makes it a convenient source of instant heat, without the need for plugging it in. The built-in 1.9-gallon tank offers up to 12 hours of heat, and the manufacturer recommends using only clean kerosene. The heater comes with a two-year warranty.

When choosing a space heater, it is important to consider the different types, power ratings, and fuel sources. Radiant heaters emit infrared radiation that directly warms the objects in front of the heaters, making them suitable for heating small areas. Forced-air heaters use a fan to blow warm air, quickly heating small to medium-sized rooms, but can be noisy. Convection heaters draw cold air from the floor, warm it, and emit it from the top, also suitable for small to medium-sized rooms, but can be noisy as well. Radiators work by heating oil enclosed in a reservoir, gradually heating the surrounding air, making them quiet and effective, but slower to heat a space.

When deciding between an electric or combustion model, consider the need for emergency or larger-area heating. Combustion models, powered by gas or fuel like propane, kerosene, natural gas, or diesel, can provide heat in power outages and cover larger spaces. The fuel type chosen depends on convenience and local availability.

To determine the appropriate heater power, calculate the volume of the space to be heated by multiplying square footage by height, and then multiply that number by 4 if the insulation is poor, 3 if it's average, or 2 if it's good. This will give you a ballpark figure for the BTU needed.

Generally, electric space heaters are more expensive to operate than combustion models. To ensure energy efficiency, a thermostat is a must-have feature, and for radiant heaters, models with a 360-degree heating surface can heat larger spaces. For forced-air heaters, models with ceramic elements tend to be more efficient.

Space heaters can pose a fire hazard, with about 25,000 residential fires every year. To ensure safety, always follow the manufacturer's instructions, fill out the warranty card, and look for features like automatic shutoff switches and adequately enclosed heating elements.

The Kero World KW-24G convection heater offers a 360-degree heating radius, push-to-start ignition, accidental tip-over shut-off, and 8-12 hours of operation on a single tank of fuel, all backed by a 2-year warranty.
