Things we love about winter: Hot cocoa, cozy sweaters and all the Netflix. But our least favorite part of the season? The cold. And even if you manage to stay blizzard-free this year, you’re still not safe from drafty windows, open doors and just plain old bad insulation. Fortunately, there’s an easy fix for nippy rooms: space heaters.
Traditionally, space heaters haven’t been the most aesthetically pleasing. They’re usually bulky, noisy and, um, also kind of scary (space heaters cause 43 percent of all home heating fires, per the National Fire Protection Association). One company has set out to change all that. At first glance, Invroheat looks like your standard wall art. Step closer and you still might not notice anything different about it. But it’s actually a space heater that uses built-in infrared technology to help heat up your space.
This innovative heater/poster is completely silent, energy efficient (it starts warming the room in just 30 seconds) and safe to touch (because kids just love to put their hands all over everything). Another cool safety feature? The auto shutoff prevents overheating.
According to the brand, using the device can save you up to 60 percent on your heating bill since you’re only heating the room you’re in rather than the entire home. And when it comes to how much space you’ll save with this guy compared to a traditional space heater, the canvas measures 40 by 22 inches, so, you know, not too shabby.
