If your home has inadequate heating or a poor heat distribution system, consider installing a built-in, vent-free natural gas space heater. That will give a room a constant source of heat providing a warm, safe environment.

Connected to a permanent gas line, these mini-units work just like a home’s full-size gas furnace. They are energy-efficient and solve the problem of the all-too-often cold bathroom or bedroom that’s at the end of the hall. These heaters are ideal for a small room, where space is a premium, because they can be installed on the floor or mounted on the wall. All vent-free heaters certified by the American Gas Association have built-in safety pilot systems to shut off the flames if there is any interruption in the gas supply, or if they detect too little oxygen in the immediate area.
