Sometimes your heating system can’t deliver heat to a room because it’s tucked away behind a wall or down a long hallway. That’s when a convection heater mounted on the wall is a good solution. It might be a chilly bathroom on a winter morning or a drafty bedroom that’s just always too cold. A convection wall heater does the job because it’s a ceramic flat panel unit plugged into a nearby electric outlet that generates heat behind the panel or between the panel and the wall making it an efficient way to naturally distribute the heat throughout the room. When space is at a premium it’s a particularly good solution because it doesn’t take up any floor space.

A homeowner can make the installation for $150, the cost of the unit compared to a handyman doing the job for $278, which includes the heater and its installation.
