Cleaning Electric Space Heater: Warning

Do not forget that electric space heaters do need cleaning every few months. This one hasn't been cleaned since we bought it.

PLEASE check your heater. This was as close to a disaster as I would ever want to get.

An air compressor does a nice job of removing the build up.

Thanks,eh?

Brad

Excellent suggestion, Brad! Might want to add your clothes dryer (in house or RV) to that list.....
