Are you commonly cold during the winter?

The Bite:
Ah-chyou betcha. Get an energy-saving space heater - it'll warm you up faster than you can catch a communicable disease and will keep you from getting sick over high heating bills.
The Benefits: 
  • Keeping the (planet's) temp from rising. The last two decades were the hottest in 400 years; we can all do our part by using less energy.
  • Saving cold cash. The Department of Energy says 56% of the energy an average home uses goes to heating and cooling. Space heaters use about 14% of the energy that the average central heating system uses.
  • Less petroleum. Many space heaters are oil-filled. Not these.
  • Hitting the spot. You can point these chill-fighters in any direction you like.
Personally Speaking: 
Jen claims Cricket makes the best space heater in the world.
Wanna Try: 

Cocktail Fact

On average, people older than 60 catch less than one cold per year.

Bang For The Bite

If 10,000 Biters use a space heater instead of central heating to heat just one room, in a month we'll save a collective $1,419,400.
