OT electric space heaters

Yeppers- one in every room. ;-)

Leslie & The Furbabies in MO.

Okay, for those (Doc) who poo-poo the idea that tile floors are just plain cold, let me assure your that I have lived on tile bathroom floors for most of my 50+ years and the floor IS always cold. I have lived places with a good, efficient heater in the bathroom and the floor is STILL cold. The exception, obviously, is in-floor heating. Nice, but pricey and gotta be willing to pull up the floor and put in the wires/whatevers.

Leslie, I have the same problem. Warm shower, cold bathroom even despite having the rest of the house heated to a comfortable temp. We gt one of those little ceramic heaters. I carry it around with me in the winter, turn it on for a few minutes while I'm showering and comfort is maintained. I also use it down in our basement while I sew. Our big electricity use is in winter. Heating bills go way, way up. We can have weeks of 0 F during the winter. So we wear layers all the time. Wool socks and booties in the house. Fleece jackets and vests. And heat the bathroom for the time we need it warm.

(for the curious, we keep the thermostat set around 60F in the winter. Nights it will go a good bit lower)

Good luck, Sunny

Where did I do that? I only disagreed that nothing could be done about it, and in the explanation *agreed* they're cold.

That is radiant heat. Don't always trust spell check!

Spell check worked fine. The only possible confusion I could see would be with *gravity* heat, which usually comes through the floor, but it hasn't been considered "best ever" since the 19th century (when it was)... ;-)
