What to look for in heaters on sale
From column and panel heaters through to ceramic fan heaters, gas heaters and electric fireplaces, here is what to consider before buying a heater on sale. The heater buying guide covers each format in detail.
Heaters on sale by type
Heater type determines how the appliance generates and distributes warmth, which affects running costs, heat-up time and the room size it can handle effectively.
Column heaters: use oil-filled columns that absorb and radiate heat. Column heaters warm a room gradually and maintain a consistent temperature for extended periods. Well suited to bedrooms and living areas where sustained background warmth is the priority. Run silently with no fan noise.
Panel heaters: wall-mountable electric heaters that distribute warmth across a flat surface. Quieter than fan heaters and suited to bedrooms and sleeping areas where fan noise is undesirable.
Ceramic heaters: use a ceramic element with a fan to distribute warm air quickly. They heat a room faster than column or panel models, making them suited to spaces that need rapid warmth on demand.
Fan heaters: the most compact and portable format, suited to spot heating smaller spaces. High heat output for their size, but generate noise from the fan and are generally less low energy for sustained use than other types.
Gas heaters: produce heat from natural gas or LPG. Gas models deliver strong heat output and are suited to larger living spaces where electric heating would be expensive to run at equivalent output. Require adequate ventilation.
Infrared heaters: heat people and objects directly rather than warming the air. Effective for spot heating and outdoor or semi-outdoor areas where warming the ambient air is not practical.
Electric fireplaces: combine a heater with a visual flame effect, suited to living rooms where the fireplace is also a design feature.
Heater capacity and room size
Heater capacity is measured in watts and determines how much area the unit can heat effectively. Matching capacity to room size is the most practical first step when comparing heaters on sale.
Up to 1,200W: suited to small rooms up to 12 square metres such as bedrooms, studies and small offices.
1,500W to 2,000W: suited to medium rooms up to 20 square metres including standard bedrooms and small living rooms.
2,200W to 2,400W: suited to larger living rooms and open-plan spaces up to 30 square metres.
Gas heaters: measured in megajoules per hour (MJ/h); a 25 MJ/h unit handles a large open-plan living space comfortably.
Key heater features to compare
Running cost is the most important long-term consideration when comparing heaters on sale. An electric heater with a lower purchase price can cost significantly more to run over a winter than a more efficient model at a higher upfront cost.
Key features to compare across heaters on sale:
Thermostat: an adjustable thermostat cycles the heater on and off to maintain the target temperature rather than running at full output continuously, which reduces electricity use.
Timer and programmable settings: allow the heater to turn on before you wake up or arrive home, reducing the time it runs while the room is empty.
Safety features: look for overheat protection and tip-over switches, which automatically cut power if the heater is knocked over or reaches an unsafe temperature.
Oscillation: rotates the heating element or fan to distribute warm air across a wider area rather than directing it in a single direction.
Energy consumption: measured in watts; most portable electric heaters range from 1,200W to 2,400W. Lower wattage settings are typically sufficient for maintaining temperature once the room has warmed.
Wi-Fi connectivity: available on selected premium models; allows remote control and scheduling via a smartphone app.
Wheels and handles: useful on column heaters that move between rooms across the season.

How to buy a heater on sale
Identify the room size in square metres. A guide: a 1,200W heater suits small rooms up to around 15m2, 2,000W to 2,400W suits medium rooms up to 25m2.
Choose heater type: column for sustained background warmth, ceramic or fan for rapid heat-up, panel for quiet bedrooms, gas for large living spaces, infrared for outdoor or semi-outdoor areas.
Check thermostat and timer: both reduce running costs by preventing the heater from running when it does not need to.
Confirm safety features: overheat cut-out and tip-over switch are worth checking, particularly for households with children or pets.
For gas heaters, confirm whether the room has adequate ventilation and whether flued or unflued installation is appropriate.

When to consider buying outside peak sale periods:
When a current model is superseded by a newer release, the previous version typically drops in price
Stock movement events at individual store level can produce localised sales outside the main national sale periods

The Good Guys carries the full range of heater types. Electric fan and ceramic heaters suit small to medium rooms with quick warmth on demand, ideal for bathrooms and home offices. Oil column heaters deliver sustained, consistent warmth for living rooms and bedrooms, with thermostat control for efficient running. Panel heaters suit wall-mounted installation in smaller rooms. Gas heaters provide higher heat output for larger spaces. Outdoor heaters extend entertaining areas into cooler months. Reverse cycle air conditioners provide whole-home heating at the lowest running cost per unit of warmth. See the heater buying guide for a full type-by-type breakdown.
Reverse cycle air conditioners are the most low-energy heating option per unit of warmth because they transfer heat rather than generate it, typically delivering 3 to 4 units of heat per unit of electricity. Among standalone portable heaters, column heaters and low-wattage panel heaters running at 1,000 to 1,500W are generally the most economical for sustained use. Fan heaters produce heat quickly but use more electricity per hour for the same warmth as a thermostat-controlled column heater. See the heater buying guide for energy use comparisons across heater types.
Ceramic fan heaters and standard fan heaters heat a room the fastest due to the combination of rapid element warm-up and forced air distribution. They suit situations where quick warmth on demand is the priority, such as bathrooms or home offices used intermittently. Column and panel heaters take longer to reach operating temperature but maintain more consistent ambient warmth once settled, making them the better choice for sustained living-room or bedroom use. Radiant heaters direct heat at people and objects directly rather than warming the air, useful for outdoor or semi-enclosed spaces. Browse the full heater range for current sale pricing.
An oil column heater running on its thermostat setting is typically one of the more economical portable heater options for sustained winter use. Running a 2,400W column heater at full power costs around 60 to 70 cents per hour at average Australian electricity rates, but a thermostat-controlled model runs at lower average consumption than this once the room reaches the target temperature. For whole-home heating across multiple rooms, a reverse cycle split system is usually cheaper per unit of warmth than running multiple portable heaters simultaneously. The heater buying guide includes a running-cost comparison across heater types.
The Good Guys carries heaters from Fujitsu, Panasonic, Dimplex, De'Longhi, Noirot and Goldair across electric, oil column, panel, ceramic and outdoor formats. Fujitsu and Panasonic dominate the reverse cycle split system category for households wanting full-room heating at low running cost. De'Longhi and Dimplex are widely chosen for oil column heaters with thermostat control. Goldair covers the accessible end with fan and ceramic heaters for spot heating. See the heater buying guide for a full brand-by-brand comparison.
