Skip Nav Bill’s Quality Electric, LLC shares an electrical safety word about the proper purchase and use of portable heaters to help prevent fires and keep you electrically safe. What you buy and where you put your heaters and how long you leave them on can all indicate the presence of an electrical hazard if not handled properly. Stay Electrically Safe and Smart when you use a portable electrical heater this winter! Special Thanks to FEMA for the video: Portable Heater Safety.
