Electric Heaters
Purpose
To provide heat to small spaces (space heaters) or whole houses (baseboard heaters). These are also present in some floors (floor heaters).
Issue
As well as putting forth electric fields from their design, because these units use a fair amount of current, they generate fairly large magnetic fields.
Better Option
When possible, gas, kerosine, propane, or wood are better heating options from an EMF perspective. If you need to use an electric heater, then using a gauss meter to determine the safe working or sleeping distance is best.
