A portable baseboard is an easy way to add supplementary heat to any room. The nice advantage of a baseboard is that it's quiet and trouble free. A tip over switch is standard so that if the heater is knocked over, it will shut off automatically. It has built-in thermostat and a 4 ft., 3-wire grounded outlet plug for additional safety. This heater is so rugged that it approved for U.S. government contracts.
