Anyone Use A Lasko Ceramic Heater Around Their Bird?

[CoachCorrieMac]

It gets cold where I am in the winter and I want to be able to keep the bird warm at night when I go to bed. I have a Lasko Ceramic Oscillating Heater and wanted to know if anyone else uses this type of heater safely to keep their bird warm. I know there is no teflon in Lasko Heaters but I still want to make sure others are using them without a problem. Thanks!

I use the oil filled " radiator " looking ones, once burned off, never had an issue.

Any particular kind or brand you use? Can you take a pic of it?

I posted in the other thread also. I have used the DeLonghi Oil Filled Radiators safely for years.

I had a Lasko in with my Hahn's for a couple of years, and it was just fine, but I wouldn't want to vouch for all models. I have a Honeywell oil-filled radiator type heater in there now...

I also use the oil filled radiators when needed-I think they work great

When the birds are out of their cages I use an old Lasko to augment the central heating (I've had it for years). When they are safely in, then central heat and oil filled radiator heaters. Lasko rep did say not to use it around birds, but i just ordered a backup to my old one. I might not use it. Maybe look into the safe brand @Holiday has. What is it called, Holiday? The one your dad bought for you?

Thanks everyone. Ill head to walmart and get one of those oil filled ones. How long should I let it burn off to safely use it in a room where he sleeps at night?

We leave it on outdoors for two days until the odor dissipates.

Is Honeywell ok? That is the only one I could find at walmart and Shopko.

I have a Honeywell, and it is okay. I don't know if all models are the same, but generally, the radiator-type heaters are safe after the burn-off.
