Winter & electric heaters

[Curt Sprenger]

Ryan,

I'd pull out one of the electric heaters and fiddle with it. You might find
they can be brought back to life. Keep in mind that they do not put out high
air flow, actually a slight air flow seems about right. Others that have
fiddeled with these heaters will chime in. Good luck.
