EDIT- My heating/ac is all electric so i cant do anything about that or gas and i cannot install a heat pump most likely because i rent and probably cant change large aspects like that

I’d like to have two space heaters (one i already have as a floater between bedroom and living room, its a small apartment)

Is it possibly more efficient and cost-saving to keep a minimum temperature to keep the “pipes” from freezing in winter but be able to surgically modulate the temperature using seperate slace heaters like if i stay in either room all day just use that room’s sh to get it comfortable but let the other room just chill at the min temp

    Ideally, you should use a heat pump system to heat the house, if you have one.

    Space heater vs gas heater depends on your electricity vs gas costs, so only youll be able to work that out. But in general, space heaters use quite a bit of energy, so normally it would be best to use them sparingly.
