Space Heater Policy

A new policy for space heater usage at Rider University will be instituted on Dec. 1, 2020.  Anyone who wishes to use or continue using a space heater must initiate a work request with Facilities Management that identifies the location where the space heater is intended to be used. Initiate or generate a SchoolDude work request to have a current space heater inspected for approval. The request should identify the specific location the space heater is intended to be used. Once approved, Facilities will provide a label to be affixed to the space heater. As a reminder, space heaters shall be plugged directly into a wall outlet (not plugged into a surge protector or power strip). After Jan. 1, 2021, any space heaters that have not been inspected by facilities and labeled will be removed to comply with the new policy. If you have questions about the new policy, please contact Facilities Management at ext. 5080.
