How much electricity does an infrared electric heater use?
People who are considering installing electric infrared heaters are certainly interested in financial issues, which is why the question often arises: how much electricity does an electric infrared heater use? One of the factors that has an impact is the heater's power. For example, devices with a power of 1000W consume about 900-1000W of electricity during an hour of operation, which corresponds to 0.9-1 kWh. The most important thing is therefore the specification and the nominal power provided by the manufacturer. To obtain information on costs, multiply the amount of kWh corresponding to the power of the selected heater by the current price of one kWh.
Is an infrared heater more efficient than an electric heater?
Experts emphasize that using infrared heaters brings many benefits, including reducing electricity bills. A major advantage of infrared heaters is that their operating principle is based on the use of infrared radiation. It is emitted by the device and heats the entire room and the objects in it accordingly. This solution will be appreciated by allergy sufferers, among others, because in order to heat a room with infrared, air movement will not be necessary.
Infrared heaters are usually more efficient than classic electric heaters. This is due to the mechanism of operation - infrared heats the surrounding air directly, by emitting waves, and this requires the use of less electricity than in classic solutions. Achieving the optimal temperature in the room is easier and cheaper.
How to choose an infrared electric heater for a 25m2 room?
Depending on the area of the room to be heated, you can choose radiators with different power. It is very important to choose the right variant, because only then will the heating be effective. To ensure optimal thermal comfort, it is assumed that, for example, 400W radiators will be ideal for a room with a surface area of no more than 8 m2, 700W up to 14m2, and 1000W for an area of up to 20m2.
In larger rooms, it may be necessary to install more powerful devices or two radiators. In case of doubt, it is best to use the help of an installer who will help you optimally plan the installation.
