How much electricity does an infrared electric heater consume?

People considering installing infrared electric heaters are certainly interested in financial issues, which is why the question often arises: how much electricity does an infrared electric heater consume? One of the influencing factors is the power of the radiator. For example, devices with a power of 1000 W consume approximately 900-1000 W of electricity per hour of operation, which corresponds to 0.9-1 kWh. Therefore, the most important thing is the specification and the rated power provided by the manufacturer. To obtain information on costs, multiply the amount of kWh corresponding to the power of the selected radiator by the current price of one kWh.

Is an infrared electric heater more efficient than an electric heater?

Heat Decor HD-WAVE CERAMIC ceramic radiator with thermostat Specialists emphasize that using infrared heaters brings many benefits, including reducing electricity costs. The big advantage of infrared heaters is that their principle of operation is based on the use of the properties of infrared radiation. It is emitted by the device and heats the entire room and the objects in it. This is a solution that will be appreciated by, among others: allergy sufferers, because no air movement will be needed to heat the room using infrared.

Typically, infrared heaters are more efficient than classic electric heaters. This is related to the mechanism of action - infrared heats the air around it directly by emitting waves, and this requires the use of less electricity than in classic solutions. Achieving the optimal room temperature is easier and cheaper.

How to choose an infrared electric heater for a 25 m2 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 an area not exceeding 8 m2, 700W for an area of 14 m2, and 1000W for an area of up to 20 m2.

In larger rooms, it may be necessary to install more powerful devices or two radiators. If in doubt, it is best to seek help from an installer who will help you optimally plan the installation.
