costing?

Based on a yearly total of £1100.how much would I save if I used 2. 2000 watt calortec heaters
James McCard, December 2009
Calortec 2kW radiator £500

2kW fan heater anything from £11 - £50

Heat output identical - running costs identical

Fan heater probably warms a room a bit quicker

Radiator looks sexier

Probably nothing - most electric heaters are very efficient - much will depend on the efficiency of what you have now.

They are not storage heaters and cool down rapidly when switched off - the advertising appears to be a bit shabby and misleading - they appear to be overly expensive for what they are.
