question
What sort of running costs can I expect?
answer
Running costs will be dependent on what level of temperature you would like, what level of insulation
you have and for how many hours a day you heat your house.
The electric consumption is very low as our units have been optimised for heating. Long-term
measurements have given a consumption of between 200 W and 400 W.
Let's assume you heat your house for 10 hours a day & for 7 months of the year. If you pay 10p per kWh
you would then pay about £60 for a year's worth of heating.
This compares very favourably with other types of heating. The same amount of spend on electric
underfloor heating will only be sufficient for about 5-10 square metres (a small room).
If you were to use electric storage heaters you would spend 10-20 times as much on your space heating.
Gas central heating is cheaper so 5-15 times. Using oil falls in between.
Without doubt using the Energy Saver is the most efficient and cost effective heating solution on the
market today.
