What does a heater cost me?
You can quickly determine how much your heater will cost by multiplying your cost per kWh (on your power bill) by the amount of wattage your heater draws. Then, multiply this by the number of hours you will use your heater in a day/week/month, which is the cost.
Tips to further reduce your energy:
