    Hello! What are the approximate costs of heating such a heater set to full power about 12 hours a day?

    2.2 * 12 = 26.4 [kWh]. Multiply that by the kilowatt-hour price in your tariff and the number of days in the month, and you have an approximate cost. ;)

    Well, this is average. For 12 hours of continuous heating to be exact.

    Well, maybe it is average, but it can be treated as an emergency heating. If we calculate the demand for thermal energy in an apartment with several rooms, where the temperature should be decent and stable (e.g. small children), it is already quite expensive.

    If you assume that the heater turns on 50/50 for these 12 hours, the bill will be lower ...

    Why make that assumption? It clearly says:

    These heaters have a thermostat and the "full power" setting does not always mean the highest temperature.
    He uses it himself and despite being set to level 3 (the highest), it works with distinct breaks ... which significantly affects the power consumption (down).

    Hello

    I don't want to start a new topic because I'm with nonsense in principle. I saved a bit of kW "card counter" and I thought that it would be possible to heat up with an electric heater sometimes. Especially since the apartment is great and I can only sit in one room. Therefore, I have two options:

    Oil stove 3kW 13 ribs (without airflow)

    Oil stove 2.5kW 11 ribs with 400W fan

    Both bush companies (N'oveen and Volteno) at the same price. I am worried because apparently this airflow breaks down much faster than the stove itself and I am very dark in such matters (almost 90% of black :) I don't even know if this airflow breaks down, the rest of the stove will continue to heat up.

    Thank you in advance

    Weird those oilers. If it is as high as 3kW, it should have 20 ribs, if not more. 13 ribs, this should be between 1.5 and 2kW.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around estimating the heating costs of a 2200W oil heater when operated at full power for 12 hours daily. Participants calculate the energy consumption as 26.4 kWh (2.2 kW * 12 hours) and suggest multiplying this by the local kilowatt-hour rate to determine monthly costs. Some contributors note that the heater's thermostat may prevent it from running continuously at full power, potentially lowering actual energy consumption. Concerns are raised about the cost-effectiveness of using such heaters for extended periods, especially in larger apartments requiring stable temperatures. Additionally, a user inquires about the reliability of different oil heater models, specifically comparing a 3kW model with 13 ribs and a 2.5kW model with a fan, expressing concerns about the durability of the fan mechanism.
