Does a portable heater cost more than the central heat in an apartment?
Oct 15, 2007 by Johnny
Just wondering, since winter is approaching, even down here in the south.
I live in a 2 BR apartment which I share with a friend. We were both trying to cut some expenses, therefore we were wondering which costs more, a portable stand heater or the central heat which will heat the whole apartment.
One is based on electricity, the other on natural gas, respectively, right?
How much do those portable heaters cost on average (electricity)?
Thanks in advance.
$28-$240 for a portable heater and the fuel between the two cost about the same now a days, but since the portable heater only heats specific places where you place it you will likely pay less electricity than natural gas.
That being said, the two sources heat differently. The portable heater radiates heat and makes objects warmer, not necessarily the air. Thus when you are sleeping the air your breathe may be a bit chilly causing illness, time off of work, doctor bills, etc. which all need to be accounted for when figuring out the balance sheet. I am not even going to talk about the fire risk that is often associated with these portable heaters too. I suggest you stick with the gas central heat, and insulate the windows to help keep the warm air from escaping.
What is the best portable heater for a basement that is my bed room?
Feb 11, 2008 by blackculinarygirl
I have bought a $10 portable heater for the basement and it would always blow a fuse in my living room. I will note that I am concerned that a heater will blow a fuse again. I am also cautious that something will catch on fire or something. I just want one that is safe, I can leave on all night, and that it will last for a long time. If someone can tell me what kinds to look for or the brand to look for that would be awsome.
I have one of those ones that look like a radiator and it heats my bedroom it has 3 settings 600,900,1500 watts to put out more heat but if your plugging it into a socket that won't send out that much juice it will blow the fuse to. If you have a real cheap heater it might be defective and thats why it's blowing the fuses
