ELECTRIC HEATING, ELECTRIC HEATERS, AND ELECTRIC CENTRAL HEATING

There are three types of general heating options available when it comes to electric heating installation services. The details of each, and the installations needs and process which accompany each, are detailed below.

ELECTRIC CENTRAL HEATING

Electric central heating is a form of heating that heats each room of the home or building with one main, or central, unit. The ductwork in the structure guides the electric heat throughout the building and into each room, evenly dispersing the heat. If you desire a specific room not to be heated you simply close off the vents to that room.

Electric central heating can be efficient and save you money because you can program the heat to disperse at certain times of the day specified by you. This makes tailoring your electric heat use easy and allows you to control your cash flow a bit better. Initial installation costs and the cost of the electric heating unit itself may seem a bit costly, but with regular maintenance and upkeep the unit will indeed pay for itself and give you years of quality service. Have your electric central heating installation and sales company direct you as to the best deal for you and your needs.

BASIC ELECTRIC HEAT & ELECTRIC HEATER USE AND INSTALLATION

ELECTRIC HEAT

Your basic electric heating system is rarely used, simple to install, and while the installation process and products involved may be less expensive than those of electric central heating, these units can consume more power in the end because you must keep the heat for each room concentrated within the room to avoid energy waste. The good thing about this type of electric heating is if you tend to spend the majority of your time in only a couple of rooms during the winter months you can easily shut off the heat in the unused rooms, cutting back greatly on cost. Installation is more tedious than difficult, and maintenance is simple as well, just be sure to have any heating system, including your basic electric heating system, inspected regularly.

ELECTRIC HEATERS

Electric heaters, also known as “space heaters”, are lone units that are powered simply by plugging into an electrical outlet. They are lightweight, the heat level is adjustable, and they are convenient when you are really trying to save on the heating bill. Installation can be done by you, as these electric heaters are typically portable, but beware! Never leave one of these units running unattended, and never sit them in close proximity to anything which could catch fire. You also want to be sure they are sitting firmly in place, not wobbling or demonstrating any unsteadiness. While these units come with a safety mechanism that will shut them off if they tip over this does not always work. The best option is to turn it off when you are not able to be in the room with the unit running.
