The calculation is based @ 14 cents/kw hour.
The above cost will be significantly reduced if the heating is controlled correctly with a fully programmable control device i.e. a 7 day fully programmable thermostat eg Model TH115-A/F/AF-240D.
Every 1°C reduction in the temperature setting of your thermostat will result in a 10-15% reduction in the power usage over 24 hours. Please be aware that this calculation is only approximate. Actual costs will vary between electricity supply companies. The actual cost will depend on a number of considerations:
- User preferences
- Temperature and switch on time setpoints
- Cost of energy
