Daewoo Oil Filled Radiator, 1000 Watt

Product Information

Start by converting the watts into kilowatts and then multiply by your electricity cost per kWh. You can do this by dividing the watts by 1,000 and then multiplying by the current electricity cost. Despite the name, oil filled radiators do not actually burn oil as fuel. Instead, they store oil in a reservoir, where it retains heat and diffuses it into the room.

You will have to allow for enough time for the heater to warm up before the space reaches a comfortable temperature, maybe 20-30 minutes. Some are equipped with a timer that you can use to preheat the room prior to use. If the heater is equipped with a thermostat, it can be set to switch off when the oil reaches the desired temperature. No, they are cheap to run. They take a long time to heat up, sometimes in excess of 20 minutes, but they maintain heat better than most radiator options and the oil doesn’t need to be replaced. There are a couple of downsides. The 24-hour timer only allows you to set one switch-on and one switch-off a day and if you accidentally unplug it, it will lose your settings. This isn’t the end of the world, but something to bear in mind if features are important to you. The best oil filled radiators offer an array of settings to help you operate the heater safely and efficiently. When choosing your model, look for simple energy-saving features, like remote control, a timer, thermostat, programmability, and others.Oil-filled heaters tend to take longer to heat up than other electrical convection heaters, but keep heating the room longer after they are switched off.

Auto shut-off in case of extreme temperatures is one of the important functions to look out for. Freestanding heaters are particularly susceptible to falling over, and thus a tip-over switch is of particular importance with these kinds of heaters. Tip-over switches only make sense if you decide not to mount your radiator on the wall, so keep this in mind when choosing your model.
