Operation Cost*
To estimate the cost to operate this heater, multiply the watts used by .001 convert into kilowatts
used. Then, multiply the kilowatts used by your local kilowatt electric rate and the length of time you
run the heater. For example, if your electric rate is $.1290**per kilowatt hour and you ran this heater
in constant high mode (1500 watts) for 4 hours, it would cost you $.77 cents to run the heater (1500
watts x 4 hours x .001) x $.1290kwp = $.77 cents).
NOTE: The Low setting does not require as much electricity to operate. It is more energy efficient and
may be a better option if you are concerned about the higher power consumption when the heater is on
the High setting.
*Calculation (Total Wattage x .001) x Cost per Kilowatt Hour = Cost to operate
