In Los Angeles, the price of Natural Gas tripled, I am using an oil heater, haven't got the bill yet, but I hooked it up to a Kill-A-Watt which is setup to my local KWH rates, doesn't look too bad. Will be cheaper than natural gas, but can only heat up one room at a time.
They are both electric heaters that use 1500 watts and cost the same for electricity costs. They basically put out the same amount of heat. The only major difference is the fan heater puts out heat quickly and is loud. The oil hearer takes around 15 minutes to heat up and are pretty much silent. I prefer the oil filled heater because it's quiet.
@@musicisitall A fan forced electric heater produces heat very quickly and cools down very quickly. The oil filled radiator is putting the same amount of power (max 1500 watts) as the fan heater. The oil one is getting the same amount of power through it. The oil has to be heated first for about 15 minutes and takes around the same time to cool off. They cost basically the same amount of money if they are pulling the same wattage which produces the same amount of heat.
my bill decides what is a better heater. my bill. not your idea's of science... my bill decides.. a - oil-filled-heater-works better cause, the oil stays longer hot.......... so it is cheaper than all the other system. that's a fact. and not theoretical junk .
@@musicisitall Okay, sure. Believe what you want. You cannot argue the science nor the math when you calculate your hydro usage and the heat output. If you like the oil filled one, great. I do too.
You sir don't have a clue about oil heaters, I use one for years and electricity never spiked as before when I used any other kind of heater, and when the oil heats up it can take more than half an hour to start heating up again and in meanwhile the radiator radiates heat strongly.
@@jesuscorrea5513 We run two of the 1500w Pelonis here. about 900sq feet. One at each end of our place. it got down to 6degrees F, and they kept the place really warm. If I turn off the fans, yeah, it cant keep it warm, too much space and no moving air. The fan is key, if you ask me.
They are filled with "Diathermic Oil": These type of heaters use highly refined mineral oils, which evenly fill the outer fins of the radiator as the oil is heated, so even when the heater is turned off, the fins retain heat longer to transfer into the air.
My only issue with the Oil heater is the design, they made it with wheels so that it can be move around easy that's great, but why handle gotta be so damn small!. which means you gotta wait till it cools off or grab something to help you move it so that it doesn't tip over. Also wish the wheels had locks, Anyways i plan to buy more of them incase of an emergency as they are quiet, heats up a whole room with no problem, and won't use up alot of electricity.
You are right, in hindsight we sort of regret not using the real voice :) And at that time, this AI voice was the most advances, right now you can find much better ones :)
go to combi boiler, turn radiator dial down to 55c, this is the peak flow, turn radiator valves to 20c, this is number 3, then use your thermostat to switch heating on only 30 minutes a time, you only need take the chill of the room, i use full gas central heating at 2 units per day meter, that is 2x11x10.34. roughly £2.40 a day, You Can heat your home, for less the £25 per week, paying over 52 weeks, so in credit by winter, people saying they can not heat their homes is nonsense, they need teaching how to use central heating,
Kerosene heater is the best option if you live in a place where you can't put in a wood stove. Also get an electric blanket and wear long johns. I also ĺike to sleep in a sleeping bag and use a zippo hand warmer.

oil stays warm. when a normal heater is of. warmth is gone................... with a oil filled heater it stays for half an hour..... so it's cheaper.

I changed over to oil heaters with a box fan to move the air around. Once the room is warm, shut the fan off if the noise is annoying
I was told to use a fan too. 1500 w Pelonis with a small 10 Inch Fan behind it, warms up a 2 car /laundry garage and its cozy .

Provides great heat in a cold sewing room!

Which covers a wider circumference?
Oil heaters heavy? Most have wheels on them.
they all do.
there are oil heaters with turbo fans built in........... a combined system.
The artificial narration is really off-putting
Good video but couldn’t you have used a real voice, or even a natural sounding AI voice?
You are right, in hindsight we sort of regret not using the real voice :) And at that time, this AI voice was the most advances, right now you can find much better ones :)
@@knowtheflo True... AI voices now are very realistic. Keep up the great work!

They're the same, well were.
If you can't tell me how many amps it takes to start up each one. This video is useless!!
Amps = Voltage / Wattage
Wattage = Amps x Voltage
Voltage = Wattage / Amps
Resistance = Voltage / Amps
@@MikeBCNU You mean Amps = Wattage / Voltage ?
Electric heaters don't last 😪 but I'm okay with it cz they are silent and super hot.
You see
Hello Julia. I am interested if we can use the oil heater in bathroom during the shower 🚿.
Kerosene heater is the best option if you live in a place where you can't put in a wood stove. Also get an electric blanket and wear long johns. I also ĺike to sleep in a sleeping bag and use a zippo hand warmer.
@@astghikmadatyan9188czy można używać w łazience? czy nie maleje się woda pod prysznicem podłogowym?
@@faustynkawarowna8969 I turn on the electric heater for 10 minutes or so, then I turn off and take it out just before shower.
My electric bill doubled when I used an oil filled radiator heater so I had to stop
Afterwards, did you try a different type electric heater? Was your bill lower with a different type?
@@KingdomUploader no I go without
Thanks; i'm in the south so don't have to worry too often.
Interesting. I have two in my basement I leave on and it only adds about $5-$10 per month
@@LV-1969 mine adds $6 per day if used at night.
If your cold wear more clothes.with the price of electricity trying to heat a large room or house is going to triple your energy bill.
