These 3 heaters would require 12/2 wire and a 20 Amp 2-Pole breaker if they were to all be placed on the same circuit. If more heaters are needed either run a new circuit or increase the wire and breaker size to accommodate the load.)5.hese 3 heaters would require 12/2 wire and a 20 Amp 2-Pole breaker if they were to all be placed on the same circuit.

Ceiling fans help cool a room by moving air which causes evaporative cooling. Fans range in size from 36 inches to 56 inches using 55 to 100 watts, a typical 48 inch ceiling fan will use 75 watts. Click calculate to find the energy consumption of a 48 inch ceiling fan using 75 Watts for 3 hours a day @ $0.10 per kWh. Hours Used Per Day: Enter how many hours the device is being used on average per day, if the power consumption is lower than 1 hour per day enter as a decimal. (For example: 30 minutes per day is 0.5)
To continue the earlier example of the window fan, if energy costs 17 cents/kWh in your area, running the fan as estimated earlier for one year will cost you approximately 1.25 (kWh per day) * 365 (days--the time period) * .17 (cost of energy/kWh) = about $77.56 per year if you use the fan every day.
