Cost-Effectively Heat Up Any Room in Your Home with a Low-Profile Baseboard Heater

How do Electric Baseboard Heaters work? Electric baseboard heaters use convection to circulate the air the heating element heats the air, and as the hot air rises from the baseboard heater, this forces the colder air to the bottom of the room, allowing the baseboard heater to draw the cold air that has been pushed down by the warmed air. The process of convection will repeat the process until the thermostat controlling the heater reaches the set temperature. Most of our electric baseboard heaters range from 500 watts to 1500 watts in power, and that translates roughly to about 50 to 150 of square heating footage. It never hurts to get a little more power than what you think you need but be careful if you run other electronics on the same circuit because it might trip the breaker. Baseboard heaters are easy to maintain. The heating element inside electric baseboard heaters have no moving parts, and therefore need very little maintenance. Upkeep of the unit requires minor cleaning consisting of removing the dust and lint from the grill of the heater and keeping things away from the intake at the bottom of the unit.
