How is 220v water heater rewired to 110v?

Use a transformer to lower from 220 to 110V.


IS there an adapter for a 240V heater that will allow you to plug it into two 110V outlets?

No. Sounds like a fairly hazardous thing to try as well. If it's to use a heater in the US, then buy a US heater at a lower cost than any adaptor that might do the job for you. If it's to use on a UK building site that has 110V but doesn't have 240V, it breaks all the rules because you end up with 240V where you shouldn't.


Can a 2-pole circuit breaker be used for 110V 220V or 440V?

All three, on 110V a split receptacle, on 220V a baseboard heater, on 440V a construction heater or similar resistive load.


How do you wire a 110v supply for 220v heaters?

A 220v heater has two 110v lines coming into it--either two 110v lines with a neutral, like a range, or two 110v lines with no neutral, like a water heater. Unless there's a fan in the system, they only use two wires. It's cheaper that way. If you have a DEDICATED circuit for each 220v heater--one where there's only one thing on the breaker--and you have at least 10/2 wire (unless the amps call for 8/2 or 6/2 wiring, which happens), you can install a two-pole breaker to feed 220v to the heater. If you're just trying to plug the heater into an outlet and get it to work, you've got a problem in that you can't pull 220v out of a 110v outlet no matter how hard you try. Sorry.

Does running the heater in the car burn gas?

No. A car heater gets its heat from the motor and uses no extra gas at all, unlike a car's air conditioner which does use more gas.


How many amperes use an electric heater?

The electric heater will have power rated in Watts. The Amps it will draw depends on the voltage system you are using. Can be calculated by formula I (Amps) = P / V In the USA with 110V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 110 Volts = 21.8 Amps In Australia with a 230 V system a 2400W heater will draw 2400 Watts / 230 Volts = 10.4 Amps
