You can get this information the same place you get the heaters. You will need to give them information on the size and dimensions for your home.
Answer1 kW is 3,413 BTUs. Therefore, 1500 Watts = 1.5 kW and 1.5 kW x 3413 BTU/kW = 3 413 * 1.5 = 5 119.5 BTUs per hr for a 1500 Watt heaterwhat is the electric cost/

Wiring a baseboard is no different than wiring a plug or light. A simple picture in your mind is this. You have to imagine yourself an electron travelling from the panel along the red wire to the thermostat, thermostat to the heater, heater back to the panel. With that read on. I find making a sketch helpful sometimes if the possible connection become unruly. I will not go into electric panel connection since a licensed electrician should do that. Too much juice there for the faint of heart. a) The wire type is different (red jacket (red & black conductors) instead of basic white (black and white conductors)). b) The breaker in the panel is of the 240v variety (twice as thick as the normal 120v variety). b) Most heating "circuits" are of the 20A variety. What that means is that the 20A breaker, combined with 240V, will allow 4800w (20A x 240v) peak. Rule of thumb is to use 80-85% of allowable wattage. So, that means you can feed up to 4000w of baseboards on 1 20A circuit. This will avoid a breaker jump if they fire full-blast at the same time. This scenario appaers in cottages most often. You are away, come up for the weekend and crank them all up at the same time. Go watch the meter when you do this. You can cut wood at the speed it spins. c) You will have a black, a red, bare ground wire entering the baseboard. Red goes to red, black goes to black, bare copper to frame (usally there is a green colored screw). That's your ground. VERY IMPORTANT to ground the unit. 240v kills real quick. BEFORE YOU MAKE THE CONNECTIONS READ FURTHER FOR THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION Here is where the fun starts: a) If you have a baseboard thermostat, then follow instructions in the thermostat package (which there usually is). The source wiring is as described above. b) If you choose to install a wall mounted thermostat, its a little different for 2 reasons. - If the source wire from the panel comes to the thermostat, then on to the heater you need to wire as follows: [AT THE WALL THERMOSTAT] The black wires from the source and one to the heater are wired together. You are now left with a red from each wire. You wire the thermostats wires to each of the red wires. Bare wires together & to box [AT THE BASEBOARD] ]The wiring at the baseboard is as described above (red to one side, black to the other side, bare to the casing) - If the wire from the electrical panel and the wire from thermostat meet at the heater, different scenario. [AT THE WALL THERMOSTAT] The Thermostat wires are wired to the red & black, at the thermosat. [AT THE BASEBOARD] At the heater connect the reds from the thermostat and source together. Connect the remaining blacks to either side of the basebaord. The bare wires are connected together & to the baseboard casing.
Which ever one you purchased. They are all rated different, if your talking 50gal well most are around 4500watts. But somewhere on the tank or the paper work that you got with the heater,tells you what wattage of the elements is. If you can't find it, you should be able to see who the MFG of the heater is and model#, you can go online to the mfg website and find info on the heater.
I always try to find a spray enamel as close as possible to moulding.
I need some heating in my kitchen but don't have room for a radiator or a wall heater. I have been told I could have electric baseboard heaters fitted but I don't know how effective they are. What web sites could I look at to find out about them?
any hvac supply store (Grainger) ask for a line voltage stat, they have many styles but they are all the basic same
Most plumbing suppliers

If you're in the US contact Jim at Electra Save in Bloomsburg, PA (570) 387-0684 he is the only person I know who can find parts for those heaters.
If it is windy outside, you may be getting just enough of a breeze to blow out the pilot light -even though the covers are shut. My heater is in the garage, and even w/ the garage door shut and the covers on the heater shut, very windy weather can still cause enough of a draft to blow out the pilot. You could try to find something to block drafts around the heater such as a hot water heater blanket.
Like many items you can find a good selection of patio heater covers on Amazon. There are also some on eBay. Alternatively you can also have a look in your local camping and gardening store.
Consumerreports.com is a research website that put reviews and ratings on a different variety of consumer products. I would recommend checking this out for information on baseboard heaters.
