How do ETS heaters work?

During off-peak hours, the ETS unit’s heating elements convert electricity to heat which is stored in high density ceramic bricks. The bricks are surrounded by high efficiency insulation which allows them to hold great amounts of heat for long periods of time. A fan evenly and quietly distributes the heat to your home during higher cost, on-peak hours.

Built-in thermostats allow you to easily maintain a desired temperature.

LPEA offers heaters manufactured in the U.S.A. by the Steffes Corporation

How many ETS heaters do I need in my house?

This depends on your home’s properties such as square feet of rooms, type and amount of insulation, size of windows and types of window coverings, etc.
A La Plata Electric representative will do a “sizing” of your home and a basic heat loss calculation to determine the number and size of ETS heaters necessary to comfortably heat your home.
