View Full Version : Base board heat (How Do I Know)

Hi,

I just bought a 18 year old house with electric baseboard heat (Yes, I know expensive). The question is how do I know if the elements or heater is working properly or age has reduced effectiveness.

HELP, it's starting to get cold.

this is a good question... as far as i know if its getting hot it is working... and as long as it is getting hot electric heat is the most efficent heat there is.... for every penny you use its all coming in to the house to warm it
