Hi:
We're renovating an addition that a previous owner added to the house. Addition size: 19' x 15'. Currently a 9' electric baseboard header is attached to one of the 19' walls, a windowless wall. One of the 15' walls is almost all windows. One large electric baseboard heater seems inefficient to me. I'm looking for suggestions for a more efficient way. A couple ideas might be:
1. reuse the 9' heater, but relocate it under the 15' wall of windows
2. replace the 9' heater with two smaller heaters, one under the windows, and the other along the other 15' wall.
3. any other suggestions?
Thanks!
