For a 100 square foot room, the required Carbontec material will come out to 20 square feet of Carbontec Heating surface. 20 Square feet of Carbontec material consumes electricity at .224 Kilowatts per hour, and at the average electrical retail rate of $0.12 per kilowatt/hour the following expenses can be expected:
- $0.026 per hour
- $0.215 per day*
- $1.505 per week*
- $6.451 per month*
*Operating at 8 hours per day using a programmable thermostat
Carbontec allows for customers to upgrade a room or their entire house with infrared radiant heating without the prerequisite of a major home renovation. Carbontec can be easily installed onto the ceilings, which would save you thousands of dollars in labor and materials. Carbontec also operates at low voltage; so operating costs are minimal especially when using a programmable thermostat. Carbontec gives you the versatility of zone heating which saves you even more money on operating costs
The ceiling heating shows the highest rate of efficiency, which comes to 98% because the Carbontec material only has to go through the applied ceiling plaster and perhaps a textured ceiling finish. The efficiency of the floor heating comes to 60% because any floor radiant heat system has to overcome the floor-covering layer to provide heat into the room.

The efficiency of the floor heating comes to 60% because any floor radiant heat system has to overcome the floor-covering layer to provide heat into the room. Additionally, it isn’t recommended you set your floor temperature above 80 degrees F as it can be harmful to walk on high-temperature flooring. When installed on the ceiling however the maximum temperature reached can be much higher allowing for the room to be warmed up faster.
