Energy expert shares heater cost formula
The article provides detailed calculations and estimates regarding the cost of home heating in Jordan during the winter season, with a focus on the use of gas and kerosene heaters. Energy expert Hashem Aqul explained that a medium-sized gas heater consumes between 0.2 and 0.4 kilograms of gas per hour, which is enough to run a standard cylinder (12.5 kg) for approximately 30 to 60 hours, costing about 7 Jordanian dinars. This translates to roughly 1.75 dinars per day when operating for 6 to 8 hours daily. As for kerosene heaters, they burn approximately 0.3 to 0.5 liters per hour, with operating costs of around 1.65 dinars for six hours a day, based on a 20-liter tank costing about 11 dinars. The analysis shows that the daily operating costs of both options are quite similar, allowing consumers to choose based on the efficiency of heat distribution within the home. The article aims to raise awareness among Jordanian families before the cold season and provides approximate formulas to help them estimate their home heating expenses.
