Usually power companies charge per unit which is 1kilowatt hour. That is if a gadget is rated 1000 watts and is kept on for 1 hour, the electric company will charge for one unit. In your case they will charge for 4.8 units at the going rate.

Does an electric fireplace raise electric bills much?

Electric Fireplaces are in inexpensive way to heat your home. Typically they are less expensive to operate than gas or electric furnaces. To determine the cost of running your electric fireplace, you would need to know the watts per hour that it uses and times that by your electric companies rate. That would give you a base price, as utility companies add on extra charges. Also, if you run it constantly, it will cost more. I turn mine on first thing in the morning until the house is comfortable then, shut it down til the evening. If it is a particularly cold day, I start on high and then turn it to low, and keep the furnace on 65.

How much hydro does a 4800 watts heater use?

To determine the hydro usage of a 4800-watt heater, you would need to know the length of time the heater is running. For example, if the heater runs for 1 hour, it would use 4.8 kWh (4800 watts x 1 hour = 4800 watt-hours = 4.8 kWh) of electricity. You can calculate the usage by multiplying the wattage of the heater by the number of hours it is in operation.

How can you compute the natural gas consumption of your fireplace?

Turn off all of the gas appliances in the home except for the the fireplace. Watch the gas meter for 60 seconds and record the cubic foot usage, multiply the reading you get times 60 and that is your NG consumption for 1 hour. To convert to btu, multiply the 1 hour reading by 1000 and that #, if the fireplace is set up and burning properly should be the same as the Input rating on the fireplace tag. If you simply want to know how much gas you are using when lit, divide the Input rating on the tag by 1000 and that will tell how much NG you are using per hour in cubic feet.
