As an example, if you have the control set at half, the heater will put out 1500 watts half the time and it will be off the remainder of time. This reduces average power use to 750 watts so you save energy. The regulator duty cycle is approximately 30 seconds. Since the heating element does not have a chance to heat up or cool off that fast, the average output feels like a constant 750 watts. Life expectancy of Kalglo heaters can be ten years or more.
Heating elements are field replaceable.
