Are you in Siberia? How old is the unit, how cold is it outside, is your unit sized correctly for the cubic meters of space in your area, and how thick is the insulation in the walls and ceiling of your building? Here in the U.S., I am in West Virginia. My electric central heat / A/C unit is 4 tons in capacity, my unit is 18 years old but I maintain it myself, my house is 170.5 meters squared in floor area with vaulted ceilings and my ceiling insulation is about 30.5 cm thick, my walls are a bit on the thin side but my floors have been stuffed full of blown fiberglass. All in all, we have mostly mild winters here but when the temperatures get to about -6 C.or below for several days at a time, my electric heat would run 24 / 7 to keep the house at 21 C. if I didn't kick on my propane gas logs. I usually keep these in reserve for when the power goes off as my 7 Kw generator won't run that dinosaur consumer of a heater. I tried to say dinosaur k___er but Fixya considers the "K" word to be profane even if the victims have been extinct for 65 million years. Oh well. Anyway, I run the logs off from two 7 kilo propane tanks with gas grill regulators connected to a "T" on the soft copper line leading into the fireplace. I know this wasn't much help but maybe the comparisons gave you something to think about. Good Luck.
