Plasma Tv Heats Up Room

You need to put the heat somewhere else if you don t want it in your room.

Plasma tv heats up room.

The plasmas where i work at do generate a fair amount of heat but nothing out of the ordinary. This is actually a common problem in equipment and computer rooms. Plasma tvs ranging from 42 65 inches use 90w 214w when powered on. Remember in order for the hot air to leave the room an equal amount of cooler air must enter the room.

Having a ceiling fan isn t going to do a whole lot. The e6 and g6 do get hotter than the b6 and c6 due to the picture on glass material and soundbar especially where the power cord is placed just go to a store and touch it and i find it problematic in a room that easily heats up. Plasma tvs do not perform as well at higher altitudes. Still a bit less heat than on a pana plasma though.

So you need to increase the ventilation through the room. Now if you compare a 32 inch lcd tv that uses 50 watts when powered on to that of a 100 watt light bulb you d need two tvs to equal the bulb s output. However i suspect most of the sets won t last that long anyway with faults scrapping the sets before screen aging makes them unuseable. Depends which model you re going for.

Plasma tvs are more vulnerable to burn in of static images. The problem is that the heat is not leaving the room. However this problem diminished over the years due to pixel orbiting and related technologies. It warms the dust in the air and walls of the room.

Actually all light energy from the plasma or any light bulb turns to heat. Plasma tvs generate more heat and use more energy than lcd tvs due to the need to light phosphors to create images. I have a 42 panasonic viera plasma tv. So its basically a psuedo space heater.

The thing emits a lot of heat when it s on. That s a big tv and i m sure its drawing at least a few hundred watts of power. In the winter i don t even need to put the heat on because my tv makes my bedroom warm enough on it s own. As it turns out my tv uses less than 20w a figure i found pretty quickly by looking up my model on the manufacturer s.

The aging method of both lcd and plasma is the reduction of light producing capability so running the backlights higher or your plasma brighter will in theory reduce the life of the display.
