I am replacing the switch for my darkness storage space heater. I hold a 20A switch is this sufficient? The storage heater is 2.55kW

Answers: Yep, assuming you are using the biggest furnace of around 3.5KW then the current wouldn't exceed 15amps so a 20A switch is more than modest.
These heaters run at about 11 to 15 amps apiece..It will run theheater , however that isn't much room to run anything else to be precise on that same circuit other than tv's...box fan, and lamps..anything else on this circuit that runs any current at adjectives with it going at matching time will trip the breaker
