JaxandTim Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Firstly, I apologise because I know I'm being lazy by not googling for the answer I got a bit bogged down with all the info! I have 2 rooms 4x3.5 metres, what size/wattage storage heaters would be suitable for this size of room? Thanks for any advice given xx (***Mod Edit - Moved to Consumer Advice & Resources***) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piggywiggie Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Well actually we have storage heaters and we actually like them. They don't cost that much to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaxandTim Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Depends on the house, is it well insulated, double glazing etc, I'd put in 3.4Kw you can always turn them down! We do have double glazing and the walls are well insulated - I'll go on the hunt for the size you've advised Thank you so much for your help.

shetlandpeat Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 There seems to be a bit of a scandal brewing with heating oil. And the price fluctuates according to the profits required.But, the power quoted is about right, the need for correct setting will be the next challenge. And you can get a fixed price or shop around with the Electricity Companies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikel Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 For 14 Msq you would probably be best with a Dimplex cxls12 as it has a wee boost on it but it all depends how well the rooms are insulated. If it's not very well insulated you will need the size up cxls18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
