    Hi,

    Anyone know where I can purchase a storage heater? Need one to heat a room of 28sq metres so if you can also recommend a good one, all the better.

    Thanks in advance.

    if you're fitting one for the first time you may want nightsaver or just for the heater alone a seperate nsh meter is cheaper.also if you want heat late afternoon evening you may want a combi.if its a straight swop it can be a 2.4 or a 3.4 i dont know the heat calculations

    No, it's not a replacement.

    By any chance, do you know of a wholesaler in the Dublin 7 area?

    Thanks

    A reasonable rule of thumb is to allow 150watts per square metre, so you will need 4.2 KW.
    The largest storage heater is 3.4 Kw, you will need 2no 2.5 Kw heaters.

    Hello there,

    Does anyone know where I could find a cover for a storage heater, in Ireland? All of the radiator covers I have found are not deep enough for a storage heater (which is ironic considering that a a storage heater is the ugliest of the lot!). I want to try and avoid buying online, to keep the expense down.

    Thanks for your help!
