Heater options?

[rwright1000]

Hi guys,

I am installing something to heat a small physio room at a local sports club. Being that It will only be used on certain days for 2-3 hour periods it just needs to be switched on whenever the room is occupied and preferably provide instant heat. My thoughts were to wire a sw fused spur off the existing radial then straight to a wall mounted radiant heater. Room is approx 30m cubed. Any other thoughts or suggestions would be great. Thanks

Radiant heaters take a while to heat a room so for only 2-3 hrs may not be ideal. Maybe a wall-mounted radiant with a fan heater option would be good.

Ok a fan model sounds better, will just have to make sure I use one that's man enough for the space in question. If they were to splash out a bit are there any options for remote controls to change the output level or with a stat?? Cheers again

You don't have to mount it over the door, you could angle it in towards the room.
TLC direct do a Dimplex one with a remote control, but it's a bit more expensive.

Most good quality heaters now have stats and selectable elements. I bought a Delonghi "intelligent" heater a few years ago which anticipated when the temp was getting close to the desired level and automatically reduced the heat output. Was great until it packed up
