We're having trouble heating our conservatory in a cost-effective manner.
When we bought the house, the conservatory had two Dimplex heaters, and these seemed to do the job really well, but they cost a small fortune to run all winter, so we bought two 400W flat panel heaters which can be painted to match the decor. We find these to be woefully inadequate, and recently, in the cold weather, I brought in a large electrical oil filled radiator from my garage, and that just about keeps the chill off the place.
The Conservatory is 19'x9' victorian style, which goes up to a peak(pitched roof). It's made of UPVC, and the roof is plastic too, although the glass is all double-glazed units.
We want to use this as our dining room, but it's just too cold at the moment. Can anybody suggest a cost-effective way of heating this space? (Adding a central heating radiator is not an option according to my wife).
Regards, Mark
