Default Tubular Heater for Airing Cupboard

Cokey wrote:

I need a tubular heater for a new airing cupboard. The cupboard is
approx 100cm (w) x 100cm (d) x 250cm (h). I see that standard tubular
heaters come in 60w, 120w, 180w etc. What will I need to keep the
airing cupboard nice and warm? Will 60w be enough?


I would probably go for the 120W

Does anyone know where I can find a tubular heater with built-in
thermostat? If I cant find one with built-in then I will get a plug-in
type of thremostat to go with it.


You can use an ordinary room stat. Most will switch small loads like
that without any difficulty.
