Default Radiant hot water heating

Careful! I have a similar electric heater under the cabinet in my
bathroom and it's hot enough to fry my toes when I'm standing in
front of it.

But, maybe a hot-water powered unit wouldn't get so hot, and I guess
you're not so likely to be barefoot in the kitchen.

Water temperature of a FHW system should be in the 130-140 degree range and
with the air blowing across it, it won't fry your toes and it is very
comfortable. Do you have steam radiators (the big cast iron ones) or do you
have a FHW/boiler setup?
