I assume that you have decided that you do really need a seperate
thermostat for the kitchen?

I fitted a kickspace heater in the last kitchen I did and it had an
inbuilt thermostat which turned the fan on when hot water was flowing.
This worked fine with a master thermostat in the hall and individual
thermostats on the radiators elsewhere.

Hi Dave

My understanding of the built in stat is that whenever heat is being called
for anywhere else on the live heating circuit (in my case the downstairs is
on a separate zone), then the kitchen kick space heater will run - as the
flow temperature available will be sensed as higher than 43 degrees c. If
there is cooking or laundry activity in the kitchen, then the kick space may
not be required/desirable even though other parts of the ground floor are
calling for heat.
