oil radiators: any opinions?
"Nimrod" wrote in message ... My oil radiator take 20 minutes to fully warm up and about the same to cool down. Apart from the warmth I do not notice it's on except for the electricity bill. My radiator is 1 kilowatt (about 11p sterling an hour). G4IJL Who gives a damn? "Baron P. Parsnip of Formaldehyde" wrote in message ... Be still! and revere 'Dungeon' Dave, who blessed us with their presence on 02 Dec 2005... More to the point, anyone here with more indepth knowledge about them? These jobbies: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/4157382.htm AFAICS, something electrical warms up the oil that then circulates around to radiate heat. My guess is that it's more efficient than a wire-wound electrical bar fire, but although they're quoted in KW, I'm not sure what the cost of running one is, and how it compares. Any pointers, O sages? I recommend a little x-post. You're unlikely to find anyone who can help you in this froup. What are you afraid of, O "Dungeon" Master? -- 1 Baron Peter Parsnip of Formaldehyde 2 Newly Ennobled 13th November 2005 3 Cost of Nobility: £150,000 4 Contact T.
