Plinth Heaters - Which one to buy?

[Sheraz]

Hi,

I'm looking to purchase a plinth heater but am unsure as to which one to purchase - electric or CH!

Can anyone make any recommendations?

I like the idea of the CH heater but there are not many reviews; does anyone have this type installed? Is the heat any good?

Appreciate any pro/cons to both!

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Sheraz

Smiths Heaters. Look on their website, they are very good in my opinion, wet, or electric, or even both. There are several at my place of work. Look at the spec of each heater, to match with your room size.

I always fit Smiths as well.

Much better than the Myson crap IMHO

Smiths Environmental for me as well, they are more widly availible than other brands so they must be good

It's their build quality as well. Plus you can have different front panels with various finishes as well. Which is nice.

I have found that the Mysons do get a bit rattly after a while.

electric is easier to install, hydronic is cheaper to run.

new build house I owned had a Myson run off the central heating, i found it kicked out a fair bit of heat but the fan was quite noisy. After 4 years it stopped kicking out heat.

no idea what the problem was and I moved house that summer so was no longer my problem.
