My flat re-furb project continues...
Just removed a gross (greasy, rusty etc.) old halogen heater from the wall above the doorway of a small galley kitchen just a couple of metres square. There are plenty of small quartz infra-red wall mounted heaters I could replace it with but they typically specify 0.5 meters clearance from the ceiling - and the bit of wall above the door is only about 13 inch (which begs the question whether the original heater should have been there in the first place, given the top of it was about 3 inches from the ceiling). Space is at such a premium in there, that at the moment, my only options seem to be:
1. A door curtain type fan heater, but these tend to be ugly, industrial, and far too large/powerful for the requirement
2. A bathroom type down flow fan heater
3. A plinth heater
It was whilst looking at the third option that I stumbled across this:
https://udenheating.uk/en/warm-plinth-infrared-heaters.html
I know very little about these far IR panels, nor what (if any) restrictions there are around where they can be mounted. But this "plinth" heater looks neater than most of the quartz IR ones and begs the question whether there is any reason why it can't be mounted higher up.
Anyone with any experience of these heaters like to comment?
Thanks!
