I have a small sitting room, and would like to put in a multi fuel burner.

The KW calculator says I only need a 2kw burner, but I'm not sure that they even exist.

Are there regulations preventing me from putting (for example) a 5kw burner in?
 
Get yourself a 3kw fan heater, and see how warm the room gets.
 
Yes, you need it signing off, I think by a Hetas engineer.

I used to run a 5Kw stove in a small room 4x4m it was fine as long as you wanted to wear just pants :D
