storage heater

[luvmydogs]

Hi, I'd like to move my storage heater into a corner of the bedroom to make room for the bed. Its only a few inches so the electrics don't have to be moved but I was wondering if there would be a problem with one end of the heater being very close to the corner wall?

There will be a minium specified in the install instructions, most of the air flow is up the back, I would guess you would need to leave at least 6", contact manufacture, try there web site.

I've looked online but can't find anything - its a unidare heater.

Just looked at the space - theres not enough room for 6" at the side, but I can get it onto the other wall. However if I put it there, there will be a TV shelf a few inches above it - is that a problem?

I think it would be you need airflow.
To make the room hot
&
To cool the heater or it will just not work properly

Thanks, I found that before - but it doesn't have any instructions - or am I missing something?
