Hi,
Looking for some advice on the heating system on a house i viewed today and am interested in pursuing but had never seen this type of radiator before in a house.

House was about 12 years old and it had storage heaters in all the rooms(varied in sizes to small to about size of any standard radiator). They were cabled to the wall but the Auctioneer said that these radiators were storage heaters fuelled by the oil and were on timers.
Couldn't see any pipe work around the radiators but could see pipe work in the hot press and there was on oil tank in the garden and the oil boiler in the shed.

Will get a plumber out to investigate properly if things progess but for now just wondering has anybody any information or ever seen this type of system before. Are they good to heat the house, are the cost efficient etc.

Thanks in advance for any inforamtion provided
Cheers
Mick
