    Hi folks,

    Am looking at this convection heater.

    http://www.did.ie/Product/DIMPLEX-RADIATOR-CDE3ECC/18379/454

    How can I tell if its going to heat a space of about 20 square meters? Its an apartment with two external walls on the living room that gets pretty cold in the winter.

    There is a calculator on dimplex.co.uk that will determine the amount of wattage required to heat the room, one point of note, all electric heaters are 100% efficient so there is not differance between that 190 euro heater and a 50 euro one of the same wattage all things being equal being equal. I also find powercity via their website cheaper than did.

    Thanks Hopalong, that calculator is useful. Here it is if anyone else wants it.

    I apparently need at least 2.68kw in cold weather, so that one will do.
