Hi

Need to heat the main room in a crappy damp apartment where the storage heaters are bust, no Gas or oil available.

Looking for options, its a massive room/kitchen area with full height glazing on 2 walls.

Will an electric fire offer decent heat?
Are they expensive to run?
Any recommendations on make/model/KW rating that is should be looking out for?
Lastly can they simply be plugged into the wall or do they need a dedicated supply.

Any recommendations appreciated.

Based in Dublin city centre if anyone ahs any tips on suppliers/fitters.

Thanks in advance.
