Posted By: djhI just replaced a radiant heater in our shower with a fan heater of marginally lower power. We both find the fan is better (more comfortable)That goes against all that I've understood - and experienced! How come?
Posted By: fostertomAh - so the solution might be to place the radiant heater so it can 'see' the body in the shower - toasty!Not possible in our room, unfortunately, and more tricky in any room owing to the area definitions in bathrooms.

[IE £40k capital cost per house served]
Posted By: djhI'm not sure how many of the 300 houses the project can serve. 1.5 MW / 300 houses = 5 kW per house. Given that the houses haven't been adapted, is that likely to be enough power on a cold day? If it was half that number then the capital cost would double per house of course.
Posted By: Peter_in_Hungary£40k is an awful lot of money to swap out a gas boiler !Good point. It would pay for a good amount of insulation instead.
Posted By: VictorianecoWe have air to air in our office and my wife's shop. Don't think we'd like to use it in a house.
We get 2mins of freezing cold air almost every hour
