What is the wattage of my old storage heaters?

Hello,

I'm trying to find out the wattage of the storage heaters in my rented house. They are old Dimplex ones, mid-grey, with the dials that you turn with a 2p piece. I can't see any visible labels and as its a rented house there are no instructions.

The larger ones are 101cm long x 69cm from the floor, and pertrude 15cm from the wall.

The smaller ones are 56cm x 69cm off the floor and petrude 15cm from the wall.

They must be a good ten to fifteen years old.

I am hoping someone else might have these and know the power that they use.

Thanks

Twotoes

    They sound similar to the one's I had in my flat some years ago-

    They were 3.4kw for the large one

    and 2kw for the smaller.

    Are they the ones with the extra boost facility?
    These are my thoughts and no one else's, so like any public forum advice - check it out before entering into contracts or spending your hard earned cash!

    I don't know everything, however I do try to point people in the right direction but at the end of the day you can only ever help yourself!
  • Yes they are. Thank you - this is really helpful. Sorry its taken me so long to get back to this.
