All forms of electrical heating(other than storage heaters on Economy 7 – and yes I have read your other posts) are the most expensive way of heating possible.

It doesn’t matter what type of electrical heating. They all cost the same to run for the same heat output.

If you really can’t get on with Economy 7 and are determined to have electric warm air heating, you might as well get some cheap fan heaters.

thanks for you answer cardew, and no i cant get on with e 7 or e 10. I simply asked for advice on other electric forms of heating and i am a bit more house proud to ` get some cheap fan heaters` if i wanted to do that i would have gone to argos and done that !!

By "cheap fan heaters" heaters I mean a simple system that won't cost much to install.

If the aesthetics are important, I am sure you can get a fan heater designed by Porsche, Stella McCartney or Victoria Beckham(a slimline model)

My point was not to buy a hugely expensive(non-storage) electrical heating system marketed to give the impression that they are more efficient; because they ain't.
