Greenhouse Heater

Can anyone recommend a good greenhouse heater?

Thanks

It doesn't look like many of us use them.

I don't now, but when I did, I used a good quality 'ordinary' fan heater, knowing that I wouldn't be daft enough to spray it with water, and that if I did, it was all on a 30milliamp trip anyway.

Like all home heaters, the frost stat was actually set to about 5c, which is incredibly wasteful, so I re-set it on a cold night to come on close to true 0c. I did this by adjusting the thermostat in situ with the heater switched off. (Perfectly easy to do because they make an audible 'click.')

If people don't know what I'm talking about, they shouldn't be doing this, but I estimate that it more than halved the electric consumption.

Of course if you have really exotic stuff, 0c will be too low, but it sufficed for my pelargoniums, and similar.
