    Thanks, @Rosie1001.  You won't gain much, if anything, by fitting HHR heaters then.
     Are you going to go ahead with getting a stove?

    When my central heating broke down one Christmas, I had to use the wood burner to heat the house for a couple of weeks.  You end up with one really hot room, and the rest of the house is vaguely warm.

    I still used an electric heater to take the chill off the bedroom.
    If it sticks, force it.
    If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.
