Thanks RC,I have 3 different sizes, 60w 120w & 180w
They are not designed to heat a room like most heaters, they give off a steady heat. They all say warn the get hot as this is there way of getting out of being sued if you burn yourself on them!
My 60w kept the ice off the windscreen of the van, the 120w is by my pumps and kept them from freezing and where it was in the van the outside of the van was frost free.
Just fitted the 180w in the shed where my room is and that didn't have frost on the roof this morning but everything else was!
No it isn't. Its made out of 18mm chipboard. I guess I will have to do that next.If the box insulated?
Most of them have a thermal cut out as well. What size are you going for?Im buying one today.just gonna rest it across the froor in the van and leave it on all night. .
By all accounts it cant catch fire to things.its like a radiator just not as hot...
35 quid in b and q...
Have you a toolstation near you? The 180w are only 24.62 in there, or buy on line for free next day deliveryGetting a 180 w 3 ft....why do I need loft insulation and that silver stuff..what u on bout the wood mate..

Sounds good, no problem. Glad to help!Well thanks to you guys and especially to RCProperty. I ordered a 120watt tube heater from Toolstation (didn't have room for the bigger one) and fitted it tonight. This heater get too hot to touch. Within 1/2 an hour the temperature in the box was raised to 10 degrees where I want it and the frost stat had switched off. This is the result I was looking for. That 40 watt tube heater had kept the unit at 5 degrees for the last week and as far as I know, the frost stat never turned off.
Don't think I'll bother with insulating the box just yet. /emoticons/wink.png
I am going to look at the cupboard my transfer pump sits in. I have a 40 watt light bulb in there that I can switch on that keeps the pump from freezing - will probably fit that instead.
