Direct Gas or Paraffin Heaters
Direct gas or paraffin heaters burn the fuel and blow the heat directly into the room with an electric fan. These are high power heaters with easy set up, connect an LPG cylinder (gas) or fill with fuel (paraffin) and plug into a standard 13 amp supply. The highest power HG7 requires mains gas fitted by a qualified engineer.
The exhaust gas from combustion is blown into the room so good ventilation is required.
All paraffin heaters can be modified to run on diesel prior to delivery.
Choosing the right size heater
You will need the right size heater to suit the size of room.
We need to calculate the size of the room in cubic metres.
Scroll down the list below to compare the units available for your room size.
Two or more units can be used for larger areas. Additional capacity (approximately 20%) may be required if the room is uninsulated.
