Heating a room

[Ric.ror]

What is the best way to heat a room apart from CH or a traditional Gas/Electric fire?

[clever trev]

I think you have named all three.

Apart from various stoves.

install carpet

make sure windows are double glazed - and closed.....

carpet the floor above it and make sure your insulation is thick....

this should decresed teh heat lost and increase your u values

I was wondering what was best between fan, convector or Ceramic heaters

[Ice-Maiden]

Storage heaters? Personally, I like open fires, but it might not be possible where you live?

The three you mention all use expensive (on-peak) electricity and are fairly equal in efficiency terms. But all cost more (for the same heat produced) than most other forms.

I have no choise in this property so have storage heaters with a thermostatical controled convector electric coal effect heater.

So far its the cheapest way I ca find to heat efficiently.

My first choice would be gas fires.
