I have an 18 x 12 conservatory and i use a 3kw oil filled radiator. This keeps it nice and toastie warm even on the coldest nights. I also use a small 6" clip on fan set on the lowest output and clipped on to the radiator just to distribute the heat around.

Have you done the floor yet, you could have underfloor heating if you are putting ceramic tiles down.

I've just put electric underfloor heating in for someone, they supplied the bits so not sure how much it cost. Its works very well. I think running costs are about the same as a 2KW electric heater.
