Portable heating
Needs must.
Can anyone recommend a good portable heating device. I am thinking a portable gas heater, seen this one in Argos. Buy DeLonghi Portable Gas Heater. at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for . Anyone know where I would get a gas bottle from locally? Does anyone use one of these type of heaters and can tell me how long a bottle usually on average lasts and how much they are? TIA Or better still anyone got one for sale.

Re: Portable heating
Try Accy Gas 0800 0855435
Personally I don't really like burning gas inside with all the fumes staying inside. The machine will instruct you to make sure you have the correct ventilation in the room. I bet not many leave the window open while they have those gas heaters on.

Re: Portable heating
Cliff Crooks in blackburn deliver gas bottles too they deal with homeheat gas - quite popular & recommended 01254 50189
 I used to work in the gas bottle & heater industry & they are safe as long as u dont put anything near the heaters whilst on, they need plenty of ventilation, have purchased a new heater or least had it checked out which the above can do for u otherwise i wouldn't recommend u use it certainly without having the heater checked or profesionally cleaned out for you - the flame from the jet should not be a yellow colour nor an enlarged flame - thats a warning sign its not right - it should be blue colour & small from the jet inlets below the tiles. Best bet is to stick to getting a brand new one [least u have guarentee on it] or a recon one from a reputable gas bottle/heater retail outfit, also no harm in purchasing a carbon monoxide indicator/alarm just to be extra safe.

Re: Portable heating
Oil filled radiators are a safe option, no fumes, they stay warm for ages and have thermostats built in.
You can normally get them for ~£30-40 |
