What does your insurer think of that David? Mine shot me down instantly when I said flame, electric only is all I would get cover for. Should I be looking at another insurer?

[David Hammond]

Fine, because it’s a fixed installation.

The don’t like mobile heaters, such as propane space heaters.

[Kevin Mahoney]

I think I need an afternoon off to look into this then. If some are willing to cover these I’d save a small fortune in Winter

[David Hammond]

It’s an oil fired heater, that’s all.

If they ask it’s manually started.

Our broker’s seen the thing, got audited off the insurer and all was OK.

I learnt in the RN, only answer the question they ask 😆

I have air con so can’t add anything to the argument sadly

[Alex Crosbie]

I have air source heat pumps which are air con units in the summer, they qualified for an eu grant as they represented a sizeable carbon saving over the gas space heaters we used to use, cost wise they’re not horrendous and they allow the whole industrial unit to be temperature controlled all round.
One thing that shouldn’t be overlooked is comfort and the time saving of any manual source of heating
