i have a heater in my hog room but i dont trust it at night, and this morning after putting it on it had a burning smell so its just heating on in my hog room now, so i was wondering what you think would be best to get. Would it be better to get a bigger heater that can be trusted, or would heat lamp things be better? xx

I have a 750 watt convector heater - runs on a thermostat so only comes on when needed as I have the central heating set to come on if it drops below 18 degrees

Lou would have to answer that one Jake - if you go on the dimplex site there is all the technical information on there to look at.
