Better to install electric rads or gas central heating in outbuilding?

Anonymous user 15/03/2024 - 2.41 PM

I have an outbuilding separate to my property which I plan to rent out. The dimensions of the room are 3.5 x 3.5 metres. It also contains a bathroom. What would be the best solution to heat this room? Are electric heaters a viable option nowadays or are the running costs over the long term simply not worth it? Currently the room has electric but no existing gas supply. Option A Install Dimplex panel heaters Option B Fit a boiler and a couple of radiators Thanks.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

You could maybe think about putting in electric underfloor heating. Hope that helps out
