[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 236258, member: 1607"] A competent heating engineer should be able to run copper pipes very neatly on the surface, but the cost of copper has become prohibitively expensive and plastic pipe just never looks neat surface run, in my opinion. I do know of some flats with electric heaters, approx 1.7kW each running off the standard circuits. But these are middle block flats with few external walls. i.e. other flats above, below and to one side. Do any of the heater manufactures have any calculation links for size of rooms, external internal walls etc to give the required sizes you would need for your rooms. You could then identify if they could be run off the standard circuits without overloading your cables. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
