[QUOTE="revjames, post: 507877, member: 5256"] if the only way is wiring it from the lounge sockets, then I would suggest running a single cable from a 13a fused spur with a DP switch so in the event of any problems outside, you can switch off the external wiring and re set the RCBO or whatever protective device you have on the house wiring. 2x2kw heaters will however, use 16a approx so there may be an issue with prolonged use.
