Anyone have experience of IR heaters ?
To my scientific mind they are no more efficient than any other type of heater, but I am here to be corrected !
Cheers.

We're the last place on the planet still using your old system of measurements, this including fahrenheit, and now YOU"RE not using it.
The old system must be better than metric because we pay the same for a gallon of petrol that you pay for a liter!

I think you'll find that if your fuel prices were truly reflective of what they should be you're population would burst every blood vessel as you don't appreciate it isn't water.

I would suggest SB, a small wall mounted oil rd or flat panel heater over infra-red. I cant see you having many items in a porch, so there wouldn't be many solid objects to heat up. I would also think having something that convects the heat would help with cold fall from windows or doors, and help keep condensation down at the windows.

We pay the same on the world market for oil as you and everybody else.
We unfortunately don't have the same social safety net that you do, so we don't pay the taxes on things the way you do.

In a way, your system is better because you get more bang for the buck (quid?) paying for things with tax money instead of discretionary spending.
Half of the former expenditures don't go to corporate profits where half of the latter expenditures do.
