Heaters

The Sunhouse 500W wall mounted panel heater is a compact, electrically powered heating unit designed for smaller rooms, offices, staff areas, and similar commercial spaces. It operates via a digitally controlled electronic thermostat with an LCD display, allowing precise temperature management without manual adjustment throughout the day.

Where this heater distinguishes itself from basic panel heaters is in its 7-day programmable timer. Operators can set heating schedules across the full week, which suits workplaces with consistent but varied opening patterns. The adaptive start function — a self-learning feature — monitors how long the space takes to reach the set temperature and begins pre-heating automatically, so the room is at the right temperature when staff arrive rather than when the heater has caught up.

In practical terms, this kind of control reduces unnecessary heating during unoccupied periods, which matters when managing energy costs across a facility. It is straightforward to programme and does not require specialist setup.

• Programmable scheduling reduces energy use during unoccupied periods
• Adaptive start pre-heats rooms without manual intervention
• Wall-mounted installation keeps floor space clear
• Digital thermostat maintains consistent ambient temperature
• Lightweight construction at 3.4kg makes installation straightforward

At 500W, this heater is appropriate for smaller enclosed spaces — a staff room, reception area, or back-office environment. It is not suited to large open-plan kitchens or areas with significant heat loss. For larger or poorly insulated spaces, a higher-output unit would be worth considering.

If you are unsure whether this output level is right for the space you have in mind, we are happy to talk through the options.

The Pifco 203854 is a compact, plug-in oil filled radiator designed to provide consistent background heat in smaller spaces. It operates on three heat settings and uses a sealed oil-filled fin system to radiate warmth steadily without a fan, making it quieter than many alternative portable heaters.

In a commercial context, this type of unit is commonly used in staff rooms, changing areas, small offices, reception spaces, and back-of-house corridors where a permanent heating solution either isn't installed or isn't practical. It isn't designed for large open spaces or areas with heavy ventilation, and it works best as a supplementary heat source rather than a primary one.

Practical advantages for day-to-day use include:

• No hardwired installation required — plugs into a standard socket
• Built-in castors allow it to be repositioned as needed
• Fan-free operation keeps noise levels low
• Three heat settings allow output to be matched to conditions
• Cable and plug can be stored tidily when the unit is not in use

Because it runs from a standard plug socket, there are no installation requirements beyond a suitable power outlet. The metal construction keeps the unit reasonably robust for regular handling, though at 5kg it's light enough for one person to move without difficulty. It isn't suitable for wet or high-humidity environments such as wash-up areas or outdoor covered spaces.

This radiator is best suited to smaller commercial spaces needing occasional or supplementary heating — staff welfare areas being the most common application. If you need to heat a larger space or require something running continuously through a full working day, it's worth discussing your requirements with us before ordering.

The Sunhouse 1.5kW wall mounted panel heater is a slim, electrically powered panel unit designed to provide background or supplementary heating in offices, staff rooms, changing areas, and similar workplace environments. It runs from a standard mains supply, mounts directly to the wall, and is controlled via an integrated LCD display with a built-in digital thermostat.

In day-to-day use, the primary practical strength of this heater is its programmable 7-day timer. Rather than heating a space continuously, operators can set individual schedules for each day of the week, which helps avoid unnecessary energy use during unoccupied periods. The adaptive start function adds a degree of intelligence to this — the unit learns how long the space takes to reach the target temperature and begins heating early enough to hit that temperature precisely when the schedule requires it, rather than simply switching on at the programmed time.

From an operational standpoint, the benefits worth noting are:

• Programmable 7-day scheduling reduces energy waste during closed or unoccupied periods
• Adaptive start means the room reaches temperature on time without manual adjustment
• Digital thermostat allows precise temperature control rather than approximate dial settings
• Wall mounting keeps floor space clear, which matters in compact back-of-house areas
• Relatively lightweight construction makes repositioning or installation straightforward

Installation requires a suitable wall fixing point and a mains electrical connection. At 1.5kW, the unit draws a modest load and will typically connect to a standard 13A circuit, though any electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician. This output is suited to smaller, reasonably well-insulated rooms — it is not intended to heat large open-plan spaces or areas with significant heat loss such as loading bays or poorly insulated outbuildings.

This heater is well suited to staff welfare areas, small offices, reception spaces, and similar ancillary rooms attached to commercial premises. For larger spaces or environments with higher heat loss, a unit with greater output would be more appropriate. If you are unsure whether this model is the right fit for your site, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you order.

The Pifco 203915 is a compact, plug-in oil-filled radiator rated at 800W. It operates on the same principle as larger oil-filled units — an enclosed reservoir of thermal oil is heated by an electric element and radiates warmth steadily into the surrounding space without the need for a fan or any fixed installation. The result is quiet, consistent heat from a unit small enough to move easily between rooms.

For commercial use, this unit is best understood as a supplementary heating solution rather than a primary heat source. It suits smaller enclosed spaces where a little additional warmth is needed — a staff changing area, a small back office, a security booth, or a dry goods storage room where temperatures drop in winter. The 800W output is modest by commercial standards, so it works best in draught-free spaces of limited volume rather than open-plan or high-traffic areas where heat dispersal is significant.

Practically, the unit offers a few straightforward advantages for operators managing supplementary heating across a site:

• Portable and lightweight at 3.4kg — easily repositioned as needs change
• Adjustable thermostat allows basic temperature control without manual cycling
• No installation required — standard plug-in connection
• Silent operation — no fan noise, suitable for quiet working environments
• Metal construction with a compact footprint for tight spaces

There are honest limitations to bear in mind. At 800W, this is not suited to heating larger spaces or compensating for poor insulation. It is a domestic-grade unit sold for light commercial supplementary use, and operators with more demanding heating requirements should consider a higher-output alternative.

If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your space or need guidance on more capable options, the team is happy to help you work through what is appropriate.

The Pifco 203878 is a portable oil filled radiator with a built-in 24-hour timer and three heat settings. It operates without a fan, producing steady, silent warmth through convection, and runs from a standard plug socket with no hardwired installation required.

In a catering environment this type of unit is most commonly used in back-of-house areas rather than the kitchen itself — staff rooms, changing areas, dry stores, small offices, or covered outdoor break areas where supplementary heat is useful during colder months. The oil-filled design retains heat well and continues to emit warmth for a period after the unit is switched off or the thermostat cycles down, which helps to maintain a consistent ambient temperature without constant power draw.

Practical points worth noting:

• Runs from a standard 13A plug socket — no installation required
• Built-in castors allow the unit to be repositioned as needed
• 24-hour timer supports scheduled heating to reduce unnecessary running costs
• No fan means no air movement — useful in areas where dust or food debris is a concern
• Plug and cable store away neatly when the unit is not in use

It is worth being realistic about scale. This is a domestic-grade unit suited to smaller enclosed spaces. It is not intended to heat a large kitchen or a substantial commercial area. For larger back-of-house spaces, a higher-output solution would be more appropriate.

If you are unsure whether this unit fits your site's requirements, the team is happy to point you in the right direction.

The Status 2kW portable fan heater is a compact, mains-powered unit designed to provide supplementary heat in staff areas, storage rooms, changing rooms, and other back-of-house spaces. It operates in two positions — upright on a flat surface or tilted to direct airflow at floor level — giving a degree of flexibility depending on how the space is used.

It is not a piece of commercial catering equipment in the conventional sense, but it is a practical, low-cost solution for operators who need to take the chill off a draughty prep area, loading bay, or staff welfare room without committing to a fixed or permanent heating installation. The two heat settings and adjustable thermostat allow the output to be matched to the size of the space rather than running at full power continuously.

From a practical standpoint, the overheat protection is a sensible safeguard in environments where the unit might be left unattended for periods. The lightweight construction means it can be moved easily between areas as needed.

• Two heat settings for flexible output control
• Adjustable thermostat to avoid unnecessary energy use
• Dual position operation — floor standing or angled
• Overheat protection as a standard safety feature
• Lightweight and easy to reposition between spaces

This unit is best suited to small, enclosed back-of-house areas rather than open or high-ceilinged spaces where a 2kW output will be insufficient to maintain a comfortable temperature. For larger staff areas or spaces with poor insulation, a higher-output unit would be a more appropriate choice.

If you are unsure whether this heater is the right fit for your space, we are happy to help you think it through.

The Consort Low Surface Temperature panel heater is a wall-mounted electric heater designed specifically for environments where surface heat poses a genuine safety concern. Unlike standard panel heaters, this unit is engineered to keep its outer surface at no more than 43°C during operation, which brings it in line with NHS Estates Health Guidance Notes. That makes it a practical choice wherever vulnerable people may come into contact with the heater casing.

In practical terms, the heater delivers consistent, efficient warmth to the room while remaining safe to touch — a combination that matters in care homes, clinical areas, staff welfare rooms, canteen spaces, and anywhere a standard heater would present an unacceptable burn risk. The digital controls and built-in 7-day programmable timer mean heating can be scheduled accurately around occupancy patterns, which helps manage running costs without manual intervention each day.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:

• Low surface temperature design reduces burn risk in vulnerable or high-footfall environments
• Splash-resistant construction suitable for areas where cleaning is routine
• 7-day programmable timer supports accurate, hands-off scheduling
• Slim wall-mounted profile keeps floor space clear
• Straightforward digital controls require minimal staff training

Installation is straightforward — the unit is wall mounted and runs on a standard electrical supply, so no specialist gas or water connections are required. It is a relatively compact and lightweight unit, which makes positioning flexible. As with any fixed electrical heater, it should be installed by a qualified electrician, and placement should account for clearance from furniture, drapes, and anything that could restrict airflow around the unit.

This heater is well suited to care homes, hospitals, schools, staff rooms, and welfare facilities where safe surface temperatures are a requirement rather than a preference. It is less suited to large open commercial kitchen areas where industrial-grade space heating would be more appropriate. If the space you need to heat is larger or requires multiple zones, it is worth considering a higher-output alternative before committing.

If you are unsure whether this model is the right fit for your site — particularly in a regulated or clinical environment — we are happy to talk through the specifics before you place an order.

The Sunhouse 1kW wall-mounted panel heater is a compact electric heating unit designed for permanent wall installation in smaller spaces. It operates via a built-in digitally controlled electronic thermostat with an LCD display, allowing heating schedules to be programmed across a seven-day cycle. An adaptive start function learns how long the space takes to reach the target temperature and begins heating automatically ahead of the scheduled time, so the room is already at the right temperature when needed.

In a commercial context, this unit is well suited to staff areas, offices, changing rooms, reception spaces, and back-of-house rooms where a straightforward, controllable heat source is required. At 1kW, it is not intended for large open areas or high-traffic spaces with significant heat loss — its strength is providing consistent, programmable warmth in enclosed, reasonably insulated rooms used on a regular schedule.

Practical advantages for day-to-day operation include:

• Seven-day programmable timer reduces unnecessary heating outside operating hours
• Adaptive start removes the need to manually adjust schedules seasonally
• Digital thermostat maintains a set temperature without constant intervention
• Wall-mounted installation keeps floor space clear
• Metal and plastic construction is straightforward to wipe down and maintain

Installation requires a standard mains electrical connection. The unit is wall-mounted, so appropriate fixings and wall suitability should be confirmed before fitting. At 4.3kg, it is light enough for one person to handle during installation. No specialist ventilation or gas supply is needed.

This heater is best suited to smaller, enclosed spaces with modest heating requirements. For larger rooms, open-plan areas, or sites needing multiple zones, it is worth considering a higher-output option before committing to a single unit.
