Smiths 2kW Electric Kitchen Plinth Heater SS2EW with Brushed Steel Effect Grille​

Right toffees - I've tried looking on mumsnet and nothing anybody said on the subject made any sense (people chat AROUND the question and don't answer it - why bother answering if you can't?)

I'll be fitting a new kitchen shortly and want a plinth heater to replace the rad that's taking up wall space. I don't want an electric heater, it will be plumbed into the existing central heating. If there is a fan I want it to come on automatically when it senses hot water, and go off after. I need about 1kW output most of the time. MOST IMPORTANTLY - I need the fan to be the QUIETIST. The kitchen is open plan and right next to my hifi!

I've already considered putting a bag of sawdust in front of the grille to absorb noise. I'd like your recommendations based on experience, of QUIET brands and models to consider thanks. There's got to be loads of you who've fitted these and know.

* if you're going to say such-and-such a model is really quiet and you happen to be deaf, please make this clear.

Cheers.

In my experience the Winterwarm WWFH20E is absolutely top class and best in class.

Second would be the CDA APH01SS Stainless Steel Plinth Heater, a suitable, if long distance second.

How do you think it compares to the Winterwarm WWFH20E?

For me the SS2EW is a little more difficult to use and there was no neon power indicator. Though I did like that it has different coloured overlays.

I’ve heard the Lisbon is good if you want your plumbing inspected.

Gonna ruin them reel to reels and 8 tracks.

Ugg boots are really quiet or depending on the size of your plinth you could install one of these under your units….

The Smiths has the pube function which really sets it apart from the rest.

Its class leading for anal hair also.

That's a beauty.
I can't hear a noise from it.
Seems to be just what he's after
