I got the Soleus HGW308 model electric heater that you could mount to your wall last year. The main reason why I got this electrical heater is because we moved into a home that does not have central heat and air. It also had absolutely no heat anywhere, nothing previously installed.
I've got two children and as everyone knows space heaters usually are not good for children to be around. So once I spotted this wall mount heater I thought it will be perfect. I can install this high enough on the wall that little hands could not reach it. Well alas that's the only good thing this specific wall mounted electrical heater is good for.
Even though my own kids did not touch the heater and it did look a lot better when compared to any unit sitting on the floor, they also didn't get hot enough. The heater does not put out enough heat to warm a standard sized room. So I went out and bought a couple of of these wall mounted heaters. One for each kid's room.
I put them on the walls and hoped for the best. Their rooms just got a little warmer when compared to the rooms without heat in them. Even with the doors closed they had to curl up in their blankets and the room felt cold. I don't believe the room ever attained the set temperature or that the heater ever cut off because it never attained the set temperature.
So that is not very Eco friendly, now is it? Obviously, I took both wall heaters back to the shop. I got the older version that goes on the floor. While they are unattractive they do work. Not long after I got central heat inside the house. Now my very own house is warm and toasty in the winter time period, with the kids snug safe in their beds. I do not recommend to buy low cost wall mount heaters for your house, but instead go for high quality ones.
