Triassic Posted February 16, 2024 Posted February 16, 2024 So to keep cost in check, I installed Ikea units in the utility room. It’s designed to be cooler than the rest of the house, however I’m now getting complaints that it’s cold on the feet when stood ironing. Ikea plinths are narrow, only 75 to 80mm tall. I’ve search high and low and all the plinth heaters I can find are 100mm thick. Does anyone know of a slim plinth heater? Links would be good.
Super_Paulie Posted February 16, 2024 Posted February 16, 2024 the Smiths SS80 is designed for low plinths like Ikea ones, based on the name im thinking they need a plinth that is 80mm high. Still might be a stretch but you aint gunna get smaller than that i bet. Smiths SS80
oliwoodings Posted February 16, 2024 Posted February 16, 2024 My mum has one of the smiths ss80 in her IKEA kitchen, works very well. Seemed a bit annoying to install thought with only 8cm to play with, hope your plumber has nimble hands!
Triassic Posted February 16, 2024 Author Posted February 16, 2024 Mine is electric only. So the Smiths SS80 won’t do as it’s water based.
