The Tropic Electric Fan Heater is a rigid plastic cased electric fan heater that is sufficient to heat a greenhouse measuring up to 2 1/2m x 3m (8' x 10') - the heater has two thermostats for summer and winter use and two settings of 1kW and 2kW.
• The internal fan helps to circulate the warm air quickly and efficiently around the greenhouse. • The fan can also be used without the heating element to circulate air and cool the greenhouse in the summer. • The unit measures 30cm H x 22cm W x 13cm D and has a 129cm long lead. • The thermostat can be set on frost watch setting to keep your greenhouse frost free.

What The Experts Say...
"Bubble Insulation - Tri-laminated and UV stabilised, this insulation claims to reduce heating costs by 30%, while extending the frowing season in an unheated greenhouse by up to six weeks. Harrod Horticultural's website contains quite detailed instructions on how to claculate the amound needed and how many fixings to allow for. The fitting method also looks simple and well explained. The insulation is 1.5m wide and ordered per linear metre." Grow It! magazine, October 2008
"Insulate your greenhouse to keep plants snug over winter. Use special greenhouse bubble wrapping, cut into pieces and held in place with plastic clips that fit into the grooves between glazing bars." Daily Mail Online, Jobs To Do In Your Garden This Week, 5th November 2008
"Delicate plants often need help through the winters coldest spells. The popularity of tender exotics such as bananas means bubble wrap can sell out as temperatures drop." Emma Townshend, The Independent Online – 26/10/09
