About this deal

These prices are mainly affected by the international oil price, which has climbed steadily since the start of the year. The service company has probably actually done you a favour by refusing to service your heater, as I suspect that they were probably doing nothing more than what is covered in the Guide and Video, which is something that most competent DIY’ers can do themselves with basic tools and household cleaning agents. The 100 Euro’s which you are saving on servicing costs in the future will buy you quite a reasonable amount of fuel & heat, and even more so if you use domestic heating oil. I’ve found that UK distributors seem very reluctant to supply any spare parts for these heaters beyond consumables such as fuel strainer filters and fuel tank caps, and there is little information available to be found on the internet, especially when it comes to servicing or repairing these heaters. One of the main advantages of paraffin is that it burns cleanly and efficiently, producing a consistent heat that can keep your home warm and cosy throughout the winter months. Plus, it's generally less expensive than other heating fuels, making it an ideal choice for budget-conscious homeowners.

Martin Lewis: Do you have a Power of Attorney? It’s crucial protection – not just for the elderly – and more important than a will Paraffin is the stuff you burn indoors, however in the UK kerosene normally refers to 28 second home heating oil, the same stuff as people run there boilers with in remote areas. First of all, I have personally found that standard paraffin seems to burn no differently, and the smell is not much stronger than expensive C1 Paraffin!, yet it is sold much cheaper. Certainly the small increase in the strength of the fuel smell (generally only noticeable when the heater starts and stops) is a small price to pay in comparison to the large saving in the difference in cost, between Premium and Standard Paraffin, and when the heater is actually running there is no difference in my Corona heater between standard and premium fuels. Certain products carry a surcharge due to these being oversized items or attracting a specific surcharge from the carrier. These are typically products such as tanks and barrels. I don’t know when it’s winter how much the paraffin will cost. I don’t know from May, June, July and August how much paraffin is going to be. We are suffering, sometimes I don’t even have money to buy paraffin,” explains one community members.

I only promote these heaters as a method of saving money on home heating when used as I do, on basic heating oil. Currently this costs me 52p per litre, which works out at 5.2 per KW/H when burned in an Inverter Heater, which is a huge saving over a 12p – 13p Electricity Tariff, better than 50% in fact and is exactly how I drastically reduced by own Winter heating bills. I appreciate and respect that many people don’t want to risk the warranty on their heater or stray off the path of using the recommended fuels, but this is where a very careful consideration needs to be given as to whether you are actually going to be saving any money by moving over to an Inverter Heater and running it on the expensive premium fuel.

I’ve used a Corona Heater for three years, and a Cheap Kero KRE-300 Heater for Two years on standard 28 second kerosene (Domestic Heating Oil) with no ill effects to either myself or the heaters – and they do get a lot of use as they are my sole form of household heating, and have been throughout the period. Thanks for all the detail and calculations, scothun and HappyMJ (and welcome to the forum, scothun!). Thanks for your comment. I also own one of those Italian imports from Brico, its model number is SRE301 and is badged & branded ‘Kero’ I find it works just as well as my original (more expensive) Corona 3016, and gives exactly the same 3kw heat output. The instruction manual is in a mufti-language booklet style printed in several languages (including English!), the top panel controls and LCD display on the heater itself are all in English too!.Disodium thiosulfate [Na 2S 2O 3 or Na 2O 3S 2] weighs 1700 kg/m³ (106.12753 lb/ft³) [ weight to volume | volume to weight | price | mole to volume and weight | mass and molar concentration | density ] My parents warned me against heating with paraffin, they said it stank, gave out water, dangerous etc Diesel will go up by about R1,68 a litre, while Paraffin will likely go up by about R2,66 cents per litre.

It is important to note that paraffin has many uses beyond just being a fuel source. It is widely used in the cosmetic industry, as well as in the production of candles and other household items. Thus, knowing the cost of paraffin per litre is crucial for both personal and commercial use. Well yes. I have. the thing is that if you don't want/ cannot do obvious cheapest option with massive investment (e.g. central heating with full insulation upgrade of your house), the electric heating is the most expensive option available. There were quite a few threads about it on this forum as well. Polluting: Paraffin releases harmful pollutants such as carbon monoxide and particulate matter, which can exacerbate respiratory illnesses. If I am calculating with the cheapest 70p paraffin price and given that I use electricity during eco7 hours and use the paraffin heater during daytime, I would need 1,4L of paraffin for a 17 hours period. That would cost me 105p (70p/L) or 140p(100p/L) opposed to 165p for the daytime electricity. SO If I take the initial capital of 250pounds (this in generous as the radiator would cost as well) it would take 1000 days to regain the cost of the paraffin heater if I by the paraffin on 100p/L and 454 day if I buy it on 70p/L.CaribSea, Freshwater, Instant Aquarium, Kon Tiki weighs 1601.85 kg/m³ (100.00023 lb/ft³) with specific gravity of 1.60185 relative to pure water. Calculate how much of this gravel is required to attain a specific depth in a cylindrical, quarter cylindrical or in a rectangular shaped aquarium or pond [ weight to volume | volume to weight | price ] So just for now I think I will go with the paraffin heater and I think I voted for the Zibro. Although it is slightly less powerful (3KW opposed to the 3.2KW of the Corona Inverter) given the size of the room it is unimportant and although most of the UK suppliers are selling the Corona one (for some reason) the Zibro has 4 years garantee instead of the 2 years which the Corona untis are offering.
