Radiators?

[Liz E]

Hi everyone,

I know technically it's still Summer but we've just moved our two into a hutch in the garage so thought I'd get a head start on researching for winter!

I've read a lot of people mentioning they use oil radiators in their garages/sheds. Are there any brands/makes people would particularly recommend? And do you leave it on all night or just when you're around?

Our garage has electricity, it's own light and a side window that lets in some daylight. So my only concern is keeping it warm enough for them. We do always have the option to bring them in but they have a lot more space in the garage.

Sorry for the long post! You can probably tell I'm a worrying newbie owner lol

I''l tag @BossHogg for you as I know he uses a radiator in his piggie shed, and he can probably offer some good advice.
I am sure others will pop up too.

I just use a bog standard 2kw oil radiator, they have a built thermostat so when they reach the desired temperature, they switch off until they cool down, then heat up again.

Brilliant thanks! I think I'll be getting some fleece stuff for them to sleep on as well. Picked up a couple of throws from Primark today and during lap time they were the most stretched out and chilled I've ever seen them. They really loved it.
