Radiant wood heaters release heat into the room by 'radiating' a black infra red heat directly from the outer surfaces of the appliance, onto any object in close proximity resulting in more heat being retained lower in the room. Ideal for homes with high ceilings or poor insulation, or for applications when direct radiant heat is prefered, ie people suffering from arthritic or circulatory problems. Metro wood heaters offer three semi - radiant woodfires, all of which have convection chambers on the rear face enabling minimal raer wall clearances. With three sizes and outputs available, Metro have a radiant wood heating option to suit the samllest to largest of homes.
