My house is all hot water baseboard heat. I have a 12x14 sun room with a vaulted ceiling on the back of the house that is all windows. It has baseboard on 2 walls that does OK at keeping the room somewhat heated, but it still gets down around 55-60 when its really cold out. Its on the main floor of the house on the same heating loop as the kitchen, dinning and living rooms. So its taking heat we could use in the main page of the house and isnt getting very warm.

We recently started using the room as a play room for our 3 year old. Im looking for a stand-alone heater we can put in the wall on its own loop that has its own electric fan that I can wire to a thermostat. Something we could turn on and off when he is out there. I know it will waste a ton of heat to try and keep it 70 back there 24/7, but I want to be able to warm it up more when he is out there. I see a bunch of options online, but not sure what is good and what isnt worth it.

I’ve seen several kits to take a kick space heater and mount it in a wall.

Is this a poured room or does it have floor joists? Kits are also available to take a kick space heater and mount it between the floor joists.

There is a cement crawl space under the room.

Do you have access to under the floor? Sounds like ultra fin would work good.

I have access to under the floor. Have ultrafin under my bathroom floor. This room has carpet plus Im looking for something more instant that can be turned on and off when its needed.

My kitchen has a Myson wall hung hydronic convector that does an okay job of heating it.  It's heating about 400sqft of space.  But, it runs a lot due to the floor not yet being insulated.  Myson has varying styles of wall hung hydronic convectors.  In your search engine simply type in "Myson wall hung hydronic convectors".  Roger

I also have a Myson in wall heater I have the 5000. It heats my upstair master suite no problem about 1000 sq ft.
