I have a conservatory.....polycarb roof and double glazed windows and i use a 3 kw oil filled radiator.


The conservatory is approx 45m3 (12' x 15' x 7'...ish) and i also use a small 6" desk fan to distribute the heat. We find this more than adequate.


Maybe one of the 2kw dehlongi oil filled rads would be fine or a couple of cheap 2KW fan heaters would suffice.

HTH



Really you are asking a question that is too open-ended. The only place heat goes to is to the cooler outside - sideways through the walls, up through the roof and down through the floor. There's a physics law that says energy cannot be destoyed. So the amount of heat you will need depends entirely on the insulation you have in place and the ambient temperature outside.
buildersmate you always give really good answers ! -How would you insulate a south-facing conservatory???
