Hi!
Can someone give me some advice please. I have bought a 1 and 2kw electric freestanding electric fire. In the manual it says "install near a power socket so you don`t have to use an extension lead". The problem is the fire power lead is quite short so I have to use an extension lead. It is a good quality one with the bsi mark.13amp (max load 3kw)...is this safe to use?. IF it is ok why does it say not to use one in the manual?...is it because someone might use an extension lead that only has a light load of 2w etc, ..many thanks!
