So I gotta coupla old houses I am repairing for rentals, Both are in need of economical heat, RMH's are not really a viable option, due to liability issues, wall mounts (as in baseboards) are less than desirable, due to the inordinate quantity of wall space involved and, wall mounts (as in Cadets) are obnoxiously loud!
Sooo..... Oil filled radiators seem to be the best option....but a permanently mounted wall installation is needed to satisfy my insurance company.
European, (and Scandinavian) markets offer units like these;

But damn me for a blind man! I cant find any U.L. listing or other reasonable assurance of suitability on them, neither can I find one manufactured in the States.

Does anyone know of a comparable unit with both a U.L. listing, and without a $300.00 import fee to get it to the U.S.?
