Where do you buy your paraffin broadgage?
Z.
To add to the points already made, it should be noted that paraffin is no longer the cheap fuel that it once was.
The cheapest price that I can find for delivered containers is £35 for 20 liters from amazon.
20 liters will contain about 200 kwh. That much heat from mains electricity will cost £30 at 15 pence a unit or £40 at 20 pence a unit. So little if any saving.
Heating oil delivered in bulk from a tanker will of course be cheaper.
Paraffin is most useful for emergencies, for portable lamps, and for premises without an electricity supply. The economics of use as an alternative to electric heating are doubtful.
