Storage Heater & Hot Water Immersion Heater
A storage heater is an electric appliance that stores thermal energy by heating ceramic bricks within the device overnight. This stored heat is then released throughout the day to warm your home.
Storage heaters play a crucial role in the heating system of both residential and commercial spaces. They can serve as the primary source of heat or be used as a supplementary component in a larger heating system.
If you are subscribed to a time-of-use tariff, such as an Economy7 or Economy10 plan, and rely on electricity for heating, utilizing a storage heater allows you to take advantage of lower electricity rates during off-peak hours.
However, it is important to note that due to the higher cost of electricity compared to gas, storage heaters are primarily cost-effective for those who do not have access to the gas grid.
Hot Water Immersion Heater Repair
If your boiler malfunctions, homes equipped with immersion heaters can still enjoy hot water. Whether you are considering installing an immersion heater or already have one in place, it is advisable to continue reading.
Immersion heaters designed specifically for Economy 7 customers.
If you are on an Economy 7 plan then you should use immersion heaters at night, during 12:00am to 7:00am. When you heat your water overnight on the cheaper off-peak rates you have hot water for the next day at the cost of heating hot water for an hour during peak times.
Immersion heaters are compatible with an Economy 7 plan, whether or not a special time switch controller is installed. This controller guarantees that hot water is only heated during the seven off-peak night hours, providing convenience by eliminating the need to manually switch the heater on and off.
