Elkatherm Electric Heaters

Hi

I have very old storage heaters and was considering the idea of putting in gas central heating. However as i only need 2/3 radiators it is working out as really expensive (not sure going to be in the property long enough to recoup the cost).

I have been recommended these heaters by a friend and was wandering if anyone else has any experience of them. I work all day therefore storage heaters are a pain as no heat left by the time i get home at 6pm.

Thanks

  • Disregarding the 'wireless control' facility, they will cost exactly the same to run and produce the same amount of heat as this for a lot less money purchase price.
    A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.
  • Or you can use fan assisted storage heaters which will hold the heat longer. Some of them you can fit a timer so the fan comes on automatically to warm the house up before you get home. These would work on your economy 7 tariff.
