Can't afford to run Electric Storage Heaters

wajoda2002

Edit - I wonder if the op's mother is using the storage heaters correctly. As a starting point, imv, she needs to ensure the output is set to zero when she goes to bed, and that it isn't turned up until early evening, then only as low as possible to keep the place warm enough. The input should be set max for a day or two, then slowly turned down if there is obviously lots of heat left in them at the end of the evening (which is unlikely if it's cold). Also, if they aren't correclt sixed to the room, or if it isd very cold like last winter, or if a high room temperature is required, or if the house is uninsulated and drafty, or if doors are left open, then it's possible or likley that even on max, there may not be enough stored heat to heat the place satisfactorily.[/QUOTE]

I have asked this numerous time and EON have sent out an info booklet for instruction and unit amounts etc. The landlord/estate agent wont come and look at them to see if there is a fault?

Thank you everyone for your effort and replies
