Storage heater with no visible controls...where are they?!

Options
Hey!

I've recently moved into a property with storage heaters. All the storage heaters in the house have the input and output settings under a little panel on the top, except our bathroom storage heater. The heater in the bathroom seems to be completely sealed and has no visible controls, where are the controls and how can I access them? It's a pretty old and horrible looking storage heater, this may be why.

Any suggestions would be great!

    there wont be any controls you can actually touch inside the bathroom.
    the switch or control box will be elsewhere. ive seen them in some pretty odd places.
    the kitchen for one!
    Get some gorm.
  • Hi,

    you probably have one similar to this,

    controlled by a sensor, supposed to regulate the input depending on the ambient temperature over night.

    If you have a look at the bottom, between the legs you should see it hanging down, though it may be tucked up the back.

    (Jings, that last bit sounds naughty :o)
