storage heater timers

Hi All
I have a house that has two consumer units and one electricity meter on two tarrifs (E7). One c/unit supplies a spur to each room i.e. for storage heaters but no timer?
As there's no heating at the property I will be fitting storage heaters.
Q...
Can you fit individual (rated) timers to each spur to contol each individual heater(max heater would be 2.5Kw)? Or do I have to install one main mechanical one fitted to the main supply to the c/unit?
I understand that some of the small timers (immersion heater type) are rated at 16amps so in theory these should be ok?.
Any one know?

Welcome to the forum.
You will probably get a better response to your question from the DIY section as there are some Electricians who frequent that board.
