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?
