Recommended Electric Storage Heaters

Hi,

Can anyone recommend suppliers and installers of electric storage heaters?

I need someone who can offer flexible payment options. I have had a quote from an electrician to supply and fit for around £2500 but I can't pay that in one go without taking a loan.

Cheers

    You'd be better off borrowing the money yourself to pay for the install. Bank loan, personal loan, etc.
    Then you can pick the installer you want without concern about finance.

    The technology is pretty ancient and the concept flawed (in the '10's). Suggest you look at alternative methods if you are a residential user and not home 24x7.

    Wow thats a lot of money! get yourself some oil filled or convector heaters for £200, it will take years to pay back the difference in running costs.
    If your going to that kind of expense i would look at getting propper central heating installed
