Yes it plugs in and was on all the time , although not now and a new one ordered, the other heaters are on a timer, and have been since we left

You need a timer to go with the new one, if not you will be forever wondering if you left it on next time you have to vacate. I know if I do something like that I have to check repeatedly before I trust myself enough the next time.

Could you not turn the gas/electric off at source or do you want to leave them on incase of freezing?

OOOPPS!!!!
Just been making broccoli and stilton soup, and realised I never took my bouquet garni bag out before blending it. Hey ho, doubt there will be anything in it that can kill me.

Think you will live

Bubbs, you can get the tube ones with a thermostat built in for under £20 at toolstation and the likes.

We knew we had left it on , it is on all the time when we are there, cant put it on a timer as the wire goes through the wall and plugs into the same socket as the f/freezer
