Economy 7 hours SSE

  • Thanks all! I do know about Econ 7. I will need to do something in so far as I need to alter the timers manually on the storage heaters that were not wired correctly - this is why I had manual timers added to them. I will also have to alter the start times of the washing machine and dishwasher - esp as the washer has a long cycle. At least I know I can go back to doing midnight ironing and baking!! I can't find the current charge online so will call SSE.

    Glad to know we've helped you, and enjoy your midnight baking! (Midnight ironing sounds less fun to me.)
