You're entitled to your opinion, and Gerry1 and I ours....
When I did take up a Yorkshire Energy E7 tariff recently the break even point was just 15% off peak.
We can all see you and Gerry1 often have the same opinion
What is surprising here, is that you actually agree with me on this.0 -
Apologies for being a doom merchant, but I hope it doesn't all end in tears. If you haven't even checked the lease you could be in for some nasty surprises. Why is there no CH? Sounds like you've been sold a pup.
Apart from the grief an all-electric property may cause you, you may well find that it will be very hard to get a quick sale at a good price when you want to move on.0 -

The searches are being done, I've asked questions regarding the lease and asked to see energy bills0 -
Just revisited the EPC
It was done in July last year and is rated at 74 and installing high retention storage heaters are commended to take it up to 820 -
High retention storage heaters (e.g. clever ones such as Dimplex Quantum) may be the least worst option if you really can't have Gas CH, but they're really a last resort especially if you have a job and are out all day. But why go for expensive electricity if you can have gas? Storage heaters tend to be suitable only for retired people who are at home all day and like the low capital costs and that they can be moved to a new property.
Incidentally, I'm always surprised why people buy electric tumble dryers when gas ones are so much cheaper to run. I've just bought a new one with an A+ energy rating: the last one lasted 31 years (yes, really !) and paid for itself umpteen times over.

yes, the dimplex are ones i've looked at. I'm stuck with the least worst option.0 -
