Storage heaters are fairly pants imo, i had them in my flat. Ripped them our and installed central heating as soon as i could afford it, fitted it with future father in law, took about 4 days, cost about £1200 for Boiler rads, pipework stat etc etc, also cost about £500 to have transco run supply to property and install gas metre. Completly transformed the flat was so much more comfortable with central heating and worked out cheaper per month. | |

My last house had storage heaters, what a waste of money they where too. the price of heating a 3 storey four bed house was a joke. I wouldn't recommend them in the long term, had the house of been mine I would have hd central heating installed, would have been looking at upwards of 3K, but in a smaller property you'll be looking at maybe upwards of 2k, which trust me, will work out alot cheaper than storage heaters. | |

you just set the input to how hot you want it to get overnight then set the output to how fast you want it to discharge during the day, i have input set at 5 or 6 and output at min then it stays hot all the way through the day. | |
