Electric Storage Heaters
Electric Storage Heaters: The Basics
Electric storage heaters are an excellent way to improve energy efficiency and reduce costs in your home. These heaters work by storing heat during off-peak hours when electricity rates are lower and then releasing it gradually throughout the day. This not only lowers your energy bills but also ensures a consistent and comfortable temperature, preventing excessive energy use.
Modern electric storage heaters are slim and stylish, making them suitable for various room sizes and property types. They are particularly beneficial for households without access to mains gas. For optimal performance, it is important to consider factors such as proper home insulation and usage patterns when installing electric storage heaters.

The benefits of Electric Storage Heaters
Cost Savings: Electric storage heaters use off-peak electricity tariffs, charging at night when rates are lower, leading to potential long-term savings on energy bills.
Control and Flexibility: Modern electric storage heaters often have advanced controls and programmable features, allowing users to customize heating settings and optimize energy use.
Even Heat Distribution: The design of electric storage heaters ensures consistent and even heat distribution, maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature and reducing cold spots or overheating.
No Boiler or Pipework: Unlike central heating, electric storage heaters don’t need a boiler or pipework, making them suitable for properties where traditional systems are impractical or expensive.
Low Maintenance: With no moving parts or combustion, electric storage heaters require minimal maintenance and infrequent repairs.
No Carbon Monoxide Risk: As they don’t burn fuel, electric storage heaters eliminate the risk of carbon monoxide emissions, enhancing safety.
