Night storage heaters enjoyed widespread popularity in the 1970s. However, with the emergence of more advanced heating solutions, a growing number of households are opting to part ways with and upgrade from these outdated systems.
Discover the compelling reasons to swap out your outdated night storage heaters for the innovative ELKATHERM® electric radiators from HeatElectric. In this guide, we'll delve into the benefits of making the switch and explore why these German-manufactured radiators outshine traditional night storage heaters in every aspect.
Conventional night storage heaters are equipped with thermal heating bricks that absorb heat during off-peak hours using more economical tariffs, and releasing the stored heat throughout the day. Unfortunately, these heaters lack the flexibility to control the heat release, leaving you unable to tailor it to your daily schedule. The majority of heat is dispersed during the day, resulting in a chilly home during the evening.
Night storage heaters were initially designed to maximise off-peak tariffs like Economy 7. Although Economy 7 offers a discounted rate for 7 nighttime hours, its daytime rate is higher. Consequently, all electricity consumed during the 17 daytime hours becomes more costly. To truly benefit, one would need to shift 40% of total electricity consumption to the 7-hour cheaper rate.
In today's fast-paced world, where comfort meets efficiency, the need for modern, cost-effective heating solutions has never been more crucial. If you're still relying on outdated night storage heaters, it's time to consider upgrading.
