Electric storage heaters
Electric storage heaters contain either ceramic or clay bricks to retain heat, they generally use off-peak electricity overnight to store the heat in the bricks, which is then released in the daytime to heat your home. Most models are 100% efficient as all of the electricity is converted to heat, but you should make sure you are on a suitable off peak electricity tariff such as economy 7, otherwise it is a very expensive way of heating your home.
The advantages of electric storage heaters are:
​
-
Simple to install
-
Zero carbon emissions if on a renewable tariff
-
Energy efficient
-
Less servicing cost
-
Long service life
