Electric only heating

[joanne78]

We only have electric heating and are currently on a powercard meter which we're thinking of changing to pay monthly. at the moment we have an electric fire and de-longhi electric heaters but I'm sure there must be less expensive ways to heat the house as they do tend to cost a bit. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations?

Thanks

joanne

Ignore kevplumb, he's a wet heating man

Electric storage heaters are one solution with economy 7 tarrif. An alternative is a Gledhill thermal store and wet radiators and something like economy 10 tarrif.

Electricity is expensive compared to other energy sources, but the maintenance costs are VERY low.
