For air B&B properties this is a totally standard arrangement for when the property is empty, also on night storage heaters.

The biggest problem is some hirers think they are doing a good thing by lifting the DO NOT SWITCH OFF cover on isolators and switching them off.

You could use a bog standard smart relay to drive a contactor which then switches the load, it'll need a little wiring and some kind of enclosure though.

This tends to be the way it's done.

One of these is fine if the idea is not to control usage during tenant stays:

One of these can easily be left on advance and boost the leccy bill

I leave my car out in the cold all the time

Also one of the horsmann units had a physical switch for boost without any timer involved in that setting.

Not the unit I was thinking about but this modern version looks like both elements could be left on 24/7 (Subject to of peak being active)

I am sure it won't allow that
