Anyone have advice on electric panel heaters please?

[beansprout]

Hi,

I have recently moved into an all electric flat - not huge at all and currently has economy 7 heating.

It and I are not getting along so I am looking at alternatives and panel radiators seem to be the answer.

Does anyone have advice? Gas is not an alternative.!! Sadly.

Really trying to stay warm and be in a position to use heating when I want - I rent so would to convince my landlords/agent.

I am assuming that if panel radiators were an option then one would loose eceonomy 7 rates? No dish washer or washing machine to consider.

Thanks all

From what I knew/know about Economy 7 it's an old style tariff set up to benefit storage heater users, which heat up at night, and then release their heat during the day. It means you can also do things like washing and drying at night, at a cheaper tariff, although unless you run a laundry, what is the point.

If you are paying the bills there, and you don't have storage heaters, then ask the utility company to change tariffs.
