Are Storage Heaters Expensive to Buy?

You’ll be pleased to hear that our advanced and energy efficient German electric heating systems generally cost no more to buy than alternative systems. It’s important to mention that investing wisely in a cost effective heating system can be key in saving you money in the long run because you shouldn’t have to shell out for costly repairs if something goes wrong.

 

Why Not Buy Cheap Electric Heaters From a DIY Store?

Cheap to buy is rarely cheap to run when it comes to heating your home and investment in an efficient heating system is likely to cost several thousand pounds. However, most people would regard this as a wise investment that will return dividends in terms of comfort and control of your heating bill. Essentially, you pay for what you get.

 
Are Storage Heaters Expensive To Run?

Overall, running costs depend on a number of factors: your electricity tariff, the thermostat temperature setting, how your heating system is used (on, off or continuous) and the heat loss of the rooms, so it’s difficult to distinguish without knowing that information.

Are They Cheaper to Install In Comparison to Mains Gas?

It appears on the face of it that gas is cheaper to run than electricity. However, if you consider regular servicing and maintenance costs along with the cost of boiler replacement every 10 years, then things look very different. If you consider how much heat escapes via the flue and the overall inefficiency of gas boilers compared to electric then German electric storage heaters could come out on top.

 

Will They Save Me Money?

German storage heaters can potentially save you money on your utility bills.  With German electric storage radiators you will have total control of your energy efficient heating system so that you only consume the energy you need. You could choose a simple integrated digital thermostat or our industry leading advanced Warm App programme that can be operated on a smartphone or tablet.

 

Is Economy 7 The Cheapest Tariff?

Not always, as the daytime tariff is usually on a far higher inflated rate, meaning that the overall cost could be higher than being on the normal daytime tariff. However, it is also determined by how and when you use electricity.
