change our electric storage heaters to save money?

Clay-cored electric heaters are not a “new system”, and advertising used to market them is frequently misleading. All electrical resistance heaters cost exactly the same to run, because 100 per cent of the electrical power is converted into heat. Any claim that these radiators use 30- 40 per cent less electricity to heat a room cannot be true.

a storage heater over 10 years old may not have as good quality insulation, so if you work and come home to a cold house, you may consider an upgrade but as we said - All electrical resistance heaters cost exactly the same to run, because 100 per cent of the electrical power is converted into heat, its up to you to use the energy / heat efficiently

  1. In my opinion home temperature stability today specially in cold countries is very difficult. Because everyone can't afford the costly temperature moderating systems. But with storage heaters everyone can control temperature in a cold and warm weather with affordable prices.
