The Problems With Night Storage Heaters
Uncomfortable, Wasting Heat, Wasting Money
Night storage heaters are known for making mornings uncomfortably warm. Although they aim to release heat gradually throughout the day, science gets in the way! The bigger the difference between the stored heat and the room temperature, the faster the heat escapes. This means the heater releases the most heat in the morning, right when you might not need it, leading to stuffy mornings.
Losing all that heat during the morning, often means you run out of heat in the evenings leaving you feeling chilly later in the day.
Night storage heaters are designed to soak up heat during the night. While this sounds great, it takes them a long time to warm up all those bricks before they start actually heating your room. This often means you'll need another heater to pick up the slack in the afternoons when the night storage runs out of steam.
Night storage heaters can't heat your home exactly when you want it. So, if you're not using your living room until the evening, the heater might be pumping out heat all day that you don't need. That just means wasted electricity and money down the drain!
Night storage heaters work best with special electricity plans called Economy 7. While these plans offer super cheap rates at night for heating the bricks, the daytime rate (called the E7 rate) is much more expensive than a normal plan. This can really add up if you're not careful!
Night storage heaters heat up way before you might actually need the warmth. This can be a waste if your plans change, or if the day turns out to be warmer than expected. That's like pre-heating your oven all day, even if you're not sure what you'll be cooking!
