7 economy?

[lennox]

Hi all

Iv got a elderly custumer that wants to replace their storage heaters and im thinking of replacing them with rointe kryos heaters.

my question is, the storage heaters are fed via a eccomony 7 meter,so if I put my new rointe heaters in they wont be able to be used during the day.

if they contact theyre supplier will they change the meter/trariff soit can be used in the day a meter feeding two boards or will I simpley have to put in a henley block to feed the heater board aswell as the main board?

thanks

Re: 7 economey?

If you/ the customer no longer need off peak ( what about o/n water heating?) then the supplier should be asked to change the meter to a standard tariff. On E7 they would otherwise be paying more for their day rate, with no off peak benefit.

Why don't you suggest a storage heater with a 24h boost facility, or maybe suggest that they contact there supplier for a modern e7 or e10( think its n power)

SSE do economy 10 as well.

Storage heaters with convectors used properly aren't that bad.

If not used properly they are horribly expensive.

Iv got the rointes at home and really like them with auto setting so they kick in and out to keep the room/rooms at certain temp tbh. Not got any experience with the economy 7/tarrif side as always had gas myself until this place which is a key meter!

But yeah ill try to get them to speak to their supplier about a possible economy 10 if it's possible with who ever there with!

E10 might suit, get 2 off peak boost in day/ early evening.

E10, off peak times midnight to 5am, 1pm to 4pm , 8pm t 10pm.

So with the e10 meter i take it it's the same as a e7 meter in two outgoining from the meter?

Not necessarily, if no dedicated off peak board, will apply to general domestic set up .

There is at the moment a dedicated board, just trying to do the quote you see so working out what I need to do with the supply

thanks for for your help chaps
