ECONOMY 9 Heater replacement

[Sav]

Hi everyone,
Just watched the spurs get beaten by Portsmouth !!!!!!

Anyway, I have a job to do this week, which is to repalce an old Dimplex storage / convector heater with a new Dimplex Dualheat one.

The current heater runs on economy 9 and there are 2 fcu's on the wall next to the heater. The 2 flex cables that come out of the heater go to each one (one for economy 9 and one for the convector).

Has anyone got any tips or advice as to putting in the new heater, as in things to look out for or programming.

I will try to call Dimplex and see if it is a straight forward replacement, but would rather ask you first !!

Thanks and regards ,

Sav

Be careful how you handle the bricks - I found them to be quite fragile and bits broke off easily. Also best warn the customer that they(the rads!) smell awful for the first 24 hours!
