Off peak switch for boiler

[Mozza84]

I've moved into a new flat and have managed to change my tariff with EDF to a better value plan. There is a cheaper price for evening use.

I have two switches on the wall and connected to my boiler one that says "off peak". They were both switched on when I moved in and I am not sure how it works. If I want the boiler to work at night only, do I leave the "off peak" watched on and the other off?

May be an odd question but was hoping there would be someone with a similar setup?

Hi all, having looked at this the seperately off peak circuit breaker was off. I switched on and the off peak switch light was on.

However, the buzzing noise from the circuit board was so loud we had to sleep with ear plugs! This is probably why the previous Tennant's turned it off and used the boost only.

Any ideas how to resolve this and what is causing it?

Thanks.

Get an electrician in to check the board and possibly replace the circuit breaker(s).

I think it's definitely time to get a sparky in to confirm exactly how things are set up, and that it is wired correctly/ safely.
