The Benefits of Upgrading to Lot20 Compliant Heaters

Today’s Lot20 compliant units offer advanced features such as precise electronic thermostats, programmable timers, and open-window detection sensors. These improvements allow for far better heat retention and distribution, ensuring you only use energy when you actually need it. Upgrading to a modern system can significantly improve your home's thermal efficiency compared to older night storage heaters.

Answers to common questions about our Electric Storage Heaters in Steyning
Can you repair my old night storage heater in Steyning?
Yes. Many older models can be brought back to life by replacing the heating elements or the thermal cut-out switches. If you notice your heater is not getting hot or is only warming up partially, we can visit your Steyning home to diagnose the problem and source the correct parts.
What exactly is Lot20 compliance?
Lot20 is a regulation designed to make electric heaters more efficient. Any new storage heater installed today must have intelligent controls, such as a programmable timer and a fan-assisted output, to reduce energy waste. This makes the heater much more responsive to how you actually use your home compared to the old manual versions.
How do storage heaters save money with Economy 7?
They are designed to charge up during the night when your electricity provider charges a lower rate per kilowatt-hour. By shifting your heavy energy usage to these off-peak hours, you can significantly lower your heating costs compared to using standard electric radiators or plug-in heaters during the day.
Is it difficult to replace an old heater with a modern one?
In most cases, it is a straightforward swap. However, modern heaters are often more compact and require slightly different electrical connections to support their digital timers and fans. We check your existing cabling and wall fixings to make sure the new unit is safe, secure, and compliant with Part P building regulations.
