Storage Heater Repair

[Avo Mk8]

As above, parts available here:Storad Charge Controller- AA0440 - http://www.storageheater.co.uk/charge-controller-2.html

If you buy the Creda convector (which by the way is LOT20 compliant) you will presumably be burning day-rate electricity at three times the price of that which feeds the storage heater?

To close out this thread.
In the end I had to get rid of the storage heater. Just was unable to find anyone to who even wanted to work on repairing it. The closest I found was a storage heater specialist that said it would be in the region of £300. In the end I removed the whole unit myself and have fitted a, Electrorad Aeroflow instead. Highly recommended German unit. Wasn't cheap, but least it's a modern unit with a big guarantee/warranty and it can be used during the day, as required. It has some heat retention capabilities (via ceramic plates).

Thank you for the update.

Many thread starters ask a question, get a reply and then bugger off…. Never to be seen again.

Electric heaters do end up being replaced rather than repaired, just due to accessibility of spare parts, dust getting into them, or usually at least one cup of coffee been spilled in it. Just not worth the time or effort.

best of fitting a rointe or simlar loads of cheaper brands now. no doubt your heater elements are near to dust and bricks will be in a 100 pieces
