Electric heating - new house

5 replies

Hey all,
so I am potentially buying my first house very soon. However it has has electric heating. It appears to have the newish storage heaters but I don’t know much about any of this.
is it a bad idea to consider buying a house that’s fully electric given the current climate and cost of electricity a the moment?
I really do love the house but I am concerned about the potential costs.
should I consider reconnecting the gas and going back to that or something else?
suggestions are welcome 😊

Has it’s got solar panel system and a battery?

I don’t believe so

Storage heaters can be economical to run on a good tariff, particularly modern, computerised ones. It’s when people rip them out and replace them with panel heaters that the problems start.

You may want to get this moved to a more appropriate board, where you'll get more responses. This is the Home Ed board, which is for people educating their kids at home instead of school.

Good luck with buying your house! 🙂
