Yes. They can be a solution for heating a small flat but they cost a fortune to run in comparison to gas or oil

Yes i've fitted them aswell,they are very easy to fit and work very well,don't know the life expectancy of them though,but would be a doddle to change,perfect for flats without gas

Had various customers already with broken pump over runs. Telling them the price for the new PCB fitted usually had more effect than peeling onions.
Only few have the overrun on a seperate board.
You need to be carefull with the tariff you are using.
Better is the usage of an heat store unless you are trying to heat a large uninsulated house. I know all-electric 2 Bedroom Flats which have average £40 energy cost with the built in heat store. Because of the nature of the building there were no flues, aerials and so on allowed. But obviously it works great for the customers.

Have a customer with one, I'm ripping it out later in the month, and she's having night storeage put back in, she was getting bills of over £600 per quarter through last winter!

Very popular or should I say needed in city centre apartments.

As for the cost then yes both to run and repair would leave you in amazement.
