ATM I can't quite understand why this was done.
The flat still has the Economy 7, 2 rate meters
I don't know if this metering system is still operating in any valid
sense.

I also don't know if the flat's night storage circuitry has been
replaced or just utilized to supply these new heating panels.

Either way I'm hoping that I can reverse the process and get the night
storage system back without to much disruption and cost.

Any advice on this would be much appreciated.


The problem with night storage heaters is they dont.
Store. Or heat.

Lovely in the mornings... icy cold by sunset

You need somethong with more thermal capacity than that, but you cant
fit it in the small flats.

Air source heatpump might be a better bet
