Default Hoping to de-modernise flat heating system.

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.


There are an awful lot of very stupid people out there.

The same sort of people watch 'Homes under the Hammer' and
get the ideas from that program -

"BAxi Bermuda BAck boiler = BAD, Combo Boiler = Good"
Ditto storage radiators.

If your electric *tariff* is still E7 then just acquire some
storage heaters and connect them back up. I'll be surprised
if you still are on an E7 tariff though.
