Storage based for different heating systems is only part of the equation. The true electric heating systems also provide continuous heat throughout cost is the lifetime costs of the system, which take into account the day, maintaining a consistent temperature in the building fabric. the fuel used and the hidden maintenance costs over its lifetime. This helps eliminate any long term building maintenance problems Electric heaters are 100% efficient at the point of use, so all associated with condensation, benefiting occupants with a healthier, the electricity used is converted directly into heat, unlike boiler- more comfortable living environment. based systems where energy is wasted through the flue.
