My second house in Hamilton has electric storage heaters installed. They are quite efficient but expensive to run. Wel Energy installed a dual electric supply for the house. The power to the heaters are controlled by timers for off-peak current after midnight. The oil inside these heaters are warm up during the night for a few hours and slowly radiate heat throughout the rest of the day when the power is off. This house is warmer and more comfortable than the previous house, especially after Christine bought a portable dehumidifyer (Mitsubishi) for use in winter. This is run in conjunction with the storage heaters to keep the house warm and dry. I no longer need to scrap and dry all the window panes in the morning in winter. That was such a hassle because I have so many windows in my house.
