Electric Storage Heater (High Heat Retention)

High heat retention storage heaters are modern electric heaters designed to store heat during off-peak hours (usually overnight) and release it throughout the day. These systems are smart and efficient heating solutions, ideal for homes without access to gas. They are a popular option under the ECO4 scheme, offering an energy-efficient upgrade for low-income or off-gas households. These heaters come with smart controls and better insulation — helping you stay warm while reducing energy bills and carbon emissions.

Fan-Assisted Electric Storage Heater

Fan-assisted storage heaters release stored heat more quickly and evenly, using a built-in fan to circulate warm air throughout your home. They're ideal for larger rooms or for households needing a faster heating response. Eligible households may receive these through a government grant for electric heating, fully funded under ECO4. Installation is quick, and the benefits are long-lasting in terms of comfort and cost savings.

Modern Panel Heater (Secondary Heating Option)

Modern panel heaters are often used alongside electric storage heaters in bedrooms, hallways, or bathrooms for added comfort. While not always covered as primary systems, some properties may qualify for panel heater replacements if part of a full-home upgrade. Speak to Econext to find out whether your property qualifies for these government-funded electric heating upgrades under the ECO4 scheme.
