    How to setup hotwater for off peak only?

    Hi all, Thank you for your help! I've crunched the numbers and have decided that it will actually be cheapest to switch from an economy 7 to a standard tariff since it is only the water heater that would be operating at night. This also saves having someone come out and modify the existing...

    How to setup hotwater for off peak only?

    I have noticed that if I flick the 'normal supply' and 'off-peak supply' switches on the BX2000 to the on positions, this light comes on and stays indefinitely. The boost buttons also do not do anything. I cannot recall what happens if only the 'off-peak supply' is turned on.

    How to setup hotwater for off peak only?

    Hi, I've recently moved into a new all electric flat and am unsure how to correctly operate the hot water system to have it heat during off peak times. The tank has two heating elements, that are both connected to a socket in the wall and also to a control box (BX2000) with individual...
