Recommendations on electrical tariff and payment method
It is recommended that if possible you pay for your electricity by regular direct debit payments direct to your
energy supplier. This method of payment will allow you to spread the costs of your heating bills more
evenly throughout the year and offers the cheapest cost of electricity per unit (kWh). Pre payment meters
will charge more per unit of electricity used resulting in your heating costing you more to run.
While different tariffs will be available from your electricity supplier such as Economy 7 or 10 type, we
suggest that a standard tariff will be the most appropriate starting point. The choice of electrical supplier,
payment method and tariff is of course entirely your choice and should be selected to best suit your lifestyle
and reviewed thereafter.
Remember when reviewing the annual running costs of your heating to take into account that you do not
have any gas bills to pay.
