Bathroom Design Ideas

It is a good idea to add a timer to your immersion heater so that you have hot water at regular times, such as mornings and evenings. It also saves energy, as the timer will allow the immersion heater to switch itself off after a certain amount of time, which is useful as you may forget to switch it off yourself otherwise. Immersion heater timers are affordable, so it is definitely worth purchasing one so that your heating bills will not be as high.

There are many different types of timers to choose from. Gi-Lec offer a digital timer, which has around six different types of settings so that you can set the timer for a time that suits you. The timer is available in white, has a neat box shape and is priced at £23.96. They also stock pin timers, which are easy to use and have a self-cancelling feature.

Maplin also provides a selection of timers that are easy to use. Their electronic immersion heater timer is £26.99 and has a two-button system, making it easy to programme. It also has a self-cancelling feature and an off-switch for when you are using a different type of heating.

As well as fixing a timer onto your immersion heater, you can also use one for other heated products, such as heated towel rails, heated mirrors or panel heaters. Try fixing a timer to these items if you have them so you reduce the amount of energy that you use. Having lots of heated products means that you may forget to switch one or two off, so it is extremely useful having a timer that does the job for you.
