[QUOTE="Apache, post: 79419, member: 828"] I have economy 7 and have no form of timer whatsoever. In 2 1/2 years we have used the boost element in the day twice, both times when we had been out the house and the eco 7 board switched off and needed a bit of hot water. Our's is on a sw fcu and that suits me fine (with a neon - gotta love em). Our main eco 7 immersion has no timer. I could see having one would be problematic as it only is live during the night, so the clock would be wrong by the second day! It will have a thermostat so unlikely to cost that much extra to run with no timer. The power to it has been off since 8am this morning and the hot water is still too hot to shower in 14 hours later! Just make sure it's well insulated. [/QUOTE]
