[QUOTE="KatieLove, post: 460350, member: 29978"] Hi, In my home I have 4 Steible Eltron heaters. All work apart from the one in my bedroom. I had an electrician in over a week ago who managed to get it working for a day. The night It was fixed it was turned off before I went to bed and the next day it wasn’t working again at all. The electrician told me that the element in it had burnt out but now I am being woken up during the night because it is sparking and a loud noise appears. It has happened twice that I know about. The switch to power the heater has been off so I don’t understand how it can spark? I’m worried that it will be happening when I am out of the house and may cause a fire? I am currently 7 months pregnant so would like to know that everything is safe? On a separate note when I turn the other heaters on/off at the switch there appears to be a green spark behind the plug when they’re turned on/off. Anyone got advice? Thanks [/QUOTE]
