[QUOTE="binky, post: 538310, member: 490"] So at say 15mins for a good shower, at 40p per kWh, that's 80pence. How much are you going to spend to save that money? Most obvious answer to me is to use a solar diverter such as Solic which can handle a 3 kw immersion. The booster element at the top of the tank should be sufficient for a quick wash, but a funny thing is that these elements will never heat the full tank of water due to stratification ie the water doesn't mix itself with cold water lower down the tank.
