No Portable night storage heaters?

but make sure you turn the power off 1st

That video may not help much as there are many designs of over heat trip and some are not at all obvious where you push to reset it, and at least one you need to take it out to even gat at the reset bit. Oh and some have thermal fuses.

I know, Dave, that's why I asked the OP if they had a model number.

also be aware many contain asbestos linings. not much risk removing outer cover, but definitely is if you remove inner cover to change elements

Should that not be a requirement for LL to replace with an asbestos free storage heater then? How would one know if there is asbestos in there?

Have a re-read of my post#10.. I think you will find the whole issue is your landlords responsibility!

Thank you again, but I am right now fearful if LL will jack the price of rent up so I will say nothing.

I have also found another solution. Electric blankets and ajar windows.

Basically you keep your windows ajar for airflow to prevent mould on the walls and condensation on the windows, and just wrap up under an electric heated blanket to stay warm. Saves a fortune in heating!

You can invest in one king size version to fit yer bed £35 from B&M and toasty warm while you sleep.
As for the living room, your requirements may vary, but for me, 2 single heater blankets and a robe, because that increases the amount of play of heat you want! 1 single to sit on, one single as a cover, (and extra heat if needed) and a robe to retain warmth for going to the toilet.

It all uses less watts than my smallest electric heater (425w) and Im more than toasty warm!
