Storage Heater Update: it's even worse now!
Post Body

So I posted, last week, about this heater not working overnight even though the instant heating was working. Had an electrician look at it and he said a piece of metal had expanded that triggered some kind of switch that turns it off and he switched it back on and removed some dust and debri. He said it should work now and even wired the fuse spur to his own plug to double check in the regular socket next to it.

Well, it heated up to 25 degrees that night, but then when I tried to turn it down, the following days, even all the way down to the MINIMAL settings it's still pumping out 25-27 degrees, for most of the day! The switch on the fuse spur doesn't quite turn off either now. I can push it down then it pops back up to on. Thinking I've been swindled 😬. I'm guessing the thermostat is just completely busted now and I need to call out another electrician?
