Is it cheaper to have a paraffin heater or electric? I suspect from my research paraffin is cheaper, i can get it for 97p/l locally, and electric is generally expensive these days.

But what experience have the stw masses had?

Solar thermal storage is cheaper and fairly easy to do, I'm told. Working on a plan myself.

Would be interested in the details coffee king!

I use a paraffin heater and the days/nights that I need the heater, there would be bugger all solar gain, let alone enough to store.
