How much do immersion heaters cost to run?

FAQ banner image

Immersion heaters will typically tend to use around three kilowatts of electricity per hour, leading to average running costs of 50p per hour.

Given that the majority of households will need to have their immersion heater switched on for at least two hours a day to ensure the water is hot enough, energy bills totalling £360 plus are to be expected. There are alternative affordable electric heating styles to consider also.
