Dimplex Duo Heat Storage Heater

Dimplex Duoheat Services in Loughton

Understanding Dimplex Duoheat – What’s Going On?

If you’ve got a Dimplex Duoheat storage heater in your property, you’re not alone. These heaters were once a popular choice across homes and flats in areas like Loughton, Debden, Woodford, Woodford Green, Chigwell, Buckhurst Hill and Chingford.

They were designed to give you the best of both worlds – cheap off-peak heating overnight, combined with a boost heater for instant warmth during the day.

But here’s the honest truth…

These heaters have now been discontinued by Dimplex.

That means:

  • No manufacturer support
  • No spare parts available
  • Common faults (especially circuit boards) can’t always be repaired

So if your Duoheat has stopped working, is behaving strangely, or not heating properly… you’re not imagining it. These units are reaching the end of their life.

And that’s where we come in.

Why This Service Matters

Heating isn’t just about comfort – it’s about safety, efficiency, and cost.

We see it all the time:

  • Heaters not charging overnight
  • Boost function stuck on or not working
  • Fault codes appearing with no clear fix
  • High electric bills with poor heat output

These old systems sit there quietly… doing less and costing more.

A bit like those old fuse boxes under the stairs…

Working… but not really working safely for today’s demand.

Sometimes it’s better to bring it into the light and deal with it properly.

Helpful Resources for Your Existing Duoheat

Before we even step foot in your property, we try to help you understand what’s going on.

We’ve put together:

  • A simple setup video showing how to correctly use the night storage settings
  • A fault-finding video to help diagnose common issues
  • A fault code download guide to identify what your heater is trying to tell you

This means:

You might fix the issue yourself
You’ll understand the problem before calling us
We arrive prepared if you do need us

No guesswork. No confusion. Just clear, honest guidance.

Our Dimplex Duoheat Services in Loughton

Although the Duoheat itself is discontinued, that doesn’t mean you’re stuck.

At Tack Electrical, we offer practical, honest solutions tailored to your situation.

Fault Diagnosis & Honest Advice

We don’t just turn up and say “you need a new one.”

We:

  • Assess the heater properly
  • Use your fault codes and symptoms
  • Check power supply, controls, and wiring

Then we give you a straight answer:

  • Can it be reset or adjusted?
  • Is it a known board failure?
  • Is replacement the best option?

No fluff. No upselling. Just facts.

Replacement Heating Solutions

When repair isn’t possible (which is often the case now), we help you move forward.

We can:

  • Recommend modern, efficient storage heaters
  • Upgrade to panel heaters or smart heating options
  • Ensure your system works with your tariff (Economy 7 etc.)

And most importantly…

We design it around how YOU use your home.

Not just what’s on the shelf.

Electrical Upgrades to Support New Heating

Here’s something many people don’t realise…

Older heating systems often highlight bigger electrical issues:

  • Outdated fuse boards
  • Circuits not designed for modern loads
  • Lack of RCD protection

So when we install or upgrade heating, we:

  • Check your electrical system
  • Ensure it’s safe and compliant
  • Future-proof where possible

Because there’s no point installing new heating on old electrics that can’t support it.

Support for Homeowners, Landlords & Businesses

Whether you’re:

  • A homeowner fed up with unreliable heating
  • A landlord needing compliant, efficient systems
  • A business with electric heating issues

We tailor the solution to your needs, budget, and property.

Bringing Awareness – Not Just Doing the Job

Just like those old fuse boxes…

These heaters have had their time.

They were built for a different era, different loads, different expectations.

  • More appliances

Sometimes it’s better to know the truth than keep things ticking along in the dark.

We bring it into the light.

From unknown… to known.
