Why immersion heater electrics in Bath is different

Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage city — most properties are Georgian or Victorian and many are Listed. Outdoor and bathroom electrical work here means careful coordination with conservation officers, minimal-intervention cable routes, and respect for original fabric (stone walls, lath-and-plaster ceilings, original cornice). We do a lot of work in central Bath terraces, hillside villas in Bathwick and Lansdown, and BA2 villages like Combe Down and Bathampton.

Common questions

Will you damage Listed fabric in a Bath property?

No. We use minimal-intervention routes — cables run under floorboards, in joist voids, behind existing skirting, or surface clip-direct on stone where chases would damage fabric. For Listed buildings we coordinate with the conservation officer or your architect before first-fix and document everything for the LBC.

Why does my immersion heater keep tripping the RCD?

Almost always a failed immersion element — when the Incoloy element corrodes, water leaks into the heating core and goes to earth. The RCD trips because there's a real earth fault. We test insulation resistance with a Megger, confirm element failure, isolate the supply and quote a replacement element with parts and labour.

Can I run my immersion on Economy 7 to save money?

Yes if you have an Economy 7 meter and the tank has two elements (or a single element you're happy to use overnight only). We wire two FCUs — one for the off-peak bottom element on the Economy 7 circuit, one for a 'boost' top element on standard tariff. A timer switches the off-peak circuit during the cheap-rate window.
