Unvented or water heater

[Millsy 82]

My partner and me have bought a house and it's all electric, we have a vented cylinder in the airing cupboard but I am taking one of the walls down so have got to remove the tank stand for the cwsc so was thinking of just putting a little under counter water heater in as all I've got to feed is 1 sink and 1 basin, there is no bath and currently has electric shower.

Now I'm thinking of maybe putting a small unvented in as I think it may be cheaper to heat off economy 7 even though I will be heating a load more water than I actually need.

Little unvented water heater off Eco will be very good and you can get spares later on eg immersions etc without getting shafted

Unvented and ditch the electric shower?

I was going to say an unvented would give you greater flexibility in the future

That's what I was thinking or eventually we might put a bath in.

Would you not want gas central heating?

No gas in the village.

No room to put oil tank or bulk storage LPG, don't really want small LPG bottles and we are not looking to stay over 5 years so don't want to fork out a fortune on a heat pump.

At the moment it has electric underfloor heating which according to the neighbours is not that bad to run.
