=== Thermostatic controls === <!-- Deleted image removed: [[File:StorageHeaterThermostatic.JPG|right|250px|thumb|Thermostatic controls on a more advanced storage heater]] --> A thermostatic storage heater will automatically regulate the temperature in a room throughout the day. However, the operator may wish to switch the thermostatic switch to the minimum setting overnight to lower the room temperature. If the room is empty during the day, it is better to keep the thermostat at the minimum setting and then increase the setting when the room is occupied in the evening. Some thermostatic heaters also make use of on-peak electricity when there is not enough stored heat to maintain the requested temperature; the user may wish to be aware of this and lower the settings.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2021-02-15 |title=Test The Water Heater Thermostat |url=https://waterheaterpicks.com/steps-to-test-the-water-heater-thermostat/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210420112336/https://waterheaterpicks.com/steps-to-test-the-water-heater-thermostat/ |url-status=usurped |archive-date=April 20, 2021 |access-date=2022-03-09 |website=Water Heater Picks |language=en-US}}</ref>
