Hello

I have an issue with my immersion heater I was hoping the group might
be able to help me with. I am on Economy 7 and since the clocks went
back, the immersion heater is not heating the water up to it's normal
temperature. I am not sure if it is a problem with the heating element
or the timer on the heater, I have had a look at the thermostat and it
is set to 50.

Have you got any ideas about to fix it please?

TIA
M

What is the "Normal temperature".

50(c?) seems to be on the low side.

60c is the usual setting here in the UK.

I doubt daylight savings had to do with it. sounds more like a delayed Y2K
bug.
