Change the switch for one of these:

(also come in "daily" or "7 day", depends how you want to set it)

Immersion heater up to 3kW should be fine.

Thanks - we've never really used the immersion before but we're using it a lot more at the moment whilst we don't have a shower (having a nightmare with a plumber - separate thread will be posted at some time!). Whats the general consensus on heating a tank full - cheaper with gas or electric?
