Originally they would have been storage heaters, but are now just regular electric. My assumption is that i have a day circuit and a night circuit, where the night circuit only works after 11pm. What i need to know is basically, how do i fix this? Is it something i need to get an electrician to do in my apartment, or do the ESB need to do something with my meter?
