OR - leave in- or outlet open when in electric mode. OR - close both in- and outlet fully and bleed the valve when the radiator is hot, close the valve, creating a vacuum when the radiator cools..
what controller do you have and does it still work 2 years on. i have heard they can be prone to failing quite quickly...I wanted to get a wifi controller, but have decided a timer built in on the element itself might be good enough.
I'm no plumber, I definately admit! But I don't think this will work well as - if you don't shut the rad off to use for electric, then you won't just heat that radiator, the heated water will start to go around the rest of the central heating system, so would be highly inefficient at getting really hot and cost a fortune to run - that's how I understand it anyway!
Thank you. Most helpful.
Glad it was helpful!

What if all your radiators are dual fuel? Does that mean that you can use it Hybrid? So your boiler and electric work together? For example in Winter.

But from electric to central heating?
