Boosting is a conceptually straightforward response to declines
in the capacity of a SHW system to produce sufficient hot water to
meet household demands during periods of cold or cloudy
weather. In practice, however, boosting entails a degree of complexity
that consumers must comprehend if they wish to maximize
efficiency, particularly if they use electric elements. In such
cases households are subject to another fixed system of provision,
namely the tariff system. Electricity demand is managed through
pricing mechanisms, known as tariffs, which attempt to spread
demand for electricity across a 24-h cycle. The most commonly
used tariff system is a combination of a single or domestic rate
tariff, used throughout the day for the majority of domestic power
usage, coupled with an off-peak tariff, metered separately and
time controlled to only operate during low demand periods
