I think it’s almost false economy an hour in the morning an hour at night, I’ve been doing various “experiments “ to see what things cost, if you are trying to heat your house up for an hour it will probably never get to temperature before it stops, then again at night, I found for example it cost me £3 to do this, but only another £3 to heat the house for a further 10 hours, the reason is it hits temperature say 18/19 and then it stops but your boiler has used the most gas to get to this, then it drops half a degree before it kicks back in, then it takes very little to get back up to temperature using far less gas. Of course we are at home all day, if we weren’t then we would probably only do a few hours a day, but it all depends on your circumstances.
No idea mate but that’s what I’m getting off my reading, possibly if conditions were both exactly the same on each day then a truer reading would be better, but it seems to have knocked £1/2 off the bill, which is £30/60 a month!
That was me saying £25 for the Day.Thats combination of gas and electric, We have a fully insulated garden Room that's pretty Big ,we were entertaining (watching the footy)& the only heating is the electric heater down there.I'm back to £18 a day now (combined), & that's with a coal fire Burning in the living room. Around the rest of the house it's set at16.5 degrees constant 24/7
30/60£ a month is very nice saving..
I’m in a similar situation.
cheaper than a leccy heater i'd say
Gas is a lot cheaper at the moment , i have an electric radiator which is good for one room but that would cost a lot more apparantly
In our case it’s the bloody windows that are mentioned in the listing. So no double glazing for us.
Can you not add secondary internal glazing? It’s not as good as double glazing and doesn’t look great but it might be worth considering.
We did but the cost for something so sub optimal put us off.
That's a big boiler.
