We have recently moved into a bungalow and in the cold spell had the rads on a bit,being a tight sort I read the meter once a week to give myself an idea of how much we are using.
After doing some calcs using the last bill as a guide we used £39 worth of gas in the last week
The system heats the water twice per day,1 hour in the morning and 2 hours in the evening and I only try to have the rads on when the kids are getting frostbite
Why is it costing so much,it is an old baxi back boiler but I can't belive it's costing this much.
We had a quote for a combi to be fitted keeping the existing rads getting rid of cylinder and loft tanks but the came in at £3500 so we have put it off at the mo as out of our budget range.
