So here's my story I moved into my property bungalow built in 1968 brick construction most internal walls are brick. I received my first gas bill as an estimate from previous owners consumption and itbwas astronomical so called scottishgas and gave true readings the bill I received I still thought was high so spoke with a few people and had a couple of companies out to.look atbtge heating system both said that the wosctier system was good back in its daybeds good but getting a new combi boiler installed would make significant drop in bills so got a valiant installed but bills are still massive. What're the chances of my gas meter being off its the original 1968 item. My bill over Xmas quarter was nearly 600 and I wasn't keeping it.on constant just when I needed it then this quarter it was 400 and I've used it sparingly.
TTinight I switched the heating on checked the meter and noticed the dial speeding up and slowing down???? So I timed each quarter of the dials rotation and 1st quarter 22 secs 2nd 29secs 3rd 33secs and 4th 22secs so yes it wasn't a consistent rotation. Once the heating was up to temp I retimed the rotation on the meter 1st 24secs 2nd 32secs 3rd 34secs and 4th 27 secs is this how a meter normally behaves?????
Any advise would be most appreciated!!!!
