I live alone in a basement flat (poor me!) and its very expensive to heat up the whole flat when theres just me in it, usually in the front room, but aLWAYS in only one room at once. my question is about savings from turning off all the other radiators except the one in the front room. This should keep my bills down huh? I ask because to be honest since i did this, I havent noticed the boiler firing up less than it would do usually.
Im wondering if my logic is wrong about how it works, because when I use the hot water, its cheaper to keep the boiler temp high, fill up the sink, and add cold water. turning down the temp on the boiler for hot water produces colder water, but the boiler is still fired up all the time, so would cost more to produce the same amount of water.
