'A cap of £2,500, that’s not a realistic amount to be capping energy bills at for anyone who’s struggling now' Sleaford Lincolnshire
Jason Andrews, of J & S Plumbing and Heating writes his first column for The Lincolnite with tips and tricks for saving money on your energy bills this winter.
If you have a combi boiler then think about how often do you run a bath or a sink of water to then add cold water in, so you can put your hands in safely? We fill the sink with 65 degrees water and then add cold water to bring it to a level where we can put our hands in. Turn your combi boiler hot water down to 43 degrees to prevent waste.
Range rating is where you can turn down the boiler to use less gas than the standard as set out of the box. Your heating is where you use most of your gas and with some combi boilers you can range rate the heating to reduce your heat output to suit your home requirements. Old inefficient radiators are approximately 2/3 as effective as newer ones due to the convectors on the new radiators holding the heat for longer. Look at your radiators and if they don’t have convection fins then consider upgrading them to reduce the amount of time your boiler is firing up.
