Turn Your Thermostat Down

Simply reducing your thermostat temperature setting by 1? could save you up to £75 per year. This is an easy way to lower your bill without noticing a difference in your heating.

Understand Your Heating System

We advise that you take some time to learn how your heating system works. Familiarise yourself with all the controls so your heating is used in the most cost-effective way. For example, an average home takes 30 minutes to cool down (longer in a well-insulated property), so consider turning off the heating half an hour before bedtime.

Move Furniture Away from Radiators

The foam in upholstered furniture absorbs heat, which will prevent the rest of the room warming up.

Manage Temperature

Lower your heating bills by keeping the temperature of your home between 18 and 21?.

Don't Dry Clothes on Radiators

Drying your washing on radiators makes your heating system work harder. This wastes energy and causes condensation, which can lead to damp problems.
