Top 10 Money / Energy Saving Tips:
1. Have your boiler serviced at least once a year. An efficient boiler will save you money.
2. Regularly check your heating system for leaks.
3. Keep all radiators free from any obstructions.
4. Insulate your house... Did you know that 20% of all heat is lost through the roof so insulating your attic could really save you money! Put a lagging jacket on your hot water cylinder to keep your water hotter for longer.
5. By ordering larger quantities of oil you will get better discounts.
6. Heat bedroom areas to less than 18*C.
7. In other living areas 20*C is an ideal room temperature.
8. Turn down your Thermostat… If you turn down your thermostat by just 1 degree, you could save a massive 10% of your Home Heating Bill.
9. Turn off the heating overnight and when you are out during the day.
10. Never run out of oil: Apart from the discomfort and inconvenience, you may have the additional cost of a plumber to pay, to have your system bled and get it restarted. It will also cost more to heat your home to the required temperature again.
