In a time of rising fuel costs, what can you do to reduce the cost of your bills?

The recent announcement from Ofgem that the price cap on energy costs has been raised, means that many households will see their energy bills rise significantly.

So what can you do to keep that increase to a minimum?

The Heatinghub.co.uk has provided information regarding how to ensure that your boiler is working at its most efficient in order to help reduce the impact of these rising energy prices and help you keep your home warm.

The information covers changes that can be made to both combi-boilers and boilers utilising a hot water cylinder.

Ultimately, if you can reduce the flow temperature on your boiler then it will use less energy to heat the water going through it. It is important to ensure that if you have a hot water cylinder that you keep the flow temperature high enough to kill off legionella bacteria which can grow in standing water. This is not an issue for combi-boilers in which the water is continually flowing through the system.
