Re: The energy crisis
We've got our central heating set around the middle of the range so it gets to around 60, but the hot water is on maximum simply because both Mrs G and I like a shower to have some oomph and this gives us a superb water flow - heating water just to cool it down with cold water is wasteful but at the moment we're happy to pay it. One thing I'm planning to change though is turn the water pre-heat off. I'll take some grief because she likes 'instant' hot water in the shower but that is a waste of gas. I wish when we were renovating the house we'd not put the boiler at the far end of the loft as it's crawling access only down that end!
