18C seems a little bit low (to me anyway).

Mine runs at 22C in the evenings, plus as a boost in the early morning (when little one gets up) - the rest of the time it runs at 21.5C.

Hive shows my boiler runs for an average of 3 hours a day atm (for heating).
On top of that, my water runs for 30 minutes, 3 times a day.

My current gas usage (according to my bills) is about 1000 kWh per month.

My electricity use is always way higher than the so called "average".
I have no ide how anyone manages to only use 3000 kWh per year, I use at least double that.

Could I cut either down ? Probably ..
I work from home and my grandaughter lives with us.
Therefore I'm not inclined to be sitting here getting cool.
