I've been troughing round the net trying to find an answer to this, or at least some clues as to how to work it out for myself, but I haven't been able to find anything of use. Pointers to useful information would be much appreciated.
We rent our property, so there's not a lot of scope for changing plumbing, insulation and so on. My wife has been told that one way we could save on the gas bill is to run the hot water system 24/7. This seems counter-intuitive to me, but the source of the information was apparently a British Gas chap.
Our setup is a gas powered Baxi Solo 2 50 RS, feeding an insulated hot water tank (airing cupboard) and the radiators. Each function is on a seperate timer. The boiler was recently gas-safety checked and is functioning at 74% efficency.
I'd appreciate any information that the group my be able to share that will allow me to prove/disprove this idea.
Thanks in advance.
