A slow decline of the past but still pleasant enough.

18.3c dining room, 18.6c hallway, 19.1c lounge and 20.1c in the upstairs bedroom.

Relative humidity in the low 70's.

A slow decline through the day. Outside its been windy, wet and increasingly cool.

This evening I've broken out the onesie.

Temps:

Hallway 18.1c, Dining room 18.3c, lounge 19.1c, bedroom (west facing upstairs) 18.7c.

We will be in the 17's tomorrow, perhaps 18c in the lounge.

Some afternoon sunshine may arrest the fall somewhat, we shall see. 

Into the 16's ! 

Hallway 16.8c, Dining room 16.8c, lounge 17.9c, bedroom 18.8c.

We are all out at work and school today so it won't be needed until this evening. If no-one notices the chill this evening I'll leave the heating off. I rather suspect it will get switched for a bit though.

Recent winters I put heat on from 7am to 10pm from Nov to Feb or early March. Will do that from Friday as expected full sunny day bring on warmth inside to the 20C then turn on with thermostat at 20C same time so when sun goes it and drop to 19.5 inside it will switch on for short time back to 20C so less gas usage and stay this way.  Overnight with shutters closed should keep temps 19C or 19.5C so quick back to 20C next morning. This should limited to £2 a day.

Condensation on the lounge window this morning. Windy outside.

22.5c with the heating on low. 

I weakened and put the heating on for two hours yesterday, to raise temp to 20.6 C; now back down to 18.8 C

A warm and windy night with outside temps around 15c prevented any fall of internal temperature last night.

This morning we have 16.8c hallway, 17.0c dining room, 17.9c lounge and 17.8c bedroom.

No need for heating just yet.

The thermostat is set to 16c. It will probably trigger if we get a clear and calm night soon.

Gloomy and wet outside so the heating is on in the bungalow.

22.1c At the moment.

The heating finally clicked on this morning at 06:30 when the hallway temperature fell to the thermostat setting of 16c. 

A decision has now been taken to set the thermostat to 18c during the daytime, reduced to 16c overnight.

A very impressive run to get this far without it. Fingers crossed for a mild winter now. 

12.0c In the shed. The electric heater will not be turned on in the shed until a cold period happen.

22.6 in the S-facing living room yesterday afternoon in strong sunshine but down to 17.5 after a cold night - there'll be a bit of heating on later today.

22.0c Heating on low.

i was using over £300 a month last winter (electric only) which would be £450+ at today’s prices. 

I have just replaced out heating with an air source heat pump and underfloor heating although I am having some issues with the ASHP and it is still not working properly. However it does seem to be able to heat the downstairs with no problem even though we don’t have our patio doors fitted and just have a draughty sheet of plywood and polystyrene over the hole!

Only really the last couple of days I’ve had to use it as the temp dropped to 18C which is a bit cooler than my family will put up with. 

22.5 Indoor temperature. Heater on.

EDF latest Bill £283

Received £66 monthly until April 2023 From EDF.

Winter Fuel Payment Due In £250. Soon.

19.9c at 07:30 this morning. 22.5c At present 10:22.

16.5 downstairs (heating on, set to 16.5) and 18.7C upstairs.

The heating has been on a fair bit recently, more in the past few days than for the previous month!

ATM, an hour a day heating keeps the indoor temp hovering around 18C. There'll be a big boost if we get a sunny day with the large S-facing windows. 

Gas heating for an hour costs £1, plus of course the standing charge.

Same here when turn heat on and set at 19C so it hover often at 18.5 to 19C.  Did not put at 20 as it take longer to warm up from this current cool spell as it would take nearly 2 hours. By Thursday will set at 20C as first day of very mild weather coming to help heating boost then hope stay off for few days as long there sunshine to keep warm inside.

Combi boiler temps set at 65C for heating and 50C for hot water.

What about anyone of you set their boiler temps?

We have a combi boiler, hot water is set to 50c and heating at 60C.  Our gas engineer thinks 60c is best to maximise condensing effects, but online some recommend 75c so not sure which is best. 

Spent £20 on gas this month including hot water. Generally having heating on 2/3 times a day at the moment to try and maintain 18c when people are in the house sedentary for large periods. 

Gas usage for this week in November is less than half of that for the same week last year. 

We have three new radiators and 35m2 of new floor space in an extension which I am not heating yet as not quite decorated, will be interesting to see how much of a difference that makes.
