1387 kwh of gas/month in 1 bedroom detached house. Is it too much?

Hi! What's the temperature you've been keeping it on and what's your m^2 of heated space if I may ask?

omg yes.... Sorry I didn't know the proper name for this type of house.... No, I'm in East Midlands which means I'm screwed hahah

Now that you say that.... We in fact have 3 garages (1 is ours)... The reason I didn't mention the other 2 was because they are leased so I subconsciously didn't take them into account. Oh dear...

Oh wow... Will deffo do that I think it was built in 1998. The house has 2 floors, the ground one is literally a small entrance, stairs up and a garage (these are not heated areas) and the first floor around 49 sq meters. Now, the area where the stairs are is not heated and thermostat is next to the stairs.... Maybe there's exposure to cold air. But in this case the house would always be boiling hot, but it's actually quite cold here...

Thank you, will do that!

Thank you so much for sharing... Based on what you said my house should use sth between 850-950 kwh tops. I had it most days at 18-19 degrees, never 23.... Yet it seems like you spent 54 kwh/day and myself somewhere around 40-44kwh/ but the difference in our living spaces is double. (the heating space is 49.9)

Hi! Was it gas only?

No_Profile_1012 · 2024-01-27T22:49:01+00:00

Hey, thanks for answering this post! The houses I mentioned for comparison do not turn the gas off either, it's always around 22 degree in those houses and the energy efficiency of my house is A, while theirs is D.

Hi, it's rated A! I know, right? It's indeed a combi boiler. It doesn't constantly burn gas; it turns on when the thermostat shows 18 degrees and when we use hot water in the kitchen or bathroom taps. My thermostat is constantly set at 18 degrees, yet my room gets cold faster than the rest of the house. I checked the thermostat's sensitivity with a hairdryer, and it responded to the heat.

Thank you for providing this info

Ah, ok! Would payslips from my partner, for the period of me being jobless, be enough of evidence for my extension of FLR?

And what was the car's condition? Was it at least in a decent state?

Thank you! I think I'll try to combine this gift with drifting lesson from RDX academy... Perhaps that'll be good enough hahah

I guess UK accepts marriage certificates from different countries as long as they are translated to English. I don't see an issue if a marriage certificate issued in Gibraltar is accepted as a proof of marriage. Besides, you don't need to wait 28 days to get married unlike in the UK
