also on £10-12 a day for gas the last week or so - heat set to 17 between 7am (‘pre-heats’ earlier) and 7pm (I work from home and wife, who runs very cold, looks after the toddler full time).
the nest says the boiler was on 7h yesterday for what it’s worth.
1906 3-bed mid-terrace up north, though have insulated under floors and used insulated plasterboard on external walls where we could.
the house was a student let before we bought it and has had ventilation grates above floor level in the bay upstairs and downstairs retrofitted, which is noticably drafty, so will likely sort those out as we have a fancy new dryer for clothes and a dehumidifier.
also planning to insulate externally if/when funds allow, but this winter is definitely tough and looking more and more overdrafty as well as regular drafty.
