So last couple of months we've averaged 11kWh of Gas per day and 10kWh of electricity per day. Somewhat disappointed that this is that high given that our only gas usage would be for our system boiler to heat our 300L hot water tank to about 56C and every single lightbulb in the house is a low energy LED (bar one actually, in the kids bathroom - which is a halogen). I haven't insulated the tank yet, so will do that this month, but I've at least insulated the pipes. Electricity seems high, though I do work from home and we do a lot of laundry as we have two young kids and we watch a lot of TV. How's your energy usage at the moment? Particularly interested to hear from those who also have a gas heated hot water tank. I've now turned the thermostat on the tank down to about 53C to see what difference this makes. It's difficult to know the exact temp it's set to as the analogue dial shows 45C and 65C and then two equally spaced increments in between which should be equivalent to 51.67 and 58.33.
