Temperatures have plunged over the last few weeks and are set to get even lower in the coming days - but avoid one common heating hack as it actually costs more money

We have all heard it - leaving your boiler on all day is cheaper than turning it on or off.

It is not more efficient to have your boiler on constantly at a low temperature, even though it may seem logical that a small amount of heat throughout the day will keep your house warm and keep bills down as you’re technically using less energy across the day. Instead of leaving the heating on all day, they advise to be clever with the timing: "The best solution in place of leaving your boiler on all day is to time your heating to come on earlier, especially in the morning, to then ensure your house is warm once you’re up."
