Is it really cheaper for me to have central heating on all day than a gas fire?

[Dotty]

I'm hoping there's a decimal point in there somewhere.

With Fire on full for 2 minutes start 01710433 after 2 minutes 01710450.

central heating on full 30 degrees 01710550 after 2 minutes 01710644

I get 17 for the fire and 94 for central heating on full 30 degrees correct? m3

last 3 digits are red

No decimal point last 3 digits are red. If that helps you help me

Yesterdays full readings were 01706471 and 01709244 last 3 digits red and M3 and temperature was 21 degrees

And that was central heating on for 12 hours.

Righto, now dig out your bill, we need your tariff and calorific value.

I don't get bills it's online and I am on standard tariff with Scottish hydro. What's my calorific value?

Your cv is a measurement that we use to determine how much heat is generated per unit of gas.

It'll be a number somewhere between 38 and 42. I'll take it as being 41.04 as that's what we're using in Northern Ireland.

Even though you're online you should see your tariff per unit.

I am bloody hopeless at online billing changing to paper. But I found this. If it helps

The calorific value refers to the amount of energy that’s released when a certain amount of gas is completely combusted under specific conditions throughout the National Grid system.

It’s measured continually and changes a small amount every day, but a typical example of the calorific value is 39.2.
