RE: Power Consumption

[Keith Doxey <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

Have you got different tarrifs ?

Economy 7 is a must. I changed to Eco7 several years ago and spent
£25 on
timeswitches for Washing Machine and tumble drier. They had paid for
themselves in 8 weeks with the savings made.

That seems fair. My bill has risen from £65 per quarter in my old

£117 and then £148 in the new house! I don't think I am running
anything
excessive since moving although it is a bigger house and now has all the
lights on LD11s.
