With winter in full swing, many households keep their heating on longer than necessary, often without realising the impact on their energy bills. Fischer Future Heat, a leading innovator in energy-efficient heating solutions, reveals the hidden costs of leaving your heating on and offers essential tips to prepare for spring that could save you hundreds of pounds.
The Cost of Unnecessary Heating
Leaving your heating on when it's not needed doesn’t just burn energy – it burns through your wallet. Studies show that an average UK household could waste up to £200 annually by running heating during times of inactivity or leaving it on overnight. Additionally, constant heating can strain your system, reducing its efficiency over time.
As temperatures drop, it’s tempting to leave the heating running round the clock, but this habit could lead to unnecessarily high energy bills and environmental impact
