If your boiler is more than 10 years old plan to replace it. Modern gas boilers are significantly more energy efficient. Save up to 20% off your heating bill by insulating your attic or increasing the depth of your existing insulation.+ Take maximum control of your heating by fitting central heating zone valves which allow you control the heat in different areas of your home. Have a programmable timer control fitted to your heating system.

Fit thermostatic valves on all your radiators. Make sure your radiators have sufficient heat output for the size of room they are heating. If you have single glaze windows, upgrade them to quality double-glazing to significantly improve heat retention in your home. External wall insulation can be done in many ways and can greatly enhance heat retention throughout your home.
