Your natural gas boiler is key to an efficient heating system and should be looked after by having it serviced annually. Ensure your attic door is draft-free and if necessary fit some draft excluder. Fit draft excluders to external doors and your letter box. Decorate with carpets or rugs - they help to insulate floors.

Radiator
 
Use a portable space heater when only one room needs to be kept warm. Where radiators are placed under windows, deflect heat back into the room by placing a shelf or longer window ledge over it. Where radiators are on external walls fit reflective foil-backed insulation behind them to reflect heat into the room.
