gas central heating vv electric central heating
2 Answers
I'm moving house soon (hopefully) into a 2 bed that has electric central heating. Is it more expensive to run than gas? Also is there such a thing as an electric combi-boiler so that I can get rid of the water tank in the attic & the hot water tank in the airing cupboard?

Our friends have electric central heating and their bills are astronomical, I am talking hundreds of pounds every quarter. If the house has a gas supply I would highly recommend you change it to gas. I know the initial cost will be expensive, but I am sure you would benefit from it very quickly moneywise. You could have a combi gas boiler instead and that would get rid of the tanks for you. Speak to plumber who could give you advice and a quote.
