    Ha Ha I think you lost me there! Is that if I leave the the immersion on all day?

    Yes left on continuously.

    The flat was build just over a year ago but the heater is newer hot to touch and the cupboard it is in does not feel warm or anything which I guess would mean it is well insulated?

    It is likely to have one of the well insulated types e.g. here These should not feel hot on the outside of the tank due to very good insulation e.g. 2kWh per day.

    What you listed yourself in your first post comes to more than 23 kWh per day. Why are you puzzled?

    Have you got any things that you use regularly like laptops, xbox 360s, mobile phone chargers?
    You might find things like 360 for example is a massive drain on your electricity... I can tell when DH has had a marathon session on his :)
