Gas usage cost
There are some handy meters available in the shops for measuring electricity usage which are useful for working out the cost of running various appliances.
Is there an easy way of working out the cost of gas consumption?
For example I have a large Vaillant combi-boiler about 19 years old which delivers a good flow of hot water to my shower. I'd love to know how much a shower is costing me per minute, but I've no idea how to find out. I guess the shower is probably the same as leaving the hot tap running full-on, but I can't find any details of the rating of the boiler.
