    We had ours installed in December 2015 and after submitting meter readings for two month's afterwards our annual bill was adjusted down by £180. That was off a dual fuel bill of around £1200.

    Ours is a semi though so a lot more surface area to lose heat.
    Ok not as much as I expected or how they advertise. As you say maybe my terraced house will save a fair bit more

    What is your current heating bill ?
    A terrace only really has two walls to lose heat through (unless you are on the end) and your neighbours will be warming up the other two walls.

    Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.

    I would have thought that we would save more to be honest as we have more external walls.

    I worked out that without the grant we got and the need to have the render fixed already it didn't make economic sense to have the work done.
