can someone answer this gas question

Just wondering if when my gas boiler comes on in the morning at 7.30 for 45 mins if I put the washing machine on at the same time for a 40 minute cycle will I be using the same amount of gas consumption therefore saving at least 40 mins of gas usage if I had put it on some other time of the day. please email replies to email below

    Welcome to the forum

    No you will use more gas - assuming your washing machine uses hot water(most modern machines are now cold-fill; in which case it makes no difference)

    The more hot water you use - the more gas you use!

    P.S.
