This summer has seen extreme heats of up to 40C across the nation but now households are being told to put their heating on.
It comes as the cost of living crisis is expected to spiral even further in the autumn - and the energy bill price cap is now expected to rise to over £4,000. But switching your boiler on now could help to prevent you from forking out thousands in the colder months, reported Edinburgh Live.
Specialists at Boiler Central warn that leaving a boiler off for months at a time could leave you with hefty repair bills in months to come as shutting off your boiler may result in it seizing up and stopping hot water. So switching it on now, in summer, could help save money to prevent it breaking further down the line.
