Electricity isn't just expensive

[Oh_hunnihunni]

I used the new heat pump on three occasions this past winter, in addition to my free hours of power, and on each occasion I could see the electricity use rise sharply. It may be the most efficient form of heating, but diving under the quilt with a hot water bottle and a cat is way cheaper.

I have now turned the pump off at the outside connection, so will be interested to see if that latent use disappears from my monthly usage. Watching that use on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis is really helpful for me in planning my budget...
