Hi Mal

No it=92s a single barn conversion, we=92ve actually lived on site and been
using electric for three years. I have got the serial number of the
meter the electric board are charging for and I=92ll check that in the
morning.

It=92s about 2600sq ft so not really a cathedral, nice idea though:-)

I understood that running a ground source heat pump cost around the same

as heating a house by gas - i.e. around a third of the cost of
"normal"=20
electric heating.

=A31000 sounds mad unless you're living in a converted cathedral - is
the=20
conversion a single unit, or is there a chance that you could be getting

billed for your neighbours too?
