What heating really costs you.
Take a typical household in Tangermünde that heats with natural gas. The numbers hurt, even when you only see part of them on the bill.
- Visible on the bill approx. € 245 / monthof which approx. 15 % is heat lost through the chimney
- What you tend to overlook (maintenance, depreciation, chimney sweep) approx. € 60 / month
≈ € 420 / year
That's around € 420 in savings. Every single year.
