Cheaper than gas

Unfortunately the attic's already fully insulated.

Meady why don't you make it dead simple for us all, just read the meter and read it again in one week same time, we are not interested in what you are paying its a smokescreen we should only be interested in what gas is going through the boiler, BTW do you cook with gas.

To the letter of the law you can take the cover off if it's a decorative cover, not if it's a combustion cover

Cover on boiler is a1 piece wrap around, so would that class as a combustion cover ?.

Is the house Generally Warmer, the same or colder than with the old boiler?
Are you using similar amounts of hot water as before?

Has the rate been changed on the meter to cover any previous debt?

Hi: Heat level seems about the same as before, No the rate hasn't been changed no arrears.
Not using any extra hot water, if anything less.

just going back to Andy before we all discuses out gas and lecky charges.

Turn your boiler stat down, ok it will mean cooler rads but if your home is well insulated and rads / boiler are all sized right, that should help.

Boiler stat is set on the e setting at the moment, that's what the installer reckoned was the most economical setting to run it at.
