Heating a house or apartment is no fun. How much gas do you use for the operation of the household?
Recently, gas heating has become more and more “in”. And no wonder. Unlike electricity, it is cheaper, safe, ecological (ie do not go dust microparticles, as if you attach to the boiler with coal). Moreover, the good news is that the price of gas, unlike in previous years, is declining, so it becomes more and more accessible even for those who are deeper in their pocket…
The author of the video, the owner of the house, will advise you on how to save on the heating with gas. More on the channel YouTube.com.

Prices differ
“Gas prices are different. Not only the region in which you live, but also your supplier affects them. The contract is also crucial – if you have it with a fixed price or not, ”says an expert, adding that the average price ranges from 10 – 20 crowns per m3 . Your account for annual operation of gas depends on how you use fuel. Do you only have it for heating? Or do you heat water or cook with it? Every other activity that uses gas resources for its drive only increases your consumption.
How much does it cost
According to experts, gas consumption for heating 1 m² is approximately 110 kWh gas per year. So if you live in a hundred -meter apartment, it does about 11,000 kWh just for heating. Of course, you have to include water heating, which is estimated at 1,430 kWh gas per person per year (depending on the number of household members). And cooking? Be sure to count about 200 kWh gas per year per head of your family clan.
So what are the costs?
You can get some estimate of gas consumption for your apartment simply when you add consumption for heating, water heating and cooking. The result will come out in KWH (ie in kilowatt hours), which needs to be converted to 1 m³. The aid may be the fact that the coefficient is 1: 10.55, ie
1 m³ = 10.55 kWh. Then you only need the number of your m³, to multiply the power per unit (ie m³) and you will be clear!
