Cold patches on radiators?
Bleeding your radiators is a quick way to get the most out of your heating.
Turn your heating off, turn the valve using a radiator key to release the air, as soon as water starts coming out, shut it off! Remember to check your boiler pressure afterwards

Keep your home at a min of 18c but you can turn down the radiators in rooms you don't use. Leave them on low to avoid damp but you may find that closed off rooms are being overheated.
Use the Thermostatic Radiator Valve, the dial located on the radiator itself, to turn it down

Estimated bills means that your energy supplier doesn't know how much energy you've used- they're guessing. So you might be paying more each month than you need to or you might pay for less energy than you actually use which will result in a large bill later on!
