I can easily get through that in 6 weeks here if the weather is ultra cold. Jesus, do you live in Siberia and have a prediliction for sauna-like temperatures? 1000 litres of oil lasts us nearly a year. With open fires, unless you've got rads from the fire, they can actually make other rooms colder if there are draughts through the windows. So, a lot depends on the house that they're in, the fireplace and chimney, and how the air supply is provided as to how much fuel is needed. In very old buildings with a fire only downstairs you make the downstairs room warmer and everywhere else colder! |
