LabelDo you have any form of central heating (including electric storage heaters)?
Question text Due to the relatively high cost of fuels in NI there is considerable interest in the use people make of fuel and its cost to them. I would like to ask you some questions about your heating and use of fuel. Even if you don't actually use it, do you have any form of central heating (including electric storage heaters)?
