Rayburn running costs.
Forget the conjecture - these are the real costs.
There is a Rayburn that runs
on almost every fuel, and one
to suit most sizes of home.
For Rayburn models that provide
hot water or hot water and
heating, you'll need to consult
one of our qualified heating engineer who
can calculate running costs based
on the size and type of
home.
If you're wondering how much it
will cost to run a cooker only
Rayburn (Cookmaster or XT), here's
a handy table that shows the
energy consumption and running costs
based on energy prices as of
October 2008. It costs surprisingly
little to run a Rayburn, and
these figures are based on
running the Rayburn for five
hours in the evening -
providing all the cooking you
need along with 5 hours of
warmth into the kitchen.
Five hours of operation in the
evening.
