An expert has revealed the exact date you should turn your heating off before your bill is set to rise again.
Energy bills have rocketed over the last year, meaning many families have been looking for ways to slash their costs.
But winter is the time when energy bills are highest, as freezing temperatures mean we turn the thermostat up more often to warm our homes.
If you’re wondering when exactly you should turn your heating off, an expert claims Sunday, March 26 is the date to mark in your diary.
PlumbNation has previously said the average temperature is a bit higher at this time of year - meaning you should hopefully feel warmer.
There are more hours of daylight as well, and the clocks go forward on this date.
Finally, it is just days before the Energy Price Guarantee is due to rise to £3,000 a year for the typical household on April 1.
It makes sense to try and lower your energy usage before this increase hits, if you can.
Jordan Chance, a heating expert from PlumbNation told The Sun: "Having the heating on only as and when you need it, is the best way to save energy.
"As Spring is just around the corner, and as the weather gradually begins to turn warmer, more and more people are keeping their heating on for shorter amounts of time.
"Although there is no single temperature at which you should turn your heating off, many aim for the time when clocks go forward."
Of course, this date is only a rough estimation - it all depends on how warm your home is and where you live.
Households are currently covered by the Energy Price Guarantee, which has “frozen” the typical annual bill at £2,500.
But this isn’t an absolute cap on what you could pay.
The Energy Price Guarantee only limits the amount that firms can charge customers per unit of gas and electricity.
This means if you use more energy, you’ll pay more - use less, and your bill will be less than this headline figure.
