We are hoping to move house and have found one that we are planning to offer on but it has an almost new Rayburn Heatranger oven which also supplies heat to radiators plus hot water. There is no other source of heating/hot water as a back up although there is another cooker.
I am a bit worried about how much it will cost to run as the Rayburn website suggests around 30kg of coal a day which at around £300 a tonne delivered for suitable smokeless fuel is err £300 month! The current owner is a builder so gets all his wood for free so couldn't advise.
More likely we would use wood due to sustainability but then I guess you have to top it up more and you don't get the same heat output.
Anyone any experience of these Rayburns and how much they cost to run? I guess we could go foraging for wood but realistically won't have the time to find enough to meet all our fuel requirements. Any help would be much appreciated.
