Martin Lewis has shared a “no-brainer” tip that could save you £100 on your energy bill.

The Money Saving Expert founder was speaking on his ITV The Martin Lewis Money Show on Tuesday night when he urged Brits to check the “flow temperature” of their boiler.

The flow temperature – the temperature your boiler will heat up water before sending to radiators – should be set at 60 degrees but many are programmed much higher than this, the cash-saving guru explained.

He said: “You normally want it to be around 60° but most peoples boilers are set higher - that’s really inefficient.

“You can turn this down, it won’t affect the heat in your house, it’ll still be the same temperature.

“It won’t affect your hot water temperature - it might take slightly longer to get up to the maximum temperature.

“But it can cut £100 a year off your bill and is well worth everyone doing.”

He added: “This is an absolute no-brainer and everyone with a combi boiler should be trying this.”
