Default Pilot light gas usage

I've worked out that the pilot light on my old Vaillant combi boiler
uses the equivalent of 60UKP of gas per year, does this sound right?


no

This means a new boiler would repay in 10 years on the cost of pilot
light gas alone.


it neglects the shorter lifetime, lower reilability, and higher repair
costs of a newer boiler.
