Is the thermostat set at a suitable temp so that consumption is

Good idea; I've already adjusted it up quite a lot but I might as well
max it out as a trial, I'll check it's not scalding.


I was more concerned that you may have it too high and be wasting energy.
The hotter it is = the greater the losses, but the less you use.


It is usual to leave it set at 60 centigrade. Too much higher can
be dangerous to an unsuspecting user.
