11 Tips on energy saving
Heating economically
The appliance provides a high level of comfort whilst keeping fuel
consumption and the environment effects as low as possible.
The appliance is controlled in such a way that it delivers heat at the
correct rate and only if there is a clear demand from the system.
Central heating systems with thermostatic radiator valves
With modern heating systems set around a 20 °C heat loss, the optimum
setting for a condensing boiler will be approximately 65 °C for the central
heating temperature. This is to ensure a return temperature of less than
52 °C.
The system must be balanced correctly and the radiators may need
upgrading. This allows the boiler to condense as much as possible for the
central heating system.
The temperature of each room can be set individually (except primary
room with the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radiator valves.
Room thermostats
Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1 °C can reduce fuel
consumption by up to 10%.
New control systems
Upgrade your heating control system if necessary with the latest
equipment available.
Roof insulation
Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace
any old insulation with new insulation, preferably of around 200mm
thickness or more.
Window frames
Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a
great deal of heat. Consideration should be given to replacement with
PVCu or wooden framed double glazed units.
Radiators
If a radiator is sited underneath a window, its performance will be
affected if the curtains are allowed to drape over the radiator. Shelves
fitted above or in front of the radiator should also be avoided.
It is advisable to manually adjust all thermostatic radiator valves every
2‒3 months to prevent them sticking. Ensure radiator valves are
correctly set and not damaged.
Draughts
Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letter boxes and
keyholes etc. are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder.
WARNING
Air vents!
Do not block or seal any air vents that are installed to ensure that the
appliance operates safely.
Curtains
Lined curtains, or heavier full length curtains can provide excellent
insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over
radiators.
