TIPS ON ENERGY

SAVING

Heating economically

The boiler is designed to provide a high

level of comfort while keeping gas con-

sumption and the resulting environmen-

tal effect as low as possible. The gas

supply to the burner is controlled accor-

ding to the level of demand for heat.

The boiler continues to operate with a

low flame if the demand for heat redu-

ces. The technical term for this process

is modulating control. Modulating con-

trol reduces temperature fluctuations

and provides even distribution of heat

throughout the home. This means that

the boiler may stay on for relatively long

periods but will use less gas than an

appliance that continually switches on

and off.

TIPS ON ENERGY SAVING

Central heating systems with room

thermostats/thermostatic radiator

valves

The central heating control on the boiler

should be set to the maximum rated tem-

perature of the central heating system.

The temperature of each room can be

set individually (except primary room with

the room thermostat) using the thermo-

static radiator valves.

Roof insulation

Around 30% of the heat loss from a pro-

perty is through the roof. Replace any

old insulation with new insulation, prefe-

rably of around 200 mm 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 woo-

den framed double glazed units.

Curtains

Lined curtains, or heavier full length cur-

tains can provide excellent insulation.

However, always ensure that the curtains

do not drape over radiators.
