TIPS ON ENERGY
SAVING
Draughts
Try to ensure that draughts around
doors, windows, letterboxes and keyho-
les etc. are reduced by using a suitable
draught excluder. Warning - Do not block
or seal any air vents that are installed to
ensure the central heating boiler opera-
tes safely.
Room thermostats
Reducing the setting of the room ther-
mostat by 1 °C can reduce fuel con-
sumption by up to 10%.
New control systems
Upgrade your heating control system if
necessary with the latest equipment
available. The minimum level of control is
a programmer, interlocking room thermo-
stat and thermostatic radiator valves.
Radiators
More often than not radiators will be
sited underneath a window, so the warm
air from the radiator heats the colder
incoming air from the window. The per-
formance of the radiator will be affected
if the curtains are allowed to drape over
the radiator or shelves are fitted above it.
The positioning of furniture and tables in
front of the radiator should also be avoi-
ded.
It is advisable to manually adjust all
radiator thermostatic valves every 2-3
months to prevent them sticking. It is
also important that the plastic tops of all
valves are always in position and not
cracked or damaged to prevent acci-
dents. Care should be taken when vacu-
um cleaning carpets to avoid damage to
valves and pipework.
The heating system and the outputs of
the radiators have been carefully selec-
ted by your installer. The temperature
obtainable in any given room is depen-
dent on all radiators being operated at
the same time. If you decide to turn off
radiators in unused rooms, spare
bedrooms etc., you may experience
slightly lower room temperatures in
rooms adjacent to unheated rooms.
