Came back after a night out to find the house very hot indeed. Had a play with the thermostat (set to 18degC) and it clicked at 27degC. So whatever the system's doing it isn't reacting to inputs from the thermostat. I've turned the radiator water temp down at the boiler, which means the...

It used to be a student place but the decor got upgraded so is now full of 30/40something divorcees!! :lol: Now the settings have been changed so the heating doesn't anti-cycle so much, it is now apparent that some of the radiators are reaching the required temps and some aren't (this might...

Yep, it still S.53'd at 28kWh so had to wind it down some more! So yes, I guess it is a bit over specified, but only the heating engineer who put it in would be able to tell me why he did that - maybe as you say the restriction's the pump hence the differential temps problem. But I wouldn't know...

Yep, big old house (former coaching inn) with 9 rooms upstairs and 6 rooms downstairs, + quite a bit of circulation space. So yes it needs a big boiler. Landlady (who lives in her own house) has a duty to provide me with a room warmer than 10degrees C in return for my £400pcm but faced with...

Thanks, turning the part load setting down from its 38kWh max has stopped the code coming up so at least the house stays warm. The landlady's gonna have to get a heating engineer out to sort it properly though!

Hi, Came back to a cold house (digs) last night and the radiators were lukewarm. It's an old house and loses heat like it's going out of fashion so needs warm radiators. The CH temp on the front of the boiler is set to 75C and the radiators are probably reaching about 40C. Cracked a couple...
