Hello,
I am raising this enquiry on behalf of my sister who seems to be having problems regulating and maintaining a decent temperature throughout her house.
The Boiler is a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 28i Junior, which is controled via a wireless Drayton Digistat +3RF thermostat.
Although the temperature is set at different levels throughout the day, they are roughly between 18 to 21 Degees C.
According to her Boiler manual the Temperature control, if used with TRV radiator valves, has to be set at level 6, which is 80 Degees C.
Although the Boiler and radiator valves etc and all controls are approx 1 year old, her Gas Bills are rather high compared with her previous, much older boiler.
The TRV valves are set to a comfortable level in each room, and the thermostat is situated in the passage, which is cooler than the downstairs rooms.
Can you please advise as to whether the Boiler Temp. control should be set at 6 (80 Degrees) when TRV's are fitted to radiators. If so, how many radiators throughout the house should have TRV's fitted.
I did think that if a by-pass system was fitted into the Central Heating system, then hot water would still be pumped around even if the trv's had closed.
Thank you,
