Central Heating Query

Graeme · 27 Dec 2002

Even with the thermostat on full,my radiators never seem to be as hot as others I have touched in other peoples houses. Would it have anything to do with the thermostat on my hot water tank being turned down to 60 degrees (complying with washing machine manual) that I am not getting a full heat out the radiators?. They have been bleeded recently.

your hot water temp has got nothing to do with the temp of your radiators, is your boiler big enough to cope with the number of rads you have.

Thanks for your reply and for clearing that up for me. I would expect the boiler is sufficient as is a relatively new house so has not been long fitted

do you run your boiler on full or halfway

Graeme · 27 Dec 2002

Gawd!!! I never thought of that...I had a look at the boiler and it's set on 2 out of 6. I expect turning it up to 5 shall resolve the dilemma. Thanks alot for that, it's always the simpliest little things
