Our house has a modulating combi boiler feeding multiple rads. Each rad has a TRV except for the bathroom one and there's no ABV or roomstat. The boiler and radiators seem to have been installed about 2004, before we moved in, and do the job.
My question is, what triggers my boiler to fire up the second time?
I'm guessing when the timer goes on, the boiler senses the flow temperature as low so there is a demand for heat, boiler fires up, and as the rooms come to temperature, the temperature of the return increases. When that delta hits some minimum value, heat isn't needed and the boiler and pump cut out.
So what triggers the boiler to come back on and go round the cycle again?
