Advice on running central heating

[djburz]

Hi all

I've just moved into an old victorian property complete with high ceilings, big rooms etc.,

I have a Worcester 35CDI boiler and some of the radiators in some of the rooms, are quite small due to bay windows etc.,

What is the general consensus of advice to keep the house warm and also the most economical way....is it to use the timer on the boiler and set the radiator temperature control on the boiler to high, or is it best to keep the boiler running and set the radiator temperature control on the boiler to a lower setting? The radiators themselves, are currently set to full whack on their temperature settings.

Please bear in mind, that my wife and I work Monday to Friday!

Thanks in advance!

if the CDI can take weather compensation you should fit that for maximum

Sorry for my ignorance, but what's a weather compensation?

a way of controlling a boiler it varies the flow temperature in relation to the outside temperature, so if its very cold the radiators are hotter than if it were mild
