just wondering how hot I need to set the temp stat on my boiler to enable it to heat my cylinder to 65c?
All the info online just says to set the boiler to a hotter temp than the cylinder temp but not how much hotter it should be.
It is a firebird conventional oil boiler with a 3 pipe system, 2 heating zones, Each with its own own stats and all bar one of the rads have trvs.
I think I read somewhere (in that past) that with older (non condensing) boilers running them near max is the best option and that 80c would be needed to get the cylinder up to 65Cs. The other reason I think this is that it ought to reduce cycling and also gives Quicker room heat up times from cold in the morning.
Am I on the right or wrong track??
