Weather Compensation and heat up time

[Gary27]

I have a weather compensation condensing boiler and have tried to set the Curve as low as possible. I know I need to ensure the heat output exceeds the heat lost from the house but was wondering how long it should take to warm the house to the set temperature. It is currently 45-60 minutes, does that seem OK.

That's good.

You say you have the curve set as low as possible. Has the weather comp system gone through a complete year, so you can see how it copes in the coldest weather? If it hasn't you may find that the curve is set too low.

Yes I have had it for over a year, it always heats the house. Water Flow temperature adjusts between 45-60c.

Your best bet is to use the VRC 430 on a wall and run it as thermostat...heating curve depend on the house but around 2 is probably optimal

Sounds as if it's doing a good job!
