11.1 Energy Saving

Tips on saving energy:

Do not cover radiators. Do not hang curtains in front of

radiators.

Install reflective panels behind the radiators to prevent heat

losses.

Insulate the pipes in rooms that are not heated (cellars and

lofts).

Install loft insulation & double glazing.

Use draught excluders where necessary.

Upgrade any older boiler external controls.

Turn down room thermostats by 1°

Turn off radiators in rooms not in use.

Do not run hot (or cold) water pointlessly.

Fit a water-saving shower head to save up to 40 % energy.

Take showers rather than baths. A bath consumes twice as

much water and energy.

11.2 Room Thermostats and Settings

Various models of room thermostat are available. The

thermostat type and setting affect the total energy consumption.

A few tips:

Fully opening or closing thermostatic radiator valves results

in unwanted temperature fluctuations. Turn the thermostat knob

or valve higher or lower in small steps.

Lower the thermostat to approximately 20°C. This reduces

heating costs and energy consumption.

When rooms are to be aired lower the thermostat well in

advance.

When setting thermostats or programmers take account of

days when nobody will be in and holidays.
