Tips on saving energy

Use the setting options offered by the

can save up to 6 % on your heating
bills for every degree you reduce your
room temperature.
Never set your room temperature
higher than 20 °C (see page 19).
■ Never set the DHW temperature too
high (see page 26).
■ Only activate the DHW circulation
pump when DHW is drawn off. Set the
time program for this (see page 29).
■ Select the operating program that
meets your current requirements:

Further recommendations:
■ Correct ventilation/airing.
Briefly open windows fully and at the
same time close the thermostatic
valves.
■ Close roller shutters (if installed) at
dusk.
■ Set thermostatic valves correctly.
■ Never cover radiators or thermostatic
valves.
■ Controlled DHW consumption: A
shower generally uses less energy
than a full bath.
