Such an arrangement will provide for a potentially more efficient control of the environment and will also avoid the continuous running of the circulation pump during programmed heating ‘On’ periods. thus saving electrical energy It is recommended strongly therefore that, when thermostatic radiator valves are used, that space heating temperature control over living/dining area or hallway having a heating requirement of at least 2 kW (7000 Btu/h) be achieved using a room thermostat whilst other rooms are individually controlled by thermostatic radiator valves. - Page 16 2. Safety Valve A spring loaded safety valve complying with the relevant requirements of BS.759 must be fitted in the flow pipe as close to the boiler as possible and with no intervening valve restriction. The valve should have the followihg features - a.
