Energy Efficiency and the Environment
Home energy use is responsible for more than ¼ of the total UK carbon emissions
which contribute to climate change. Heating and hot water systems based on
boilers account for
controls can help to maximize energy efficiency while maintaining your comfort.
Your Timer should be used in conjunction with appropriate temperature controls. In
order to save energy the following general points should be observed:
1. Ensure your system contains a room thermostat (where appropriate), and that
both are set to appropriate temperature levels: typically 20°C for the room
temperature and between 50 - 60°C for the hot water temperature.
2. Programme your heating (and hot water) to be off when you are not in the
house. If you are concerned about possible frost damage to any exposed pipe
work, it is advisable to fit a frost protection system – your installer can advise
you about this.
3. Think about how you use your domestic hot water – if you have a storage
system, it is not necessary to have this switched on all the time, even when you
are in the house.
4. Consider the heat up times required for your central heating. Every home
responds differently when the heating is switched on. Adjust the start time so
that you are not cold when you get up in the morning. A shorter heat up time is
required for other heating periods.
5. In the evening, when the house is up to temperature, it is often possible to
switch off the heating up to an hour before you go to bed, without any noticeable
reduction in comfort.
