8.0 TIPS FOR ECONOMIC USE OF

THE SYSTEM

8.1 Central/ Underfloor heating
Check that the Programmable Room
Thermostat is programmed to take
advantage of any day time "Off-Peak"
electricity periods (see Table below).
Set the temperature required to a
comfortable level, over–heating and
consequent over compensation to cool the
room temperature wastes power.
Review your central heating times – don't
programme a heating period when the
property is unoccupied. The Programmable
Room Thermostat has various over-ride
functions that can be useful if the normal
programmed periods are not required.
Lower the boiler flow temperature (see
Electromax Controls section) to give
adequate heating to maintain comfort
levels.

8.1.2. Central heating only
If not already provided fit Thermostatic
Radiator Valves (TRV's) to radiators in
rooms other than where the Programmable
Room Thermostat is fitted. Set an
appropriate temperature for the room use,
for example bedrooms should have a lower
temperature than living areas.
8.2 Hot water
Avoid supplying hot water to appliances
such as washing machines or dishwashers.
It is more economical to install "cold fill"
appliances and have them heat the water
used to its optimum temperature within the
appliance. Even lower running costs can
be achieved if these can be programmed to
run on "Off-Peak" times.
Avoid excessive use of the Boost element
as this will generally not be using "Off-Peak"
electricity. Be aware of when the day time
"Off-Peak" periods are as the water heater
will automatically reheat during those times
if the thermostat is calling for heat. Check
your electricity supply bill for details of your
tariff and then refer to the Table below. A
small adjustment to your lifestyle patterns
can have a big influence on your system
running costs.
