Set to 22C permanently, as all the house is in use during the day/night.

Blimey I'd have to get nekkid round your gaff. Not a pretty sight...

I wonder how many people forget to bleed their rads and don't realise that's why they're not getting as hot as they should.

The gas board never gave us a key to bleed the heaters as they said it was not necessary.

Re: How do you have your central heating set?

We've had new central heating + radiators fitted for a couple of years now, one or two of them needed bleeding about 3 or 4 times since.

I bought my own brass bleeding keys from Home Bargains for a few quid.

Re: How do you have your central heating set?

Some good interesting advice in this thread.


I personally wish I had a log fire that heated up the house, but in a new build semi, its not happening.
