Re: When does your Heating usually go on?

Yes. The electrician said do you want it set to how it is now after he removed the old kit. I said no thinking it'll get too hot but that's not the case. I've since gone up one to 22c on the thermostat.

My boiler is behaving differently with this new kit. It's running a lot more efficiently and is condensing more. My previous kit would fire up the boiler and let it reach max temperature levels set at the boiler. This new kit is only reaching temperatures in the 40's which what the installer of the boiler 10 years ago told me, 'let the boiler run on constant in the 40's' for low bills and comfortable temperatures. The thermostat obviously dictates the off and on temperatures. Impressive thus far.

The heating was busier last night, coolest night since before summer.

BREAKING NEWS: My heating went on today. Over ruled it and switched it off, it was being over dramatic.

The room thermostat is one in a chain of switches that need to be "closed" for the system to burn gas.

With the Boiler Controller timer set to "on", by being set to "constant" or "timed On":

Gas pressure OK
Water pressure OK
Flame lit and stable
Air pump OK

It will run the circulation pump without burning gas if the water is hot enough and the thermostat is closed.
