8.1 Energy-saving advice
`
Keep the room in which the boiler is installed well ventilated.
`
Do not obstruct aeration grates (even partially). They help to
reduce humidity in the home. The more humid a home, the
more heating it consumes.
`
Do not cover the radiators. Do not hang curtains in front of the
radiators.
`
Install reflector panels behind the radiators.
`
Insulate pipes to prevent thermal losses and condensation.
`
Turn heating off when airing a room (5 minutes a day is
sufficient)
Avoid deregulating the thermostat. Place the start/stop switch
on Off.
`
Close the radiators in rooms not in use.
`
Do not run hot (or cold) water pointlessly.
`
Fit a water-saving shower head to save up to 40 energy.
`
Take showers rather than baths.A bath consumes twice as
much water and energy.
`
Do not shut down heating completely if you are absent.
Lower the thermostat by 3-4°C.
`
Use the sun's heat as much as possible.
8.2 Room thermostat and settings
The type of thermostat and its setting have a considerable influence
on energy consumption.
A few tips:
`
A modulable thermostat, possibly in combination with
thermostatic valve radiators, saves energy and offers
considerable comfort. This combination allows you to set the
temperature on each flow.
In the room in which the room thermostat is installed, do not fit
thermostatic valve radiators.
`
Completely closing and opening thermostatic valve radiators
causes undesirable temperature fluctuations.
Open and close thermostatic valves in small steps.
`
Lower the room thermostat when you air the rooms.
`
When setting an hourly programmable thermostat, bear days
when you are absent and holidays in mind.
