How to Save Energy
.... by heating the right way
Apart from taking advantage of the benefits of a modern
heating system, there is a lot you can do yourself to
achieve additional fuel savings.
For instance:
- Don’t overheat:
Aim at a room temperature of 68º F (20º C).
Every 2º F (1º C) less in room temperature will reduce
your heating bills by up to 6%.
- Close window shutters (if installed) at dusk.
- Operate thermostatic valves 2 correctly.
- Don’t obstruct radiators 3 and thermostatic valves 2.
- Make use of individual adjustment options of the
control unit 4 (supplied by others);
e.g. “normal room temperature” alternating with
“reduced room temperature”.
- Set the domestic hot water temperature of the DHW
tank 5 on the control unit of the tank or on external
controller.
- Control your consumption of hot water:
A shower generally consumes less energy than a bath.
... with regular maintenance
Regular maintenance check-ups of your heating system
6 by a licensed professional heating contractor will
ensure energy savings and environmentally friendly
operation.
.... with effective insulation
If you wish to make use of additional energy-saving
measures, check the thermal insulation:
- of heating and domestic hot water pipes.
- of external walls and the roof.
- between heated and unheated rooms.
- of the windows.
