Energy cost-efficiency should be easy

In the UK most homes have central heating. With a couple of minor modifications to the central heating controls the system can be made much more energy efficient. First Of All, a time switch or central heating programmer allows you to set central heating and hot water to come on only at times when necessary. Your bills will be greatly reduced as you will only be using energy when it is actually required.

Room temperature thermostats can also be installed to switch off the central heating when a particular temperature is achieved. gas usage is limited to that required to maintain in the room temperature at the set level. TRV valves can be added to each radiator to finely control individual room temperatures.

One of the primary causes of high fuel costs and a major source of gas inefficiency comes from aging boilers. After fifteen years your boiler has seen its better days. Considerably less energy is used by modern gas boilers as they are more efficient. savings of up to forty % can be achieved by fitting a condensing boiler. The gas consumption profile of the gas boiler is much smaller as warmth is drawn from the exhaust gases to heat cold water. You may be qualified for a award to fit a condensing central heating boiler and it is worth speaking to a heating adviser to determine this.
