Keeping your boiler efficient is one of the best ways to save on energy bills and reduce your environmental footprint. Here are answers to some common questions about boiler efficiency and tips on saving energy.
How can I improve my boiler's efficiency?
Regular maintenance is key to keeping your boiler running at peak efficiency. Simple tasks like bleeding radiators, checking the boiler’s pressure, and scheduling annual servicing can make a big difference.
What boiler settings save the most energy?
Lowering the flow temperature on your boiler to around 60°C can improve efficiency and cut energy bills. Avoid using high-temperature settings unless absolutely necessary.
Is it true that lowering the boiler’s flow temperature can save on energy bills?
Yes, studies have shown that reducing the flow temperature can save up to 9% on energy bills. It keeps the boiler condensing more effectively, which maximizes energy usage.
How often should I get my boiler serviced to maintain efficiency?
Annual servicing is ideal for most boilers, as it catches any issues before they impact efficiency and helps the boiler operate smoothly. This is especially important before winter when your boiler works hardest.
