The 55C rule for condensing is not the boiler temperature it is the return temperature from the radiators. As radiators should have a 13c to 20c temperature drop across them a boiler set to say 65c will still condense as the water entering the boiler should be around 45c to 50c.

My home has a hot water storage tank and I have been running the boiler stat at 65c. A year on and the gas usage like for like is a third of what it was when we first moved in with the boiler set at max 85c. Saving £500+ a year now!! We have also had the noisy old pump replaced with a new smart variable speed pump. With current energy prices having your heating controls set optimally for efficiency and comfort can save you £100 or £1000s

Thank you for the info i turned my flow down to 49 from 60 and it saves around £1 a day on my smart meter as well as feels mote comfortable ad temps not overshooting the target temp . All my rads are oversized ready for heatpump if i wanted but i dont yet but possibly in the future. I will say though if you lower the flow temperature on the boiler the load balancing on the radiators needs to be spot on as any slight imbalance the lower flow temps seams to ha e a bigger impact so anyone who dose this possibility need to go round and fine tune there system over next few weeks to make sure all rads are working optimum with the new set up . I suppose the lower temps show more on as slight load imbalances will show more

The bar isn’t as important for efficiency but a recommended range of between 1 and 1.5 when cold is good but not the end of the world if it goes slightly higher. For hot water it depends if you have a hot water tank or not. If you don’t then 50 degrees is a good temperature to aim for. Hope this helps 😊

Its the return temperature that matters, right? Above 55 does not condense but the lower the return temp the more efficiency. I tried setting the outlet to 45 but unfortunately the system struggles. With bigger rads this would work fine but its an expensive solution. I wish I had a system that modulates the boiler temperature according to outside temperatures

I think it's flow temperature that people are referring to here. And there shouldn't be a need to make such smaller adjustments normally - the boiler would just run longer when the outside temperature is lower, in order to reach the desired warmth (set by your thermostat). For instance set the boiler's flow temperature to 50 degrees C and forget it - if there is insufficient insulation in the property or the radiators are small etc then you can set flow to 55 and that should be it.

Thank you, Jamie. That was very interesting. I live in a two bedroom flat, with 5 radiators. I have a Glow Worm Betacom2 24 combi-condensing boiler. I also have the Tado Mulit-room Control, with Tado SRVs on each radiator. I have also balanced the radiators. My Question is: given that I need to keep the return temperature below 55C, what temperature should I set the boiler flow temperature to, in order to get the Tado system to operate efficiently, while also keeping the boiler operating in Condensing mode? The video on the British Gas website, advises to set the boiler temperature to the Maximum - even with a combi-boiler - which seems to contradict, that which you and other have said.

Well obviously you will be fine to set it at 55 for starters. If all your rads are balanced properly I would say that the heat loss from the rads would be 10c minimum, so setting the output at 65 should be fine. But if you are warm, the lower the better

It should be set at the minimum temperature needed to sufficiently heat up your property. The lower the better, if you'd like efficient heating in condensing combi boilers. The better your property is insulated, the lower your boiler's temperature can be. For example, if your flow temperature is set to 40 degrees C and you feel warm enough (i.e. your room or property doesn't lose heat faster than the radiators warm it up), then that's ideal.

This is all well and good if you have combi system, however like myself with a conventional system you may as well just leave the boiler near the max temperature because it will never condense in hot water mode which is used 100% of the time, even with the balancing valve on the coil throttled right down the return temperature will still very quickly exceed 55 degrees, so i don't see much point chasing slightly extra efficiency I'd much rather have faster hot water and heating times!

Hi NRG, there are controls available that allow the system to have 2 different temperature for heating and hot water. Heating will be set for condensing and hot water will be max for rapid re heat. It then only allows either heating or hot water to be used at separate times. But other than that your point is valid 😊

By using a lower flow and a higher anti cycle time (say 30 minutes) the usage on mine in -3 C conditions, flow 55C, anti cycle 30 minutes, got it up to 18C target temp. My question is, what is the usual ratio, low flow high anti cycle or higher flow (60 ish) and a lower anti cycle time?

Hey! I have same boiler, so yes you can! There is a school of thought that you lower the flow temperature of the heating system but leave it running longer... This is better for the system apparently because its not cycling on and off and also can save gas because its not having to do regular blasts of heat. Or something 😆 We're not long into a new house with a different system, and yesterday I just put the system on manual all day (and night) at 20° and the house was evenly heated and used the same amount of gas as I have evert other day when I've had it on a timer (4 hrs morning, 5 hrs evening). I had to turn the heat down in the two rooms aye with the controller thermostat so that it took longer to heat up which allowed the other rooms to heat nicely and let the TRV on the radiator control the room. Have a look at Heat Geeks channel, some good info there too

1) Does a modulating boiler only modulate down the burner, or does it also modulate the rad pump flow rate? 2) is the modulation power (kw) set by the opentherm stat or is the flow temp set by an opentherm stat and then the boiler chooses the appropriate kW? 3) if I use a weather compensating control like a google nest, does that automatically set the boiler output or does it set the flow temperature?
@richardc1983
@richardc1983 2 жыл бұрын
1. On some boilers depending on the version of opentherm they are working to, the opentherm can tell the boiler to modulate the pump at burner on/burner off. Our ideal Vogue runs the pump at high when the burner goes off and then modulates the pump lower when the burner is on. 2. The opentherm controller will tell the boiler what flow temperature it wants, the boiler then modulates via it’s internal safety circuits the burners to achieve that flow temp. 3. Weather compensation is different in that it utilises the outside air temperature and you set a linear heat curve e.g at 0c outside your flow temp would be 60c but at 15c outside your flow temp would be 25c. The thermostat will just tell the boiler what it wants and the boiler will adjust it’s output… I’ve tried both and I prefer opentherm as it’s based on the actual internal conditions the greater the diff between set point and actual temp the harder the boiler works.

Flow is the temperature you set at the boiler, the return temperature (some boilers show) is when the water has been round all the open (on) radiators and returned back to your boiler (obviously it's at a lower temperature as heat has been given off to the room(s). Condensing boilers actually condense at 54C but the lower return temperature the more efficient the boiler is. Bear in mind that in the really cold weather, at too low a flow temperature, it may not be hot enough to satisfy the target (room) temperature. As a (very) general guide, anything below -1 outside would benefit from a flow of around 60-70C, and generally Spring/Autumn temperatures the flow can be anything from around 50 -60C.

@@anonanonanonanonanonagain Most boilers show the flow (radiator) temperature and you can sometimes press a button to see the return temperature. There are 2 icons for setting the flow, a radiator and a tap icon. The radiator icon is the flow temperature for the radiators, this time of year 60C is a good general temperature for that (if it's a condensing boiler), if it's not then I think the general rule is to set this to max (80C etc). The tap icon is for altering the temperature of the water that comes out of your taps. Obviously you don't want it scalding hot and by adding cold water to get a good (say bath) temperature is countertuitive, therefore a lower temperature is ideal. We have our radiator flow about 56C (this is all dependant on outside temp and how well insulated your house is), and our tap temperature at 48C. This allows us to fill a sink or have a shower without adding too much cold water.

So far 45C is fantastic with the outside temp between 2 to 6C and the thermostat set to 17C. My house glows with warmth, and it doesn't cycle a great deal. I have mine switch on at 2200 to 2400 and 0700 - 0900 (when am in) When I get home (2230)I turn on a fan heater and IR panel for my TV room, once it gets upto 18C (3 minutes) I turn them off and let the radiators take over. Seems comfy doing this. Hot water is set to 80ish C. Every now and again I will do a high temperature cycle. I don't want bugs in the water. They love it at these temps.

@@julianhowarth1075 if you don’t have a hot water tank then no need to worry about legionella, the boiler overrides all this. I have my hot water set to 50 degrees, it might not condense but this is expected in hot water. Just be mor le mindful about not wasting the hot water that’s produced. The required flow temperature varies according to the outside temperature. The cold it is, the hotter your flow temp would need to be. If it’s too low then you’ll waste energy by not heating the room quick enough. Too high and it won’t condense, so there is some wastage there. It also depends on the design of the heating system and your radiator sizes in relation to your rooms- lots to consider. So with all that in mind, there is no perfect temperature, but if I installed a boiler I would typically set it to between 55 and 65 and see how it goes. In the depths of winter 55 might be too low but I would just see how my house feels and how it reacts to the heat. Sounds like you’re on the right track. Hope this helps

The lower the temperature the boiler runs at the more condensing it does and the more latent heat from the gas combustion gets used. You are correct with a combi since you are heating the water through the boiler on the way to the hot tap. No point in running up to 55 and having to mix it with cold at the tap.

@@georgejetson4378 I don't think he'll believe in things that have imperical evidence to the contrary. The CO2 debate is quite tenuous when you apply the scientific method, unfortunately though its the new religion and people get upset when their new god is questioned...hence your banal remarks. I'd suggest rather than jumping to the defence of the extraction of wealth from the poor racket, you actually go off and apply the scientific method to some proper research.(ovoid the BBC).

“What’s coming up” and “I’ll talk about it later” in a video less than an hour is guff to extend a video to meet financial gains within KZbin 11 min money window!! Stop it, it tacky and greasy for the coin, do only fans if you’re going to be that oily! Everything in the video was on point but you delivered like a rent boy!
