Reducing the heating temp on your boiler
This is also known as your water flow temperature. It’s the water that does into radiators.
Fifty degrees is the most efficient temperature, according to experts.
Turn off the ‘pre-heat’ boiler function
This function means you don’t have to wait as long for water to heat up. While this is a luxury, it is inefficient and expensive.
Make sure boiler pressure is correct
Boiler pressure is the pressure of the water moving through your heating system. It is best to keep yours between 1.0 and 2.0.
Bleeds radiators
Bleeding radiators makes them more efficient, as it releases air inside. This air causes cold spots and makes your boiler work hard.
How can you know your radiators need bleeding? Cold spots at the top are a giveaway, as is gurgling, or if radiators are taking longer to heat up.
