Energy-saving advice
4
Keep the room in which the boiler is installed well ventilated.
4
Do not block ventilation outlets.
4
Do not cover the radiators. Do not hang curtains in front of the
radiators.

Install reflective panels behind the radiators to prevent heat
losses.
4
Insulate the pipes in rooms that are not heated (cellars and lofts).
4
Close the radiators in rooms not in use.
4
Do not run hot (or cold) water pointlessly.

The setting of the control panel and/or of the remote control has a
considerable influence on energy consumption.
A few tips
:
4
In the room in which the room thermostat is installed, it’s advised
not to use thermostatic valve radiators. If a thermostatic valve is
used the valve must be fully opened.
4
Completely closing and opening thermostatic valve radiators
causes undesirable temperature fluctuations. Open and close
thermostatic valves in small steps.
4
Lower the temperature to around 20°C. This reduces heating costs
and energy consumption.
4
Lower the temperature when you air the rooms.
4
When setting a time schedule , bear days when you are absent
and holidays in mind.
