Energy Efficiency and the Environment

Home energy use is responsible for more than ¼ of the total UK carbon emissions 

which  contribute  to  climate  change.  Heating  and  hot  water  systems  based  on 

boilers  account  for    of  this  figure,  so  it  is  important  to  understand  how  your 

controls can help to maximize energy efficiency while maintaining your comfort.
Your  Programmer  should  be  used  in  conjunction  with  appropriate  temperature 

controls.  In  order  to  save  energy  the  following  general  points  should  be 

observed:

1.  Ensure your system contains a room thermostat and a hot water thermostat, 

and that both are set to appropriate temperature levels: typically 20°C for the 

room temperature and between 50 - 60°C for the hot water temperature.

2.  Programme your heating and hot water to be off when you are not in the house. 

If you are concerned about possible frost damage to any exposed pipe work, it 

is advisable to fit a frost protection system – your installer can advise you about 

this.

3.  Think  about  how  you  use  your  domestic  hot  water  –  if  you  have  a  storage 

system, it is not necessary to have this switched on all the time, even when you 

are in the house.

4.  Consider  the  heat  up  times  required  for  your  central  heating.  Every  home 

responds differently when the heating is switched on. Adjust the start time so 

that you are not cold when you get up in the morning. A shorter heat up time is 

required for other heating periods.

5.  In  the  evening,  when  the  house  is  up  to  temperature,  it  is  often  possible  to 

switch off the heating up to an hour before you go to bed, without any noticeable 

reduction in comfort.

WHAT IS A PROGRAMMER?

...an Explanation for Householders (as recommended by the Energy Savings Trust)

Programmers allow you to set ‘On’ and ‘Off’ time periods. Some models switch the central heating and 

domestic hot water on and off at the same time, while others allow the domestic hot water and heating to 

come on and go off at different times. Set the ‘On’ and ‘Off’ time periods to suit your own lifestyle. On some 

programmers you must also set whether you want the heating and hot water to run continuously, run under 

the chosen ‘On’ and ‘Off’ heating periods, or be permanently off. The time on the programmer must be 

correct. Some types have to be adjusted in spring and autumn at the changes between Greenwich Mean 

Time and British Summer Time. You may be able to temporarily adjust the 

heating programme, for example, ‘Override’, ‘Advance’, or ‘Boost’. These 

are explained in the manufacturer’s instructions. The heating will not work 

if the room thermostat has switched the heating off. And, if you have a hot-

water cylinder, the water heating will not work if the cylinder thermostat 

detects that the hot water has reached the correct temperature.

WHAT IS A ROOM THERMOSTAT?

...an explanation for Householders (as recommended by the Energy Savings Trust)

A room thermostat simply switches the heating system on and off as necessary. It works by sensing 

the  air  temperature,  switching  on  the  heating  when  the  air  temperature  falls  below  the  thermostat 

setting, and switching it off once this set temperature has been reached. Turning a room thermostat to 

a higher setting will not make the room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on 

the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and radiators. Neither does the setting 

affect how quickly the room cools down. Turning a room thermostat to a lower setting will result in the 

room being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy. The heating system will not work if a 

time switch or programmer has switched it off. The way to set and use your room thermostat is to find 

the lowest temperature setting that you are comfortable with, and then leave it alone to do its job. The 

best way to do this is to set the room thermostat to a low temperature – say 18ºC – and then turn it up 

by one degree each day until you are comfortable with the temperature. You won’t have to adjust the 

thermostat further. Any adjustment above this setting will waste energy and cost you more money.
If  your  heating  system  is  a  boiler  with  radiators,  there  will  usually  be  only  one  room  thermostat  to 

control  the  whole  house.  But  you  can  have  different  temperatures  in  individual  rooms  by  installing 

thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) on individual radiators. If you don’t have TRVs, you should choose 

a temperature that is reasonable for the whole house. If you do have TRVs, you can choose a slightly 

higher setting to make sure that even the coldest room is comfortable, then prevent any overheating 

in other rooms by adjusting the TRVs.
Room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by 

curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions, wall or table lamps may prevent the 

thermostat from working properly.
