9 ENERGY SAVINGS AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Comfort, cost savings and environmentally-aware use can go
hand-in-hand. This sections contains:
•
tips on saving energy
•
tips on correctly setting the room thermostat.
9.1 Tips on saving energy
•
Ensure that the room in which the Remeha Avanta Plus
is fitted is well ventilated. Do not seal up ventilation open-
ings.
•
Place radiator foil on walls behind radiators; this reflects
heat which is otherwise wasted.
•
Do not box radiators in or hang curtains in front of them.
•
Insulate pipes in rooms which do not have to be heated
(cellars and crawl spaces).
•
Close radiator valves in rooms which people are not
using.
•
Do not let hot (and cold) water flow unnecessarily.
•
Fit an economy shower head; this can save up to 40%
energy.
•
Take a shower instead of a bath; a bath uses twice as
much water and energy.
9.2 Room thermostats and settings
The room thermostat is available in the following designs:
LTALW7H000222a
LT.AL.W7H.000.222
•
2-wire on/off thermostat
•
Modulating thermostat (in combination with a timer clock)
•
Timer-operated and programmable thermostat
The thermostat type and settings affect the total energy con-
sumption.
A few tips:
•
A modulating thermostat, possibly in combination with
thermostatic radiator valves, is energy-efficient and offers
a high level of comfort; this combination enables the tem-
perature to be set individually for each room. However, do
not fit a thermostatic radiator valve in the room where the
room thermostat is located.
•
Opening and/or closing thermostatic radiator valves fully
results in undesirable temperature fluctuations; turn the
thermostat control or valve up or down in small steps.
•
Set the thermostat to its night-time level (approx. 15°C)
half an hour before going to bed. This saves fuel costs
and energy.
•
Set the thermostat to a lower level well before leaving a
room.
•
Set the water temperature
p1
lower in summer than in
winter (e.g. 60° and 80°C, respectively) if an on/off ther-
mostat is being used.
•
When setting a timer-operated and programmable ther-
mostat, don’t forget to take account of holidays and days
when no one is at home.
