I just changed it as soon as the boiler had been installed. I dropped it down to around 12kW first. No change to efficiency and then dropped it the lowest I could. Which is what is recommended by the...
I tried the flow at 60c but it was taking too long for a room to warm. 65c was better but still a time lag, noticeable on colder days. I settled on 70c.
The power rating for CH is easily changed...
My Intergas 36 was installed in February 2021. No problems and last check showed it was running at 99% efficiency. The Opentherm Bridge sits between the Evohome Control panel and the boiler. No other...
Sounds like it. It has been this way for businesses for some time now. A friend found it useful during lockdowns or when staff had to isolate. He unplugged and handed to them one of the phones for...
I take the point. I am spoilt I suppose not needing the landline. Broadband costs me £20 pm with 500 MPs and each mobile is £6.95. There may be difficulties ahead for you and bruce_miranda when the...
Do away with the landline. We did a few years ago and just use mobile phones. Saves the cost of the landline. The cost of the mobiles is just under £14 per month for two £6.95 each) giving 10gb per...
I have in the past often had problems with broadband supplier’s routers. Stopped when I added a modem and third party gear with a mesh system. Since November last I have had full fibre using the...
Indeed, you say the obvious but I missed it!
Why not just switch the power off to the boiler from the main switch for a simple off? I am lucky as my Evohome system does not need/use a BDR91 and when servicing time comes the engineer simply uses...
Turn the router off, factory reset it and start it again, but then I suspect you may have done this. Occasionally I get router problems and this has usually worked.
I am going to say Intergas all the way. From what I understand, a better boiler in many ways. Service people get more call outs with WB, it has plastic parts that fail. No problems with my Intergas....
Fortunately it was only the one zone. No further problems. Eco mode I avoid as it seemed to fire things up when not needed. Hence not really eco.
I had a phantom override yesterday. Getting up at 05:00 I heard the boiler firing up. Nothing was set to be on and I don’t use Eco mode on the boiler. The app showed me that in one room the...
Perhaps I am a little more fortunate. Generally when my heating is off, say during the night, room temperatures drop but still remain between 5C and 15C above the outside temperature. Much depends on...
I am not convinced about the advantages of having the outside temperature controlling anything. It shows in my app and usually when I access it, it is about 1C out. I don’t intended to configure it...
I keep a spreadsheet of each month’s usage - kWhs and cost. I used less energy in 2021 than I did in 2020 partly due to my increasing loft insulation to 300mm in January 2021 and replacing my old...
Much depends on the boiler you have but installing is not complex. Certainly not using OpenTherm with an Intergas combi. The latter is very much a simple DIY job
Hopefully somebody here can make a recommendation for you. Those on the Honeywell site aren't all up to the task. I found the same with recommended Intergas installers. Honeywell may have selected...
I concur, weather compensation and optimisation are unnecessary. Just set it up and don't keep playing with it!
Contact them and ask them to push it out to you.
I have had Evohome for nearly 8 years. It works fine. The only issues were two. One was of my doing when I first set it up not reading the manual properly. The other was the DMW sensor losing contact...
I can’t find the original and if Richard is reading these pages he may repost. What he wrote is the same as the manual but it is clearer and easier to follow. If doing a fresh reset, it does not need...
I would stick with Evohome if you can. Evohome, OpenTherm and Intergas work well together.
It may be you need to go through the tedious process of wiping everything and starting afresh to ensure...
They don’t appear singly when I log into Amazon only packs of 4 at £315.32 and they are listed as out of stock. They appear on eBay but over £80.
An hour each end of the day was always fine for me and we never ran out of hot water.
