At night we keep only our room & our young son's room on/monitored via the Radiator HR92s.
In our bedroom the heat from the two of us generally keeps the room above the 18 degrees we set it at, but our son's room does need constant top ups throughout the night - most nights.
This means the boiler is cycling on/off every 10 minutes for maybe 1 minute to boost the heat.
I am concerned that our new Worcester Bosch boiler is going to suffer with this very regular cycling. I figured at 6 times an hour, for 10 hours for weeks on end is a *lot* of on/offs - something most appliances don't like.
Should I be worried about this? Is it worth increasing the 10 minutes to 15mins and sacrificing some of the Evohome control for the sake of the boiler longevity?
Cheers
