Default Best way to set up gas central heating controls

If it's a condensing boiler, the most efficient position is to
set the boiler temperature as low as you can, which still manages

the room stat to click off.


I`ll give that a go and see how it feels/costs as I am currently
monitoring gas usage on a daily basis until I get a good compromise.


The daily weather will have too much influence, it will tend to mask the
effects of any changes you make to the settings. Much better to try
settings for a week at a time and record the gas use per week, perhaps
making a note about the weather for each week, temperature and wind
mainly.
