I don't see how it could. its either on or its off, it certainly is not a
power control or anything like that. As far as I am aware the same goes for
gas as Electric. its just a valve. Of course maybe the bore is different but
I've never heard of anything lie that before and many have been fitted even
if they will all need changing in a couple of years time.

Hi
Today we had a smart meter installed. This evening the boiler is running
continuously but the radiators are only warm not hot. Boiler indicates water
temperature of 50C, while it is normally 65C. I know the weather is cold but
the boiler normally copes fine. Could the smart meter installation have
caused this?
