Your thermostat senses the temperature of the room in which it is located. It then transmits this information to the boiler, which then starts or stops automatically.
The best location for your room thermostat
Not too cool, so not next to the front door or against an outside wall. Otherwise, your thermostat will register a lower temperature than the rest of the room and trigger your boiler too quickly.
Not too hot, so not near a heat source such as a lamp or TV, nor in the sunlight. Your thermostat would then register a higher temperature than the rest of the room and trigger your boiler slower. Greater options are there with Gas And Heating Services Wanganui services as well.
Let your thermostat keep up with your day-night rhythm
With certain thermostats it is possible to program the desired temperature at any time of the day. Some recommendations:
Set the temperature to 18 ° C so that your bathroom is at the right temperature when you get up.
At the time you leave for work
Lower the temperature to 16 ° C.
At the time you go home.
Increase the temperature to 21 ° C. So, it will be good when you arrive.
An hour before going to sleep.
Reduce the temperature to 16 ° C. No lower. Otherwise, you will consume too much energy to heat your home again the next morning.
Want to save even more on your energy bill?
Decrease your thermostat by 1 to 2 degrees Celsius during the day and put on an extra sweater. You will save 7% on your energy bill.
Install a thermostatic valve on your radiators

Your thermostat is in a room - often in the living room - and controls the heating system. With thermostatic valves on radiators, you can also fine-tune the temperature in other rooms.
A thermostatic valve has a sensor that allows it to measure the temperature of the room. It is lower than the set temperature? In this case, the valve increases the flow of hot water into the radiator until the desired temperature is reached.
There is an alternative: a mobile room thermostat. You then take your thermostat in the room in which you plan to spend a moment: in your office during the day, in the kitchen when you cook, in the TV corner until you go to sleep.
