    viessmann 050-w and viessmann generally

    Hi, ok thats good then, it didn't come on last night, my night setting was 18 deg, so obviously it wasn't required, overnight temps outside were 11 deg. during the day it used about 28kwh and the house felt really comfortable. It'll be a bit of a learning curve according to weather, can always...

    viessmann 050-w and viessmann generally

    Hi, I recently had a Viessmann 050 25kw combi fitted with weather comp and EPH controller, which provides basic on/off temperatures if required. It replaced my old Baxi with hot water tank etc. I'm using the CH for the first time this week, and must say it is really efficient. 10 deg outside and...

Which would save £400- 500 a year in theory, at today's prices. So payback on new boiler in 5 or 6 years. If that is how it...

    Replacing old standard boiler

    Understand what you are saying, if heating is on 13 hours a day, it uses about 80 - 90 kWh a day, up to 2800 kWh per month. Is that ok do you think compared to a new boiler. Or as you suggest I won't recoup the cost anytime soon?

    Replacing old standard boiler

    They are old rads as well, not the old big metal ones but slim ribbed panel ones. They were taken off and pressure flushed when the system was done recently. It was just an impression I had that combo wasn't very reliable and have to wait a while for hot water to come out. Also seem to need to...
