My late mother in law’s bungalow is now empty and the insurance company have asked us to keep the heating on. There is a combi boiler (Ideal – Isar HE24) and a room thermostat in the hall. This I believe (looking at pictures of the stat and remote box) is a Honeywell Y6630D1007 but I cannot find any codes on the unit.
The heating system was covered by a company that did the annual service and carried out repairs. They said that if I set the thermostat to the ‘snowflake’ symbol the heating would come on at +5’C irrespective of any timer settings. Does anyone know if this is correct as I have no way of checking? Also, as the property is empty, I fear there is a risk of the mains feed pipes in the bungalow and roof space freezing if the temperature drops sufficiently. Is it safe to turn off the main supply, which would limit any damage should the pipes freeze?
Many thanks for your guidance.
