Here's one for the thinking Forum watchers.
I have recently installed a Rayburn LPG stove with heating, hot water and cooking facilities. I have separate programable controls for the heating and hot water system and my question concerns the most efficient way to control the hot water. Should I leave the boiler on continuous and rely on the thermostat and the insulation around the tank to regulate the the times the boiler fires up or program the boiler to come on and off at set times to top up the hot water? There are only two of us in house, no kids at home, and hot water demand is quite low.
Any thoughts would be most welcome.
