We stock a wide range of standard products along with many other suppliers to give you the choice of domestic Systems that you need to make the most informed decision. From as small as a radiator valve to as large as a boiler and we offer a broad range of styles and budget options to suit every need. This kit provides the facility to apply outside air temperature control to the boiler water flow temperature which provides energy savings. The outside sensor provided measures outside air temperature and sends a signal to the boiler, which adjusts the maximum boiler flow temperature in response. If outside air temperature is greater than the system design temperature, the boiler flow temperature is reduced providing running cost savings. The boiler will operate in the condensing mode more frequently increasing savings. Once the sensor is fitted it is automatically detected. The sensor operation may be configured by adjustment of the boiler operating parameters, if necessary. Increased efficiency of the central heating system When fitted with any Ideal boiler, timer and temperature control gives full compliance with Boiler+ ERP Class 2 Boiler operates more efficiently
This guide is for users of the Ideal Boilers Weather Compensation Kit, designed to enhance the efficiency of your central heating system. By using an outside sensor to adjust boiler flow temperature, you can achieve energy savings. Note that proper installation and configuration are crucial for optimal performance.
