What’s the best way to set radiators and valves with central heating?
Before I start messing around my radiator and boiler settings, I was hoping to get some expert insight on how radiator settings affect the boiler and flow. I'm obviously not going to turn them off in this brutal weather, but will turning off radiators in unused rooms or shutting them all down make my boiler work harder or cost more? Is there a safe way to turn radiators off, or should I leave at least one on for flow? They're all currently just set to max. Boiler is around 10 years old if that changes things (combi).
Boiler warranty
Do almost all boiler brands only offer coverage/warranty for faulty parts? In other words, if a breakage occurs and it doesn't seem to be caused my a manufacturing error, will it simply not be covered? Or are there options to cover these issues, such as for when parts just wear down over time?
Hot water temperature from combi boiler
