temperature is independent from the heating, referred to as Priority Domestic Hot Water (PDHW) and will have a flow temperature of 80<sup>o<\/sup>C, during this time the flow to the radiators will be off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CIBSE domestic heating design guide for room temperatures was followed, however, as no ground floor door is closed and we don&#8217;t have a door closed to the stairs, heat certainly rises and room temperature overshoot is inevitable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An Opentherm hall thermostat would possibly reduce temperature overshoot, but if I can strike the correct balance with flow temperature and weather compensation slope settings, I should be near enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing to be careful of with low flow temperature radiators, is that there is no sudden rush of heat, its all very steady to match the room losses, if the room is cold, it will take time to warm up, so best keep it at a reasonable set-back temperature when the system is off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A set-back temperature is a point at which the heating will resume even though it is outside of the programmed heat schedule, in my case 17<sup>o<\/sup>C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weather Compensation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Very early days yet and I&#8217;m trying to get to grips with the weather compensation slope to give me the most efficient return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My slope settings vary

control, i.e. letting the boilers flow temperature, based on the Slope Curve, balance house losses by adjusting the flow temperature, I&#8217;m having difficulty with this for two reasons;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first is that the heat output of the radiators has to exceed house losses, otherwise it would never get warm \ud83d\ude42 but this means that without any form of &#8216;internal temperature feedback, the house temperature overshoots and continues to rise,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second issue is the Slope Curve, if I adjust the room temperature control flow temperature to closer match house losses when the house is at temperature, means that it will take ages to warm up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upshot of this is that I have reverted back to control using Hive and the &#8216;Heat on Demand&#8217; (HOD) function which was the system I used before the boiler upgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have Hive TRVs on all radiators, the HOD function allows individual room temperature control, and rather than heat the whole house with &#8216;Open Loop&#8217;, enables me to have time and temperature based heating patterns based on the use of the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still playing, so keep checking in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>21 January 2024<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet more tweaking with the weather compensation slope and associated boiler room temperature control whilst the weather is still cold, the settings which seem to work well with increasing efficiency are a Slope of 13 and room temperature of 19<sup>o<\/sup>C:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-zoooom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"761\" data-id=\"7208\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5859-Medium-1024x761.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5859-Medium-1024x761.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5859-Medium-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5859-Medium-768x570.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5859-Medium.jpg 1034w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-zoooom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"7233\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/93percent.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/93percent.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/93percent-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/93percent-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-zoooom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"764\" data-id=\"7210\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5861-Medium-1024x764.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5861-Medium-1024x764.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5861-Medium-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5861-Medium-768x573.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5861-Medium.jpg 1030w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-zoooom\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1013\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"7211\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5862-Medium.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5862-Medium.jpg 1013w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5862-Medium-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chatteris.biz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/IMG_5862-Medium-768x582.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1013px) 100vw, 1013px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"updates\">Updates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>4 May 23 &#8211;
