Most of us unknowingly set our boiler flow temperatures too high, often at 70 or even 80°C, which leads to wasted energy and cash. Lowering the flow temperature to around 60°C could save you up to 12% on gas usage — that’s money back in your pocket! 🎉

Wondering what the flow temperature is? It’s the temperature of the water in your radiators, not the overall room temperature. So, while it might take a tad longer to heat up, you won’t notice the difference once it’s warm, all while being more efficient. 🏠💨

Look for a flue near your boiler — that’s where excess gases exit your home. If you spot too much smoke or steam, it may be a sign that your boiler’s working harder than it needs to. Adjusting your flow temperature could cut down on those emissions, saving both money and the planet. 🌿

And here’s an extra tip: Don’t crank every radiator up to max! For a cosy bedroom, setting radiators to 2 or 3 can keep things comfortable and cut costs further. It’s a win-win! ❄️

Remember, these are general guidelines, and your optimal settings depend on your home. If in doubt, consult a pro, especially if you’ve got a hot water tank.
