[QUOTE="Dane, post: 95799"] Got an electric boiler in my place. One problem The max temperature of the heating system water is up at 85 - 90 degrees. Our house since nicely at 15 Degrees throughout. What i am wanting do to is have the heating on but not allow the water to get much more than 65/70 degrees max! So i am wondering Has any one done this, or got any tips for me... Im wanting a thermostat to control the heating Currently thermostat is wired direct to boiler (Full timer system also, but thats wired seperate to thermostat) What i am wanting to do is the following. If thermostat is on and water temp is below say 70 heating on, once water temp hits 70 the pipe stat would turn it off. EVEN IF the house temp was not at 15 degrees (thermostat setting) To me its a waste of energy when a boilers running so hot, the systems hot aswell and it just keeps pumping it round, id rather it switch off, let the temp drop beloew set temperature then kick back on to bring it up to temperature. (all rads are untouchable within 20 minutes of coming on) Sorry if its not that clear but any help appreciated. [/QUOTE]
