I am about to replace my radiators (and piping) and doing the heat loss calculations. I am wondering if the T50 rating on radiators is still reasonable. Wouldn't T40 be more efficient with today's boilers, or would the difference be hardly noticeably?
I guess T40 would also be at the upper...

Hi, I have a Worcester greenstar Ri on a Y plan system with hot water cylinder. Problem I'm having is heating won't switch off once on, it ignores the room stat and programme and stays on. I've tried; new 3port motorised valve, new programmer/timer and also new room stat. I've also disconnected...
Could anyone please provide an idiots guide how to change the D0 setting on my boiler. When I open the panel I'm faced with four buttons Bottom two + and - top two - -. That would be a great starting point.
My D0 setting is apparently D00 (auto) and to cut a long story short, my boiler has...
