compensation
Workers' compensation or workers' comp is a form of insurance providing wage replacement and medical benefits to employees injured in the course of employment in exchange for mandatory relinquishment of the employee's right to sue his or her employer for the tort of negligence. The trade-off between assured, limited coverage and lack of recourse outside the worker compensation system is known as "the compensation bargain". One of the problems that the compensation bargain solved is the problem of employers becoming insolvent as a result of high damage awards. The system of collective liability was created to prevent that, and thus to ensure security of compensation to the workers.
While plans differ among jurisdictions, provision can be made for weekly payments in place of wages (functioning in this case as a form of disability insurance), compensation for economic loss (past and future), reimbursement or payment of medical and like expenses (functioning in this case as a form of health insurance), and benefits payable to the dependents of workers killed during employment.
General damage for pain and suffering, and punitive damages for employer negligence, are generally not available in workers' compensation plans, and negligence is generally not an issue in the case.
Does anyone know of a weather compensation unit that can be fitted to a cylinder? I have an Ideal Logic Max H24 which heats a thermal store. The boiler can take an Ideal weather compensation unit to raise the target flow temperature as the outside temperature drops, but the store temperature...
Hi looking for some advice here if anyone would be so kind.
Our existing system consists of an Ideal Logic Heat H15 heat only boiler paired to a 180L Kingspan Tribune XE Unvented Indirect Hot Water Cylinder (this is the Dual Stat version).
Zone 1 (Downstairs) consists of 7 Radiators + Plumbed...
I'm wanting to install weather comp on my Baxi Platinum+ system boiler (GC No: 41-470-95). This is because the house is heated using underfloor heating which is mixing down to 35c but the boiler is set to 70c to heat the unvented cylinder up to 60-65c. The idea is to select a curve more suited...
We are a few months into our Viessmann Vitodens 100-W 19KW Heat Only boiler and it is working fine.
We replaced an old 1999 Baxi. Our house is a 2 bathroom 4 bed detatched, built 1999.
The engineer did not really know the Viessmann boiler and I am not convinced his approach of “turn everything...
Hello all,
We have a Worcester Bosch GB162 100kw boiler in a residential block for the communal heating serving 12 flats. We currently sporadically manually set the boiler's flow temperature (e.g. 60 degrees when not too cold and 70 degrees when cold) on the boiler itself and use a timer to...
Evening chaps. As the title says, can a boiler with weather comp run with an optimising room stat? I have a Glowworm Flexicom 35cx that can accept an external (outside) sensor, and the main controls is a Honeywell CMT927 optimising room stat. Reason I ask is I think they will fight each other as...
I know this 'which boiler' thing has been done to death but with more manufacturers offering higher modulation rates I'd really like to get my head around it.
When it comes to reccomending the best im looking for high modulation and good load/ weather compensation options.
Whos leading the way...
Well, this is a new one on me. Has anyone got any thoughts on the following?
I completed a bathroom job and invoiced for the last portion of labour earlier this week. They had expressed how delighted they were with the finished article and that it was a lovely job. Fast forward to a my first...
Hi - new to the forum, thanks in advance for any advice.
I have a Greenstar 30cdi boiler with currently a boiler mounted FW100 weather compensation controller. I would like to wall mount the FW100 to replace the old Honeywell T6360-1028 mechanical thermostat which is currently in the hallway...
I had a new Atag 35+ Economiser fitted in May with an outdoor weather sensor and using the Atag Zone controller with it.
So far it's been doing what I expect and reducing the flow and return so that the boiler is condensing.
Now we're getting colder weather, I can't seem to get the house to be...
A query that comes to mind.
What do you do if you’re installing outdoor temperature compensation with a conventional system – heat-only or system boiler with diverter valve and HW cylinder?
As the boiler flow temperature is reduced by the outdoor temperature compensation it could be too low to...
I've picked up a Worcester Fw100 programmer for a new boiler install but it didn't come with a weather compensation sensor, are all sensors equal or will I have to source a Worcester sensor for it to work? If so is there a specific one I need to get? TIA
Just looking at the gas safe mag about the 4 choices to add for boiler plus regulations. One of the four listed is load compensation, i'm confused.. The boiler does the load compensation with room stat.. Why have they listed something that is already part of the boiler?
I have a one bedroom flat which I rent and is heated by a Valiant ecotec plus, although I've never had any complaints I've never been completely happy with the control system so was thinking of upgrading perhaps to a weather compensated version like the VRC470 (could be wired or wireless). My...
As above - I'm looking for information on Opentherm and weather compensation.
If anyone has documentation, links to websites, manufacturers resources, etc etc. please would you share?
Looking to get up to speed with the principles and theory behind this very quickly!
Also, if anyone has...
Anyone recommend a heating controller with weather compensation? It needs to serve 2 heating zones and 1 hot water (unvented).
Ideally internet connected, something like the Worcester WAVE, but unfortunately the WAVE only does 1 heating zone and also requires their internal diverter valve...
Just had a WB combi installed and went for their Wave controller, a feature of which is weather compensation.
Enabled weather compensation during the day yesterday when the temp setting was 14C. Actual inside temp was 19C, and outside was 11C.
I understand (well, perhaps that's over-stating...
I have a client who wants is heating system to be as high tech and gadgety as possible. Would a wireless nest with weather compensation be any good? It's a combi boiler.
