[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1104257, member: 74121"] Posting this as a correction to something I posted previously. Basically new boilers, called condensing boilers, came in after 2005. Apparently you can tell them by an extra white pipe that comes out of them. These can enjoy longer periods of being switched on at a lower heat which allows them to retain the steam and feeding it back into the heating system. So by doing this you can keep the average temp higher and use less gas than if you switched it on and off a couple of times. Old boilers prefer being switched on and off as required (which is what I do with my old one). This guy goes into a lot of detail about such matters and most of it goes over my head.
