    Last Saturday I was called for a troublesome 2 year old boiler.
    You'd smell the kerosene 100 yards away !
    90-120 Vortex on a 700sq/ft timber cladded chalet, well insulated, 7 rads !!!
    Air set at 12 on RDB
    Installed by one of the better Co.

    Who needs a calculator when common sense will do ?

    I'd set it at 50
    House was only 700sq/ft and highly insulated.
    Plumber !! changed pump twice and thermostat once.
    Pump set high and pitching, I now have it at 1
    Had to leave boiler set at 90
    But at least it working properly now.
