    Sorry ted1 its for central heating of the house.
    ie. Heating the rads. When I switch on boiler both get heated up. Jus looking for ppls experience of having boiler on all day as opposed to stop start all day. I understand it should be more expensive but if theres not much in the difference id prefer to leave it on.
    Thanks.
