Quick wins for Heating

Rising prices for heating oil and natural gas means that you need to make sure your heating system works as efficiently as possible and is well controlled.
 
  • Set your thermostat as low as is comfortable in the winter
  • Check that timer controls are correctly set and reflect occupancy hours
  • Bleed radiators at the start of the heating season
  • Check that heat emitters are unobstructed e.g. ensure radiators are not blocked by office furniture
  • Set-back the temperature for corridors and areas that are not normally occupied
  • Ensure heating and cooling ceiling mounted cassette units are not working against each other in the same space (heat up to 19 degC and cool at 24degC)
  • Ensure cold/hotspots are reported to Maintenance so they can adjust settings
  • Ensure boilers are serviced annually and controls are recalibrated
