Baxi Combi Boiler - How did I get my heating to turn on via the thermostat!!

Hiya,

I recently moved into a house with a baxi combi boiler, now it is starting to get a bit colder I wanted to set my heating so it comes on when it is under a certain tempeature via the thermostat.

On looking at the dial on the boiler it only has 3 settings for the heater which are : Off, Constant and Timer. The manual does'nt have anything in. Has anyone got any ideas??

Thanks

    So do you actually have a thermostat? If I understand your question, set it to constant and use the thermostat. If you actually have one, it is always controlling the temperature, how well depends on how well it is located and installed.

    Had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee Stating that the people
    Had forfeited the confidence of the government And could win it back only
    By redoubled efforts. Would it not be easier In that case for the government
    To dissolve the people
    And elect another?

    Set the heating to constant and adjust the thermostat to the temperature you want.

    I do this with mine so the house temperature never drops below twelve. I turn it up in the morning for a while and again in the evening.
