I'm moving intorented accommodation next week which has an old style baxi back boiler. It has timer controls for hot water and heating and an emergen hearer.

What is the best way to set the timer and stuff like that up for efficiency?

I'm used to a combined boiler where I can get hot water when I want but tbh I'm not sure how these back boilers work!!
