    Hi all,

    Just wondering which setting (1-6) this should be? 

    It's a 23 year old boiler serving a 3 storey townhouse, if that makes any difference.

    Just had the boiler serviced by British Gas and noticed it was on #5, which seems high? So I put it on #3-ish.


    On your photo last October it was just below 4.

    Having older boilers serviced by British Gas can be risky.... they like to find things 'wrong' with them which require you to buy a new boiler. (as discussed earlier in the thread)

    That's a great point about the earlier photo! Lol. Thank you for that. I will keep it between 3/4 as that seems to work ok. Thanks!
