Reduce boiler temperatures<br />

Hot water <strong>in</strong> boilers should not reach a temperature at which the<br />

water may not be used. Therefore the boiler supplier should be<br />

c<strong>on</strong>tacted to f<strong>in</strong>d out what temperature is the lowest possible for<br />

the boiler without caus<strong>in</strong>g damage. The water temperature of a<br />

hot water boiler should reach 60°C. As a rule of thumb it can be<br />

said that reduc<strong>in</strong>g the storage temperature from 65°C to 60°C<br />

cuts the heat losses by 9%.<br />
