Just wondering if anybody can help me out here. I have an oil fire
boiler for the central heating and hot water. We've been in the hous for a few months now and we seem to be using a lot of oil and I' trying to see if I can get the boiler running more efficiently
Now it's a big house (2600 sq feet) and I understand that a house tha size will be hard to heat. The heating would be on inthe morning for a hour and in the eveniong for 2-3 hours. There is 15 radiators and th hot water cylinder. The boiler is 120000 Btu (35Kw) with a 0.65m nozzle in the burner.
A few days ago I timed the cycling on the boiler when it was up t temperature and found that the burner was coming on for 2.5 mins an then of for approx. 2.5 mins which I thought a bit excessive.
I've tried searching for info but find it hard to find anything on th boiler cycling question. I had a look at the sedbuk website but don' have all the measurments to size the boiler - need to find the drawing again.
Any inputs much appreciated................
