@kevh yes, both ends actually. They have been pretty emphatic about not dropping the Cosy 9 below 36c and I’ve been told by one techie that it can’t ...
No it doesn't: as I commented on the Cosy 9 thread, the flow temps on the Cosy systems can't be lowered enough to deal with oversized radiators and "a...
I haven't and it is definitely not as loud as being reported here. The Cosy 12 is not starting from a whisper baseline though. I haven't reported an...
@toodles I believe that is the case. At warmer temps, say >4c, it's quiet, and it's definitely not as noisy as reported here for the Cosy 12. I d...

I had two radiators upsized in the porch and downstairs wc as these two rooms just never got up to temp, even with the rest of the house overheating. ...
@swwils Unfortunately they give access to very little data through their app and I have no additional sensors. I have noticed real-time draw through ...
@swwils On my Cosy9 when it is working hard, the blown air is noticeable at a height difference of 3m, horizontal distance of 1.5m and through triple ...
