If you haven't already done so, I would suggest balancing your system.
@gotaashp It is a pity the chart doesn't include IAT and OAT.
Did your installer balance your system?
Maximum electrical energy reduction would require setback to be performed during the lowest OAT, with slow recovery being carried out during the highe...

Based upon modelling, and the Laws of Physics and Thermodynamics, reducing the Indoor Air Temperature (IAT) will indeed reduce heat loss, which in tur...
Sorry about that, it is one of the pleasures of being old and decrepit. 🙁 I will do some calculation tomorrow.
@kev-m One thing I notice is that in milder temperatures my LWT doesn't vary much. Is that because the WC curve flattens, or the change in thermal...
What I find surprising is that you need to run at such high LWT in mild weather conditions. What is your heat loss calculation and heat emitter capaci...
