What temperature should my combi boiler be set at?
First and foremost, don’t keep the central heating on all the time. Instead, set the heating to only come on as and when you need it. The domestic hot water, on the other hand, can be kept on all the time, as combi boilers provide this to taps and showers on demand.
Pros: While you can use both types of ovens for cooking anything, a conventional oven is better for baking than a convection oven because the even heat of a convection oven may cause baked goods to rise and cook too quickly. Conventional ovens also have a simplicity factor going for them.
There is consensus in the industry that combi ovens offer huge savings both in electricity and gas consumption; shorter heating phase, lower cooking temperature and shorter cooking times are ultimately excellent features of such an appliance.
The combi boiler doesn’t heat water from a tank like conventional, older boilers do. Instead, it draws water directly from the mains, which is passed through the secondary heat exchanger. This gives you instant, mains-pressure hot water. The boiler is basically always on standby, waiting for you to turn on the tap.
Can you cook 2 or more dishes in the oven at once? Yes. Most people fret when it comes to cooking two dishes at once, but it’s your oven’s job to keep the internal temperature set to what you selected. It may have to work a little harder when two or more cold dishes are inserted but trust that it will do its job.
For a modern combi boiler, the radiator heating temperature should be set at or around 75 degrees celsius for the best efficiency and performance.
