Morning Quit train ....The weekend is just around the corner !!!!

hi

[Vivianne]

Right! So! I thought let's take a nice hot shower to get a break into the dullness (as prescribed by someone here.. probably @Sazerac ;)). 
We have a new boiler, and well I haven't figured the thing out yet. Easy to use, but I want it efficient, cost friendly... it's an 80 L boiler for 2, so no need to keep it running all day long. 
Anyway.. no hot water, just tepid water.. meh!! 
Stupid boiler..

Read the directions and learn your machine, Ms V !

You can't be going into Winter w/out running HOT.

Can you at least fill up a tub with kettle water ?

 

Hot water is essential luxury.

Oh I did. From cover to cover. And it's very simple
5 modes:
Comfort high - 87 degrees Celsius, always heating when used - high in costs
Comfort low - 67 degrees Celsius, always he...etc - high in costs
Smart high - it calibrates your pattern for 1 week and heats up to 87 degrees Celsius only in that pattern -moderate in costs
Smart low - same as above but to 67 degrees Celsius - moderate in costs
Off peak - Vacation, will only heat at night to 25 degrees Celsius - low in costs

 

The problem with the smart function is that with only two ppl you don't really establish a pattern (we don't shower a lot, we use a washcloth to get clean every day) 
So when we shower it's when we really want to, which can be any time during the week Like what happened tonight, it didn't predict my shower

Oh yeah we have hot water (no tub, just a shower alas). Just a smart boiler that is not so smart after all  

[Reciprocity]

Boilers are tricky. We have one to heating the pool 

[Doreensfree]

Brrrrrr.....Hope you get it sorted !!!

@Vivianne, our new furnace thermostat has a smart sensor mode too and I turned it off because it made the furnace come on earlier than I programmed it to thus actually costing us more money not less!

[Reciprocity]

The smart thermostats are pretty cool actually, once you get the hang of them. We have an Ecobee and the possible setting are endless pretty much. It also reads humidity, tells you what the weather outside is doing (rain, sun, snowing etc.). I like it. Can't say whether it saves us and $$ but it's neat to play around with it  

[Vivianne]

I am gonna be smart too and go to sleep..

Have fun all!!!

[Sazerac]

Oh these new fangled contraptions, I swear.

I'm glad not to worry about hot water for Ms V.

I've lived without and still appreciate it everyday.

Although this summer could've turned hot water heater off

and get a hot shower/do dishes around noon from El Sol.
