Ask the installer for a commissioning check; the causes are usually flow temperature, hot water settings, or sizing, all listed below.
seriousFlow temperature runs at about 54.2 °C when it is 0 °C outside
Lower the heating curve in steps of 2 °C and check rooms still reach target. Every 1 °C lower typically saves 2–3% electricity.

valueReaching the fleet’s January median (3.69) would have saved about £26 in this window at 0.25 GBP/kWh. An estimate, not a promise.

Each point is one hour of space heating. Lower and flatter is cheaper; well-set radiator systems sit around 35–42 °C at 0 °C outside.
Public system published by its owner on HeatpumpMonitor.org. Cycling (starts per hour) comes from the site’s 365-day statistic. Findings use installer rules of thumb; see methodology.
