Hello everyone,
we heat with a gas condensing boiler with solar thermal for hot water preparation, underfloor heating. Since we haven't had a heating instruction yet and opinions sometimes differ, I have a few questions. We both work full-time and are not at home from 8 am to 5 pm. Hot water is needed on weekdays in the morning for 1 hour and then from 5 pm to 10 pm. Is it sensible to control the system intermittently or not? I've already heard different opinions and would like to hear yours. The solar thermal system should of course heat up when the sun is shining, but should the gas heating also warm the water on cloudy days, during times when we are not at home? And what about the required temperature for hot water, is 45 degrees enough or does it have to be set to 60? Questions upon questions^^ Maybe you can help me.
