Also during hot weather, the water wasted at washing up time goes into the water buts, but we haven’t done much of this so far in 2012. No, there is no evidence of this. The components of CombiSave have been carefully chosen to be suitable for all areas. You sound as if you have the ‘pre heat’ function on your boiler. That can, according to David from Combisave, cost you quite a lot over the year. I appreciate switching it off may mean you don’t get the heat in the airing cubaord in the summer months, but is that so much of a problem? I’ve never had an airing cupboard, although I remember one from my youth in my mum’s house, and so don’t really miss one. Switching the ‘pre-heat’ off might save a you a hell of a lot of money on your gas bill!
CombiSave is recommended by both the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) and Waterwise, and can be fitted in less than 20 minutes as part of a normal boiler service or repair. If you decide to go ahead, our engineers can normally fit it for you on the same day (depending on how busy they are) CombiSave is designed to open at 45 degrees centigrade. Fitters have the option to lower or raise the setting by +/- 5 degrees centigrade as required. CombiSave is fitted using two rotatable elbows. All the olives and nuts required for fitting are supplied together with instructions and a fitting guide.
Limescale control and water softening products
A CombiSave is a simple valve that monitors the temperature of your water. If you have a Combi boiler and find you spend a lot of time waiting for your water to heat up to the right temperature, a CombiSave could be a good solution for you. They're also a good idea if you're on a water meter as they'll help you save water and lower your bills as a result. Why do I need Hive Active Heating? Kenny Maxwell, Sales Manager at Teddington, said they decided to design a new model following talks with customers. BA you go on about low energy lights etc which cost the best part of a tenner each and save pennies, I don't see the difference
That's it! You'll feel the benefits of your CombiSave straight away — and it won't need any future maintenance or use any extra power David from Combisave points out, in a earlier comment to this blogpost, that you will save more in winter than in summer monhs as the incoming water temperature is much lower in the winter months, so takes longer to warm up. Hence your savings will be more in winter with a Combisave installed. Two rotatable elbows ensure it can be used on a range of 15mm pipe configurations and it does not affect a boiler’s warranty.

The Nest scheme is part of the Welsh Government’s work to reduce the number of people who are struggling to keep their homes warm and cope with high utility bills.
In terms of a time saving, well, it hasn’t saved me any time at all in the mornings whilst waiting for the shower to warm up (if I’m first in), it’s still just over a minute’s wait unfortunately.

Each CombiSave needs to be tuned to each boiler to get the best savings (Temperature and flow rate adjustments) so you could possible improve on performance. It means that even more households can now take advantage of the savings that CombiSave can generate.” Independent tests done by EA Technologies revealed that fitting a CombiSave in 50,000 homes can save a whole reservoir of water every year. Not only that, it can also save 6,500 tonnes of CO 2 annually! How a CombiSave WorksRegardless of how huge your house is, you will only need one CombiSave per boiler. I already have a CombiSmart. Will I still need a CombiSave? As my boiler's up in the loft the preheat function runs quite often because it's cooler and in winter before I fitted the timer it would preheat a couple of times every hour wasting gas and electric.
So would turning the tap on a bit achieve the same things as the CombiSave?? Would you get fed up waiting? Does it matter if you are close to the bolier? Heating and plumbing specialists Parr and Evans, which has more than 25 years of experience of providing heating systems to people in the Bristol area, now advise most customers – where appropriate – to fit a CombiSave. As soon as the hot tap is turned on, CombiSave reduces the water flow until the set temperature is achieved. From there, the valve opens fully and allows hot water to flow throughout the system. CombiSave can help you save as much as 8 litres of water each time the tap is turned on from cold. CombiSave Installation

Our team of expert engineers, electricians and plumbers can help you identify the limescale and water products you need. They'll visit you at home, chat with you about what you need, and give you a free quote. If you live in part of the UK with hard water, the limescale can damage your central heating and leave deposits in your dishwasher, kettle and washing machine. Controlling limescale helps protect your boiler and central heating system from damage that could cost you in the long run. Why do I need a system filter? Good point also about the pre-heat. I haven’t got that on, and haven’t ever used it as I felt it’s just a waste of energy really, but I’m sure a lot of people do have it switched on (is it a default setting I wonder?) Yes, it does work on the same principle as turning the hot tap slightly until the water is hot. But as stated, it would be unlikely that everyone in the house and their guests could be trained to do this each time accurately. Also you can’t regulate the flow on some appliances such as washing machines and showers. Just as we buy remotes for TVs but we could do that manually too!
