Reading all of these thermostat topics got me wondering about CPH and swing in my own system and the in-laws new modcon boiler. I have no idea what mine is set to and I'll have to try and find the manual to look up how to do that.
I have a new standard CI boiler with finned hw baseboard and more radiation than needed for my heating load. How many CPH is recommended in this case?
In-laws just had modcon installed, they have mostly finned hw baseboard and one or two CI rads across two zones. I don't know if they got new t-stats or kept their existing either. Does a modcon have a recommended CPH setting or because it modulates is it supposed to cycle more like forced air furnaces?
What would constitute short cycling in each setup?
