New to the site and looking for help.
Recently, I decided to balance my heating system as some radiators where barely getting warm compared to others and after checking they didn't need bleeding, this seemed like the next step.
I have balanced the system and all the radiators get hot at roughly the same rate so it seems to have worked. But due to this, the heating system seems to have to be on A LOT longer than before to heat up the rooms. I understand this will happen due to the slower rate of feed into each radiator but I wasn't expecting so much of a difference.
My question is... Will this cost more in gas?
Seems like a stupid question really but I don't know whether the boiler will retain more heat (meaning it won't burn as long) even though the system is on or whether it doesn't effect the boiler like that meaning it's simply just gunna burn gas like there's no tomorrow.
Also, I think it's important to know that we have a brand new boiler. 1 week old.
Thanks 👍
