Combination boiler with an empty flat in winter - what should I turn off and leave on

[doug firr]

Hi
My flat will be empty for about 2 weeks. It has a condensing combi boiler.

Should I leave the heating on and turn off the main water supply? Whats the conventional wisdom here?

Thanks!
Doug

Turn the thermostat on to low and leave it on.

I have a programmable room stat and it has a holiday setting, whenever I go away I leave it on . If you turn the water off you still have water in the rads, toilet etc so it can freeze. Leaving the heating on low is the best option
