I think he said having seperate thermostatic controls on the radiators means the boiler will be firing more often to regulate several different temperatures in different rooms, where as 1 thermostat would mean it's firing less often as it's keeing the house at one temperature.
Oh right I see - thanks for the info Rips Good night was it last night?

Apparently not - I guess cos the boiler just ignores them and keeps the temp up where the thermostat is (should be in the hall). As long as the doors aren't wide open in the rooms where the rads are turned off you would end up saving money.
