Hello I wanted some info on what is best in my situation. I have a biasi b-10 4 oil boiler with a indirect water heater set to 120 degrees, a hydrolevel aquastate set to 160 low limit, 180 high limit, and the purge set on. Before I had it at low limit off and high limit at 180. Its a 2 zone house and wanted to know what is best setup for this boiler during the winter and summer months? Is it better to maintain or to set it up as a cold start ?. The boiler is also 6 months old. Am I gonna save more money on oil having it maintain or cold start ? . Whats best for the boiler? Thanks.

    So shut off low limit and keep 180 for high limit? And economy will be at 2
