VerifiedHi my name is XXXXX XXXXX lets see if we can get you sorted in the shortest possible time. With all the modern controls the only way to do this would be to turn your room thermostat up (as this turns off the heating completely) and turn the boiler down to minimum. The boiler will still turn on and off but will keep the house at a constant low temperature.
