    Water Heating Wont Work Unless Tank Thermostat Is Turned up and Down Manually!

    Have a sytem boiler with unvented cylinder with 2 heating zones plus hot water in a house we moved into recently.

    Tado thermostat not triggering boiler

    I've had my tado system in my new build for 5 years now and it's been fine. Yesterday morning I changed the batteries on the second floor thermostat and now it's not switching on the boiler to heat that floor. The thermostat display is fine and the app is fine. All systems say they are fine and...

    Was my smart thermostat installed incorrectly? Or what is the issue?

    When I set it to be on via phone, light A comes on (telling it to be on), but light B won’t come on, so the boiler doesn’t start. I either need to set A on and off several times via phone, or turn it off and on again via switch (C). When I set the water to be on, it works instead, and green...

    Hi, I just moved into a new house and it has a Glow Worm Compact 24c combi boiler and a ESI ESRTP4RF+ programmable room thermostat and I am wondering if it's worth turning on the optimum start and stop features?

    Do I need a 20 amp thermostat?

    I have bought an old house in rural France and it has an oil tank and Unical oil powered boiler (Italian I think). Its a beast of a thing but can't find any model info or any plates on it. I want to change the switch and thermostat to a digital wireless thermostat but I'm not sure what I can...

    How do I wire up this Honeywell T3R Thermostat?

    Hi, I live in a really remote part of the Highlands, so paying for a plumber (or electrician?) to do this will be brutally expensive, so I need to do it myself. I have a Grant Combi 26e boiler. I'm replacing the old thermostat with a new one. Although the boiler is a combi, I think the old...

    Warmflow B1 Thermostat Control

    The boiler is a Warmflow B1 Oil CH Boiler. Does the thermostat fail in an open state or closed state with a hard failure? Can they simply start to malfunction and not control the temperature correctly in a soft fail situation? The boiler is working but the homeowner says it's running all the...

    How do I remove this radiator thermostat?

    Hi, I’m looking for some advice on how to remove this radiator value to check if the pin is stuck. I have two similar values in the house where those radiators aren’t heating up at all.

    I have a Neura heat pump and my thermostat has failed (Theben RAM 797 b). I'm looking to replace it with another more modern one I can use with an app etc. My question is, can I replace it with any thermostat or do I require a very specific type thermostat to run the heat pump? Thanks for...

    Choice of thermostat advice please

    Hi I'm having issues with my wireless Honeywell thermostat. It's sat in the living room, set at 18C currently. It makes my Worcester Greenstar 18Ri to short cycle. So, the moment it gets cold outside my boiler works for about a minute, then stops, and starts again in about 5 minutes, then...

    Does anyone's heating actually work as intended with thermostat?

    Hi all, I keep reading about how you should use a smart thermostat. Set it to the temp to want the home to be and hey presto it takes care of itself. But realistically who does this or rather who does this work for. With mine I just use it to turn the heating on now and then for short periods...
