Hi. I have just had a Gloworm 30 CXI Ultracom 2 installed with a Salus RT500RF Wireless Programmable Thermostat to control temperature. All my radiators have TRVs and I have noticed that the Salus is not switching the boiler off or stopping flow to the rads when it should be. Eg at 10pm I am asking to it maintain a room temp of 10c, the Salus thermometer is reading the room temp circa 22c after the heating has been on, but the boiler is still in central heating mode and the rads hot all night.
I have tested the device to make sure the transmitter is working with the receiver and the green light on the receiver does come on when a request to raise the temperature is sent, but I have never seen the green light on when I have either manually asked to drop the temp or when the program changes to say a "maintain 10c cycle" eg overnight.
I have seen on the internet that these things are notoriously unreliable. Does anyone have any advice? Installer showed me it working so had no reason to doubt it worked? I would expect the central heating mode on the boiler to switch off when the room temp was being maintained well above the set level. Does this point to a communication problem with the Salus? Thanks in advance.
