Rob Dunger youre incredibly welcome. you also have the option of installing a ‘hub’ - so you could keep an eye on the temperature from your phone and control it remotely... just a thought for a lady of that age. take care and hope you guys are well.

Hi I’ve been thinking about getting a nest or hive system for a while but thought it would be a complex task. After watching a few KZfaq videos, I’m convinced it should be quite easy but the system in my house is slightly different to things I’ve seen on here. The house was built in 2013 and was installed with a very complex Danfoss (hence the need change) controller near the boiler. It is a pressurised water tank type system. There is a separate upstairs and downstairs heating zone valve and a hot water valve. The downstairs has a non adjustable thermostatic sensor which is set by adjusting the controller. The upstairs has another programmable thermostat (looks very similar to the controller). I don’t want to have to buy 2 new systems to control the upstairs and downstairs. I suppose if I buy one system, I could parallel both zone valves in the wiring centre and remove the upstairs stat and wiring? The boiler is downstairs in the kitchen and the wiring centre is upstairs in the cupboard with the water tank and valves. I don’t think the NEST system would work for the 12v dc stat supply as I’d have to run a cable all the way back to the kitchen to pick up the supply for it. As the hive seems to be a stand alone , am I correct in thinking this should be the one to buy?

We fit quite a few Nest installations, you can buy a little stand that you plug into a normal socket, so you can site it anywhere you need it. so it is also stand alone. good luck.

Hey. So I've just moved in to a house and the previous owners have this system fitted. Ive switched to octopus energy so will this still work? Also, does having this fitted make the pysical controls redundant? By this I mean the boiler has the water and heat twist controls on the front (low to high) and each radiator has its own twisty plastic knob on the side (goes from * to 6). Do you just max out all the physical switches on the boiler and the radiators then control everything from the hive controler? It's a bit confusing. Hope that makes sence

British gas installed this (just the control) today and we set the timer for 6am to 9pm. It's currently just after 10pm and the radiators are still piping hot. Is that normal? How long does it take for the heating to go off or is there a malfunction somewhere?

Hi Karen, to change the boost duration I believe you just press the boos button again. So you’d press it once to bring the boost menu up so you can set the temperature, and while still on that screen click the boost button again and the time should change. :)

Does anybody know why my one says it's really warm in my house when it's actually really cold? It's about 13° inside the house but the thermostat says 24. It always says it's really warm so when I want the heating to come on, I have to turn it up to some crazy number like 26° just to get some warmth. It's nowhere near a radiator.

Got one of these recently with my new boiler fitting from British gas. It replaced my timer and old thermostat. Ridiculously over complicated, could set up the old system in about two minutes, but this thing is mind bogglingly complex with no user guide. Cannot get it to do what I need and the heating is now on all of the time which I assume suits British Gas because they can now charge me about a million pounds a month to my gas bill.
