Thanks ....simple, clear instruction. I was tearing my hair out reading the manual which is no use at all 😂

My issue with this is we turn the thermostat to say 21 degrees, it reaches that temperature, and shuts the radiators down to keep it at 21, the problem with this is the house just seems to lose heat quickly and there isn't that slow radiator cool down period from the previous simple on/off boiler we used to have.

@newboilerblackpool 5 ай бұрын

You could have poor insulation in your property which is not retaining heat very well. Depending how cold it is outside will depend how quick it drops in temp again

Thanks mate, was doing my head in trying to work it out with the online manual. Wasn't clear regarding clicking in the wheel button and holding down the menu button.

Impressed with so many questions answered OP! How does the boiler know which time program to use? e.g. If I set mon, tue, wed etc all separately and then set Mon-Fri timers, will it just take the last one I set (Mon-Fri) and ignore the individual days previously set? And how would I get back to individually set days? Do I just set them again and the device will change the option from Mon-Fri to Mon, Tue, Weds individually set times?

I have a problem with mines, when I press the any buttons it doesn’t light up anymore is because of the batteries?

@karenwilson9723 9 ай бұрын

I’ve set the heating times but the bars on the bottom are all on. So the heating won’t go on to auto. I’ve done the water settings and that looks like your video. What have I done wrong ?

@cardi8865 5 ай бұрын

Hi, thanks for all your help - I just wanted to check, using the settings you exampled - does it mean that the heating is off from 10pm until 7am? Ideally i just want three periods 6am-10am @ 24c, 10am until 6pm @ 20c and 6pm until 6am the next day @ 18c. I cant find anywhere how to leave the heating at 18c all night!

@newboilerblackpool 5 ай бұрын

Sure, in order to leave your temperature 18 at night you need to set the off temperature to 18 during that time period. Example - 20c pm -10pm 18c 10pm - 6am

@ivecamperbuild_thomas4084 7 ай бұрын

So do you just plug the Receiver in the bottom of the boiler and it works or do you need to connect it some way

@newboilerblackpool 7 ай бұрын

Yes. As easy as that. Auto connects 👍

We have this thermostat. The CH is in off position temp showing as 20 degrees. When I push the circle I get permanently 5 degrees. Yesterday evening the heating came on randomly. Can u explain. Thank you very much

@newboilerblackpool 10 ай бұрын

Hi, when you twist the dial the central heating will only come on when the temperature of your room drops below the permanent setting! The heating should never operate in the off position or when current temperature is above the desired permanent temperature. Hope that helps

Hi how do I remove it to use as mobile unit. Does it have a back to cover exposed batteries?

@newboilerblackpool 8 ай бұрын

Bottom of the unit is a tiny slot, you need to get a flat screwdriver in there any prize it away. It then separates from the wall bracket 👍 batteries are there. You can also buy a stand if you don’t want it on the wall

@soovritibostone3114 9 ай бұрын

Do I need to put a timer for the hot water (tap icon) for my heating to work on a timer ? Do they work separately?

@newboilerblackpool 9 ай бұрын

Completely separate for combi boilers 👍

I have the same problem. No RF signal said and I took out the key from the boiler, turned the boiler on without key, boiler off, put in the key, boiler on and still have the same problem. If I touch on the thermostat the heating button is not reactive at all. On the display is still ON.

How do you change the temperature of the water heating?

@newboilerblackpool 11 ай бұрын

You have to do that on the boiler not the control. This is for room temp only

@aegisofperdition Жыл бұрын

Hello. My boiler seems to be not stopping at all. I've programmed the hours. Does the end temperature (let's say 6am at 15 degrees till 12pm at 16 degrees) mean that boiler will try to keep that temperature up until next period of heating? Thanks for any help!

@newboilerblackpool Жыл бұрын

Use the second temperature as the “off”temperature. Turn the off temp quite low if you want the heating off and no risk of coming on

@julianbeesley5059 8 ай бұрын

So if the off temperature is high the system will remain on, until the next programmed on time, that might explain while on Auto my heating isn’t going off at night.

Hi , i have programmed it to come on lets say at the mo its selected as 5:45 - 7.00 am and 14:00 - 16:00 pm but i hear it fire up outside of these times and heat the radiators , i’m quite paranoid thinking when I’m out of the house mainly at work it will turn on any suggestions?

@newboilerblackpool 8 ай бұрын

Make sure the OFF temperature is set very low. Otherwise it will come on during its off period if the house drops in temp

@wendymakin2515 Жыл бұрын

How do u switch just heating off in summer

@newboilerblackpool 11 ай бұрын

Either press the top left button until it reads OFF. Or when ON … twist dial to a low temperature and it won’t come on in summer 👍

@spongebabe27 Ай бұрын

If you just turn the dial and press nothing else, does it just raise the temperature temporarily or does it mess with the whole setting? My folks are out of town and I was cold as hell but they're a bit particular about these things and if it's 4 degrees hotter every Monday I think they'll begin to suspect I messed with it 😂

Try it on manual control. Heating on. Twist dial to 25. If control doesn’t work at all. It needs replacing. If it works on manual, there’s an issue on the timer side

Press the radiator sign top left. Keep pressing until the top left display says ON… then simply twist the circle dial and choose how warm you’d like your property. That’s it 👍
