    Hi This is my second thermostat the other one my engineer sent back he gave me a new one and now im habing problems with this one now the little flame 🔥 isnt comming on to let me know its on and if i turn it to OFF it still comes on 3 times in the night i have to turn the boiler off . Any advive please thank you

    • @hobbitprs
      @hobbitprs Před 7 měsíci

      Not sure I can help with the flame icon. Sorry on that. However, the thermostat doesn't actually operate as on-off. You set periods of highs and lows, so day time you may want a high of 19 degrees, so the boiler will kick in when the temperature drops below 19. For the other periods, the same logic applies, it's just a lower temperature. Depending on what kind of house you get, you may find the temperature drops below 10 degrees. In my conservatory with poor insulation it's regularly at 5. If you have that overnight temperature set too high, it will kick in. The solution is to reduce the overnight temperature so it won't kick in. I hope that helps.

      @hobbitprs Před 7 měsíci

      Sorry to hear that - and sorry for missing your comment. From the community here, it sounds like this thermostat is a bit delicate and doesn't always work. It depends what you mean by doesn't turn-on. If you mean the screen is blank and you can't get any response, then that sounds like it's broken. Sorry. If it's an intermittent problem where it looks on, but doesn't switch the boiler on when you want, then check the temperature for the thermostat. It will only turn the boiler-on when the temperature in the room is below the temperature on your thermostat. I hope that helps, but fear it won't.

    what happens if the gas stove is not lighting and there is a spark?

    • @hobbitprs
      @hobbitprs Před rokem

      Hi. I'm not a gas-safe engineer, so you would need to contact a gas-safe engineer to check. However, there are safety features within the appliance to prevent the flow of gas should the flame go out. Certainly if there is a spark, then if gas is coming-out, it will ignite eventually. You should confirm that the spark is being fired at all burners. If the gas ignites from a spark at another burner, the resulting fireball will be interesting. If you smell gas before it ignites, then I suggest you should vent the room before trying to ignite.

      I'm not aware of needing to reset the signal after changing the batteries. It sounds a little odd, as this isn't how this kind of thing usually works, so could indicate a problem with your unit. Either way, you probably need to get a gas-safe engineer to look at the connection to your boiler if it's lost the connection. Sorry I can't be more help.

    Can you use an app on your phone to use this instead?? How is it wireless without wifi??

    • @hobbitprs
      @hobbitprs Před rokem

      You can get apps instead, but they're much more expensive. See things like Hive. In terms of your WiFi question, the easiest way to think about it is that the remote is generating its own WiFi signal that is not connected to the internet and only connected to your boiler. It's more like a radio-controlled car than your WiFi. If you want to use an app, then that requires an WiFi connection to connect the boiler to what ever control hub and mobile device you have. It's far more flexible as you can usually control the heating remotely over the internet rather than when you're in the house, but that comes at a premium.

    Hi, is this for the heating (boiler only) or does switching it off also turns off the heat for the water?

    • @hobbitprs
      @hobbitprs Před rokem

      It shouldn't impact your water heating. If you are having problems there, then it could be that your boiler has an internal problem. My default first step with boiler problems is to check that the water pressure within the heating system is correct including bleeding the radiators. You may need to adjust the pressure more than once if you're bleeding the radiators. Bad heating system water pressure can cause boilers to work incorrectly and have an impact on the water heating.

    My Dad had one of these installed with a new boiler and apart from being obtuse to program which is bad enough. It also has sporadic faults, today it randomly went to flashing the year 22 and stopped heating the house. No one had touched it. He couldn't work out how to get it working again. Fortunately a neighbour managed to reenter the correct time and its going again. Are there known faults with this controller too?

    @fionam8823 Před rokem

    Please can anyone help? I have this control panel and your video has been super helpful in teaching me how to set the timer. I would like my heating to be on 21°c 6am-7pm and 12°c 7pm-6am. However, the clock runs from 00:00am-11:59pm so to have my setting I would need 3 time slots (12°c 00:00am-6am, 21°c 6am-7pm, 12°c 7pm-11:59pm). Can anyone help as to how I can achieve this or a work around? When i go to bed at night can I override it to 12°c, and will it then still automatically come back on 21°c at 6am? How can I do this please? Hope this all makes sense! Thanks

    • @hobbitprs
      @hobbitprs Před rokem

      Each Programme is basically a switch to go to a different setting. Most people want what you're describing, although they usually switch the heating off at some point during the day as well, but that's your choice. Essentially you have P1 as 6AM and 21C, then 7PM as 12C. Then the clock rolls over midnight to the next day, the 7PM programme is still active, so the temperature won't change until it hits the next P1 setting for the next day. I hope that makes sense.

      Oh no... If you've removed then replaced the batteries and it's not reset, then that sounds fundamental, as that usually clears the chip cache, which is what can affect all devices with chips. I'd suggest you'll need a replacement, but you could see what an engineer says.

    • @hobbitprs

      In principle yes, but it depends on the amount of electrical interference. Don't put it next to a microwave, or put your microwave between the control and the boiler (just like WiFi), but I don't think you need to worry too much about electrics. Range is probably the bigger concern, and yes, electrics can affect range.
