Thanks I tried two, separate room thermometers. Neither agreed with each other but the probe one tracked the stat readout but with +0.3 degC difference. It is a probe with low thermal mass and is located next to the stat vent slots (top left hand corner). Because the thermal mass is different to...

I've had time to check the "span". When the timer comes on in the morning and with the room at 17.5 degC (air temp) and with the stat set to 19 degC then the pump starts and the reds get hot. The air temp rises and when at 19.5 degC air temp, the stat indicates 19 degC (lags), When the air temp...

Thanks again. Because I have a Thermal Store and because the stat just controls the pump for the rads, not having Proportional Bandwidth is just fine. I probably thought it had Proportional Bandwidth when I was trying to understand what was going on - sorry for the confusion. I have started...

Thanks - I can see the difference now between Hysteresis and PB. The temperature is shown on the stat display. The receiver for the stat has a red "on" light and when this on, the Alpha Pump green light is also on. I can only think that the programmable stat I have doesn't have PB. This is...

Hi, we moved house 2 years ago and are very pleased with the Thermal Store that was already installed. Running costs (y/e 2015) for a 4 bed large house built 1991 are £70 per month total for elec (including elec oven) and gas (for ch and hob). I have installed a wireless programmable stat that...

Thanks a million for all the replies and ideas. The solution for the sink is to move it to a different position away from the sockets. The Forum has assisted us to look again and it turns out, there always was a better position for the Sink that was glaringly obvious once we looked. My wife...

From EFLImpudence Sorry to be vague: The existing cooker control unit is mounted on the wall to the left of the oven. The cooker outlet is below the work surface. The in-built oven is to the right. With the new layout, the cooker control unit, the cooker outlet and the built-in oven...

Thanks - I'll certainly steer clear of the plastic pipes. With the rcd, is there still the need for all pipework to be bonded? Regarding the sink, I need move the sink (for the 15th time!!!). As part of the relayout, the existing fitted oven "cooker socket" will need to be moved...

Hi, I'm new here and have read the topics about sockets near sinks. I'm planning a kitchen relayout. There may be some changes to the socket locations and if so, the work will be done and inspected by the electrician. If possible, we want to avoid having to move sockets etc. The house has a...
