Hi guys, looking for some help. Sorry its another hive question but mine is a bit different.
Had an old timer that I replaced with the dual channel Hive 2. Swapped all the wires over & everything works the way my old timer did. The thing that makes my question different is that although my conventional boiler (pumped CH, gravity HW) has a room stat & pump for the heating these were never wired through the old timer so I was hoping someone could tell me how to do this.
At the moment the Hive works as a programmer to turn the boiler on & off but it's still the old thermostat in the hall that controls the temperature of the house. The only way to make sure the heating doesn't come on when the hot water is on is to use the off switch on the side of the old room stat or turn it right down, this is how it's always been.
The Hive has L, N & E from both the fused spur & boiler but the wires that I'm presuming are from the pump & the thermostat are joined together with a terminal block and tucked in the fused spur.
Does it sound possible to connect up these extra wires to finally have proper control of the heating? If it is, could someone point me in the right direction regarding wiring it properly if I give details of the wiring I have.
Thanks
