Okay, thanks for that. Makes sense what you are saying. The idea was there but I think the end result doesn’t seem to be worth the trouble. thanks for all the info and your time though,it’s clarified a few things that I didn’t know.

Feel free to shoot me down -the MPRT in the hall, which controls the downstairs heating, backs into a cupboard where I can probably access the 2 wires that Power it. The cupboard also has a 3 pin socket. Can I take the 2 wires from the MPRT, use them in the hive receiver and power it by a plug...

Thanks for the info- I've has quick look on the internet at them - got plenty of time to browse the options over the next few weeks!

Great stuff, thanks for the info-some things to think about. Looks like the Hive replacement is going to be too much of a faff with changes to wiring and not really worth the effort. Thanks to @stem for the info regarding the workings of the system. I’ve got some sonoff switches controlling...

Thanks for your time on this. The MPRT is how you describe with 2 wires into a wall. It is in the hall with the MEP 2 rooms away in the utility room. I now remember reading about the Myson smart Start! The main thing I was wishing for was the remote control of the heating using the Hive; if that...

Exactly as you describe! I’m sure the Myson is a not a ‘learning’ thermostat. It does its job quite well however I managed to get the Hive stuff at a really good price and i just fancied having the option of remote control using an app on the phone!

Thanks.yes it is not a combo and i have 3 motorised valves next to the hot water tank. There is a brown wire in the programmer linking the live terminal to terminal 3 which I think powers the HW. I have removed that link with no effect on the CH. Terminal 4 on the hive receiver is marked as CH...

Hi,thanks for your reply. I don’t think that the programmer is actually doing any programming, it is just acting like a permanent on switch to the thermostats. All controlling is done at the thermostat end. The hive receiver does not seem to have any control over the power supply to the...

Logik 12 boiler with hot water tank with Myson MEP1c programmer. Dual zone heating system- downstairs controlled by Myson wired stat in the hall and upstairs by wireless stat. (I only want to control the downstairs heating and HW at this time). Now that we are all locked at home for the next few...
