I’m not sure if they’re permitted, but have seen this (after googling adapters)...

Ah, I actually meant I lowered the temperature, not the position. The position has remained constant at approx 1/3 from cylinder.

Thanks for the detailed explanation, it sounds like I might need a mixer type to the downstairs toilet taps. Anyway the thermostat on cylinder clicks at about 58 degrees?

Ok, so assuming I did it correctly, I turned on ch, turned down the cylinder thermostat, and no heat seems to be passing into heating pipes. The hot water valve also sounded like it closed? Heard like a scalextric sound.

How does this work? I’m intrigued.

DHW? Central heating on, in this weather, will it work? Or do I just turn it on at the clock?

Sorry, what would make what worse? So I need thermostatic mixers? Some of my taps are mixing taps (non thermostat types) should I still need these other mixers?

I’ve lowered it to 50 today, and after i think it’s reached the temperature, the motorised valve light goes out and the pump lights stay on. Then I check few minutes later and the pump lights go out as well. Ian, thank you again, the temperature has always been set at 60, but I recently...

How do I check it’s off? It’s off on the switch. Could it be wired wrong?

Yes I do have an immersion heater, but it’s turned off. Thank you for reading and replying

Wow, detailed and quick - I love it, thanks! It makes sense, that something should stop the heating of the water instead of the boiler. The current cylinder thermostat is fixed at approx 1/3 - from bottom of the tank. I did try to lower it, but still feels too hot, my kids are saying it’s...

Hello good people, I’m after some advice please. My hot water seems too hot at my taps. I have replaced my cylinder thermostat on the cylinder with a Honeywell, and it makes good contact with the metal underneath, but it still seems far too hot. It set at 60 degrees Celsius. Could it be the...
