So now I can confirm if I call for heat only the heating light comes on and if I call for water only the water light comes on. Happy days! However, I still get an error message when trying to connect the thermostat to the app "too many hot water zones". I really don't understand why? Thr Hive...

Thank you, I have changed the Hive back to normal mode (green light)

Thank you flameport. Yes it is in gravity mode (blue light), I thought I needed that as have a hot water tank? Cheers, Andrew

Hi, yes it is not a combi, I have a hot water tank. Is the thinking that I need to bridge 1 and 2 (hot water off and heating off)? On my Nest these were bridged, as well as heating off (common in Nest language?) and Live (I presume I don't need to bridge this one). Thanks, Andrew

The heating does work fine, I just don't know why both lights come on? Or whether it means that the water gets heated with the central heating on? I also still get the too many hot water zones error message when trying to add the hive thermostat to the app? Cheers, Andrew

Thank you, I changed my post above as heating doesn't seem to work, hot water does though. I think I need to bridge between heating off (2) and Live? Thanks Andrew

As an update, the hot water zone seem to work fine if I control from the receiver. So I press the hot water and we heat hot water and not the radiators. But when I press the heating both the hot water and heating lights come on, which does not seem correct. If I try to connect the thermostat...

Thank you, yes I do have a dual channel hive (hot water and heating). Before getting your post I wired the Hive up like the Nest, so linked the live to commons (wire between 1 and 2, plus wire between 2 and Live). All seemed ok (!!) Except I could not pair the thermostat as it says "Too many hot...

Hi, I've just moved to a new house and have a lot of Hive equipment that I want to use from my old house (TRVs mainly). The new house has Nest. I was hoping it would be a simple job of swapping over the receiver and isolating the T1 and T2 power (as Hive thermostat is battery). The Hive...
