OK I'll do that.

Thanks for your comment. I've traced the wiring back and there's a place only a few feet from the thermostat where ithere is a strip connector with yellow, blue and red wires connected to bare, red and black which are then connected through to the thermostat (about four feet). Obviously at...

Have you had a look at the cold water tank? We had a problem similar to this and solved it by putting a length of hosepipe on the inlet to the cold water so that instead of just pouring in from the ball valve the water was fed in under the level of the water.

Thanks for the response. The reason I connected "4" to "W" and not "2" was because of the "blocks" in the circuit diagram on the old thermostat. I assumed that the one between "4" and the switch was equivalent to the "load" between "W" and "L2" on the circuit diagram for the new thermostat...

No, I couldn't either. When I googled TH147E, I came up with AUBE Technologies and the documentation on that website is the same as I've got from Wickes. The Wickes website only has a load of other makes none of which were available at our local Wickes, this was the only non-programmable...

I am planning to replace an old mechanical room thermostat with a new digital one. The old one had three connections, the new one only two. Looking through the posts on this forum, it seems that I don't need the neutral connection anymore and it should be disconnected and tidied away. This...
