Thanks for all that interesting, detailed info. I will certainly look into SMART TRVs somewhere down the line. Make sure you add a post when you get your preheat working. Good luck.

You'll have to let me know how the EVOHOME system is for you. A future upgrade for me will be to get some SMART tops for my existing dumb TRVs. Now bear in mind I'm not a boiler engineer but I have been an electronic engineer all my working life so am competent in some respects. I did my...

Sheridat, yes, you are correct. This is how I understand it. Firstly, my Nest integration works exactly as I intended it to. I set up the nest as a 'System' boiler which enabled a new set of options to control 'Hot Water' within the Nest app and the ability to set a schedule for preheat mode...

Brilliant, thanks for your rapid and comprehensive reply - very helpful.

It must be a pain for you to be opening up each time, especially as that little screw on the bottom gets a bit fragile over time. By having the switch, you will tend to reset it whenever you feel like it and not just when it locks up. I just filed out a little semicircle in one side of the...

I had to laugh at this... mine is the same. Looks like it has been in the home of a heavy smoker for 25 years! I might be forced to paint my porch magnolia to match!! Can you still get these from somewhere then sparkymarka or is this the last one in existence?

The Master socket needs to connect to the incoming BT feeder cable with 2 wires onto either 2 & 5 or A & B depending on type. To then connect a further extension(s) from this, you need to connect 2,5 and 3 from the master socket to the same terminals in the extension socket(s). The extension...

In case anyone comes here with similar issues (there are a lot of these readers out there after all) my experience is that every so often the device 'locks up'. That is to say, it looks 'alive' as far as the LEDs go but it is both unresponsive to fobs or to status changes (i.e.day mode on/off)...
