Thanks @ericmark and @RandomGrinch - a lot of this is over my head. I'm going to replace the cylinder stat as it's a simple job and only £18. If that doesn't do the job I'm going to find someone else to look at it. Will report back - just so you're in the loop with what the problem is... if I...

Hi @RandomGrinch - in terms of the BDR91, the electrician didn’t know it was there (my fault as I didn’t know it was wired in). Our plumber linked it out. I assume he’s done this correctly. He’s happy to come back to look at it again now we know it wasn’t the Honeywell Powerhead. Are the...

Hive dual controller fitted to replace Honeywell ST9400C programmer and BDR91 wireless thermostat. We have a Worcester Bosch boiler with separate hot water tank (not a Combi). Central heating seems to work perfectly in so far as can be boosted and programmed to come on and turn off via the Hive...
