    COMPAP THERMOSTATIC RADIATOR VALVE QUESTION

    I think the darker grey levers are the ones for setting upper and lower temp limits as these slide out. However I have just tried doing this, moving a lever etc and the valve still turns fully as though nothing had happened. It is the light grey plastic lever which only slides out about 1cm...

    CHANGE FROM WALL MOUNTED TO WIRELESS THERMOSTAT

    Thanks for all your help D_Hailsham. One last set of questions Im afraid. What does it mean by binding / rebinding. Does it mean to link the relay and the wireless stat together? In a way a bit like hooking up a laptop to a wireless internet box via the IP addresses etc? Also what does...

    CHANGE FROM WALL MOUNTED TO WIRELESS THERMOSTAT

    Thanks D_Hailsham The rad I mean is on the landing at the top of the stairs. I have shut this down to about setting 2 because it gets hot and I don't want the stat to turn off as a result. The boiler is only about 4 years old and is a Vailant thermoCompact. The timer was new this year...

    CHANGE FROM WALL MOUNTED TO WIRELESS THERMOSTAT

    The thermostat is based at the top of the stairs. The landing is a typical "reverse back" format to the stairs and leads around a corner to bedrooms. The radiator (with TRV fitted) is at the corner - it is normally set quite low because its one of the few rads which seem to throw out heat well...

    CHANGE FROM WALL MOUNTED TO WIRELESS THERMOSTAT

    I have a wall mounted thermostat at the top of the stairs where there is a radiator within 4 metres. As the location is relatively enclosed the heating doesn't seem to be working very efficiently. Is there any mileage if I changed to a wireless thermostat instead and if I do how does that...
