Thanks for the replies guys... RF T-EOL, i assume you are talking about my selection of PIRs? I only chose the prestige PIRs because it fit my budget and didnt want to get the cheapest ones! Can you recommend a suitable PIR? Or do you think i should upgrade and get a premier box instead...

Thanks for the replies! Ill try that and let you know how I get on. All the other rads in the house are normal so im guessing this is one from the old system maybe that was not changed over. My house is kinda cold so i want to upgrade some of the rads. I guess i cant simply buy bigger...
