    central heating switching off on vaillant???

    simond. agree with your comments about the honeywell which i also use. Salus aint that bad if fitted properly. It is really easy to operate which lots of customers like. I always give them a choice. I think - Jess - that its just crossed wires. Prob S/L from term 3 from the vaillant is...

    central heating switching off on vaillant???

    Hi Sam Used the Salus quite a bit now as well as the honeywell wireless. I think that the salus is OK. It does what it should and importantly it is very easy for the customer to set up. Got a good range of approx 30m. Receiver sits near the boiler and can take either 230v or volt free. I...

    central heating switching off on vaillant???

    Hi Dave. Red light on the salus just means its switched on. Theres a switch behind the cover plate to turn it off. Green led when the stat is calling for heat. Seems like wires crossed in the receiver. Can happen as its not that clearly labelled :roll:

    central heating switching off on vaillant???

    Easy mistake to sometimes make, and easy to fix if switched lives crossed.

    central heating switching off on vaillant???

    Hi Jess. Youve got a Salus RT500RF wireless programmable room thermostat. I use them and like them. Seems you are not getting a call for heat sent when the stat is asking the ecotec831 for it? The two wires from the boiler will be a switched live -on and switched live -off. Not sure...

    RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A RF ROOM STAT

    Hot water always gets priority in a combi. When the C/H is on and you run the tap it switches over to hot water mode. Turn the tap off and back to C/H (as long as you stat is calling for heat)

    BG day -any hints (useful)

    No. If i was one of the lucky ones to get all the 6 'must get' questions right. Also the pass mark was set at 60%. Then the assessor said that they sit down with your application form and decide wether or not to call you back for the interview. So passing that theory test is NO guarantee of...

    Then you were probably the only one who got those right. I used the calculator as well Same as you with the unsafe pictures. I usually refer to book Again, all 6 questions which you had to get right were highlighted. We were told that its going to take up to 2 weeks before being...

    All of my paper was closed book. What did i say about the calculator :wink: Same as you on the picture of the flattened gas pipe that was soldered but stated to be 'gas tight'. I classed it as ID -inappropriate fitting. However, a couple marked it as NCS :roll:

    RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A RF ROOM STAT

    i quite like the salus. not overcomplicated to install or set up. Easy for the customer to use. Pick them up for approx £50. Decent RF range as well.

    Not sure mate. I'm in the same boat as you. My assessment is tomorrow afternoon at Leeds. If i'd been before you i would have posted it here to help. I think that there will prob be a question paper on gas regs with the obvious flues, ventillation. Maybe gas rating and ventilation to work...

    RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A RF ROOM STAT

    Just used a Salus 500RF on the same model boiler. Nice bit of kit and not too expensive. It can run on 230 and well as voltage free. Good for the Vaillant which has 230V S/L
