    Does anyone know what kind of blinds these are (and how to fix them)?

    Hey all, I recently moved into a new flat that has these blinds I haven't seen before: They seem to be fixed into the PVC somehow and I can't seem to locate any screws. On the inner side there seems to be some kind of metal fixing: The issue is, one of them is ripped, so I'm trying to...

    +1 to just getting a USB ethernet jack. You can find those for £5-10 easily nowadays.

    Can I replace a TP9000 thermostat with a simple fused switch?

    Hey all, this may sound like an unusual question - I asked here about my particular setup before and people here helped me understand it, so now I have a concrete (DIY) plan here and need a sanity check. I have a Danfoss TP9000 thermostat for both my hot water and heating. However, the heating...

    What does this instruction on my thermostat back plate mean?

    Ah, got it! So if 1 and 3 aren't linked, it simply doesn't work? I guess the reason is if the output needs to be on a different voltage, then I'd need that voltage to link into 3?

    What does this instruction on my thermostat back plate mean?

    Hey all, I'm currently trying to better understand how the Emmeti CS-11 thermostat in my room works. I removed the back plate and found the wiring looks like this: I'm a bit confused with the instruction on terminal 3 - what does "link terminals 1 to 3 for 230VAC live output" mean? They are...

    Does Hive work without a thermostat (receiver only)?

    Did you mean receiver without the thermostat? I see people selling just the receiver and if it's useless without the thermostat, then it sounds like a useless thing to buy, correct?

    Does Hive work without a thermostat (receiver only)?

    I see a lot of people on eBay selling only the receiver for their Hive Active Heating without the thermostat. Assuming I have the hub, does this actually work? Can the heating be controlled with the phone app alone? What happens if e.g. the thermostat breaks or runs out of batteries?

    Why do I have so many thermostats?

    My main problem with this is, if I don't change the "master" TP9000 thermostat in the utility room and only change the ones in my rooms, Hive wouldn't be able to turn the whole system on/off, only individual rooms, which is way less power efficient (the system could be on with all valves...

    Why do I have so many thermostats?

    Apologies, was a bit hard to get the angle in a photo, but I managed to do it: Can you explain the difference? I thought it's indirect because it also receives heat from an external source (there's hot water in the building).

    How to add something like this to a website I'm designing

    In addition to what was said above, I'd like to say that this is almost always a marketing gimmick: most hosts that make this claim actually have very strict limits (e.g. unlimited space, but files must be smaller than 1 MB). There's almost always a gotcha that it has to be "reasonable" and that...

    Why do I have so many thermostats?

    It's on a water cylinder from Kingspan, which I believe heats both hot water and underfloor heating in the apartment. There's no other boiler and no gas in the apartment.

    Why do I have so many thermostats?

    Thank you both - this is super useful. If I understood correctly, every room has a separate motorized valve somewhere in the floor, in addition to the two "master" valves. These valves are controlled by the Emmeti CS11 thermostats while the TP9000 is only time-based, for the system as a whole...

    Why do I have so many thermostats?

    Hey folks, I just recently moved to the UK and the way heating systems work here is new to me - apologies if this is a dumb question. In my current flat, I have an immersion heater which consists of an unvented indirect cylinder (TI120P4) for both hot water and underfloor heating. This is...
