I am looking to wire my combi boiler with a Drayton Wiser thermostat. As part of this, I am also looking to make the following improvements to the current wiring: Replace the boiler's twin and earth with 3-core flex, as twin and earth is not compliant for high vibration and heat areas Replace...

Hi, I'm hoping to switch my old Electronic Programmer from an EPH R27 over to a Drayton Wiser 2-Channel Kit. I thought it would just be a case or removing the old EPH Programmer and popping on the new Drayton Smart Hub. But it seems things are backwards in terms of functionality when I do...

Hi all, I appreciate you help in advance, and hope this post also helps someone else in the future! I need to make a decision on what heating and hot water system to get installed. All new pipes are being laid, and I will have radiators everywhere (no UFH). My options after quite a bit of...

I'm wanting to swap around the sides of my TRV valve and Lockshield, but apart from them both being 15mm connections, are valve bodies generally universal/the same dimensions? I.e. will I have to play around with tail protrusion and inlet pipe dimensions. The valves are Drayton eB valves and...

Hi All, I want to replace my existing timer and programmer to a Hive. I’m assuming the new hive programmer replaces the Drayton Sm2. But what do I do with the Digistat wireless receiver? Do I just take its cables out of the junction box and do away with it as the hive is both a timer and...

I have a Drayton Digistat wireless(thermostat, I think) and British Gas timer and I want to replace it with Google Nest. The receiver was sitting on the wall and I removed it. It is wireless but I saw a hole in the wall behind it (new house) which is ideal so I can feed USB power to Nest...

Hi. My Honeywell CM927 has finally given up so I’ve been researching smart heating controllers to replace it. I think I’ve settled on the Drayton Wiser two channel kit which is currently £99 at Screwfix. Currently I have a Lifestyle LP241 which controls the water heating on a twice a day timer...

Moved house and want to migrate my old hive system to the new place, was previously hooked up to a combi boiler but in the new place we have a boiler and hot water tank. I’m confused with what to do with the SCR, ideally I would like hive to control both hot water and heating and bought the...

Bought few months back a straight trv drayton trv4, and got around installing it last weekend, however i noticed when the trv is closed (with white cap) there was a bit of water in the head abour 1/6 of the cap i would say, when the trv head is there in frost mode, there was a bit of water...

I’m just about to fit some new radiators and I’ve purchased some of these Drayton drain off valves to place in front of the lock shields. https://www.screwfix.com/p/drayton-15mm-compression-x-1-2-bsp-male-taper-drain-off-tail-piece-50mm-polished-chrome/3450R I haven’t applied any PTFE yet but...

I have a Drayton central heating programmer attached in the pics, and I was just wondering if I could install 3rd Gen Nest without new wiring? For clarity there is a wire link between L and 1 Cheers for the help!

Hi I had a problem with the heating coming on when only the hot water was set at the heating controller. I thought that the Drayton MA1 actuator must be faulty as it’s well over 10 years old so ordered and fitted a new one. Turns out that though that the issue was the valve pin not the actuator...

There appears to be a few posts on Wiser TRV's. Ridiculous flaw in the Drayton Wiser system This one is for schedules changing and opening vales at the wrong time. and another on the schieder wiser forum. Wiser TRV not fully closing I have a system with 9 x smart TRV's fitter Oct 22. All...

My first post in this thread. I wanted better control of a panel heater in main bedroom. Downstairs is heated by ASHP to water underfloor heating. Upstairs by panel heaters with no timing facilities. Space limitations meant I couldn’t find the right size panel heater with a timer for...

I am replacing my old Drayton RTS1 thermostat with the Meross MTS200B and I don't get the heating switching on. I thought it was going to be straightforward but at this point better to ask for help than screwing something. The old thermostat wiring is this one: The new thermostat has this...

Hi, Need a little guidance, trying to replace my analogue Drayton CombiStat to a Meross MTS200B, however I can’t get it to work, fires the boiler up then cuts off and cycles on and off. This is how I’ve wired it; N (neutral) wire to Terminal 1 on MTS200B; L (live) wire to Terminal 2...

Hey All, hoping to get me past the last hurdle of a Drayton Install Kit 1. I currently have a 2 Zone system, however the upstairs zone valve has been opened by a plumber as I really didn't need two zones. 2 year old Ideal boiler. Bought a Wiser Kit 1 and fitted it today. Images here Based on...

I came accross what I consider a ridiculous flaw in the Drayton Wiser system which I have requested Drayton to address. I had deactivated the schedules for all rooms while the system was being worked on so no rooms had an assigned climate schedule. The system had been fine in this off state for...

Hi I've just moved to a new house and I’m looking to replace my current heating system controls with a Drayton Wiser smart system. I have an Ideal Vogue Max System 32 boiler with water tank, a basic Drayton thermostat that controls hot water on a timer and a Salus thermostat. I also have a...

We have an old Potterton Suprima 100L system boiler. Having just had our PCB replaced (can anyone give me a rough cost for that? I feel we've been overcharged!), our CH is running all the time. We're left having to switch it on & off at mains. Second opinion from another engineer feels it is...
