horstmann

Hi, we have our heating split across 2 levels - we can control the heating for each floor. On the Horstmann panel in the middle, there are 3 settings - heating upstairs, heating downstairs and water. I leave the heating settings on all the time, but the water is on a timer. My understanding...

Hi everybody, I have just replaced an old Horstmann Channel Plus H27 programmer with a Horstmann Channel Plus H27XL Series 2 programmer, but the new programmer duplicates whatever settings I put on the hot water channel, onto the central heating channel, and vice versa. Whichever one I change...

I moved to UK recently and my rented flat has Horstmann Radio Telemeter Series 2A electricity meter. However, I have been asking both my electricity provider SSE and my Landlord on a query for which they are not having answers. 1. Does the meter consider all appliances usage during Off peak...

Hi Everyone, I'm new here and dealing with a very bespoke system so please be gentle. Basically there are two zones in the house. Upstairs (with hot water) and downstairs. Originally the zones were controlled by two Horstmann H17 XL with separate thermostats in each zone. So far I have...

Good afternoon, I was hoping someone could help me/give me advice here regarding improving our heating system at home: We've moved into a house that we bought earlier this year and the boiler and heating controls were outdated so we upgraded the boiler to a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 8000 Life...

Hi, I recently had a fused spur plate replaced with a regular single switched socket, as the spur wasn't being used for anything (must have been an old storage heater which had since been removed). When the electrician first put it in it didn't actually work, and since he only came to replace a...

Hi, Summary: I am looking to buy a replacement battery. Does anyone know where or how to find one? I believe this is the problem. I changed the tank to a thermal store. I left the Horstmann switched off at the mains ie no power to charge the battery, for several years. Apparently they won't...

Hi, first time posting here. I’m on an Economy 7 tariff, but up until recently only used it to heat my storage heaters, but never used it to heat water in the cylinder overnight as I just use the electric shower whenever I need it. I had the boost timer to come on at 7pm for half an hour to...

Good morning, I've had a look at a few threads featuring a horstmann H37XL however the wiring on the posts is slightly different in that our box has 2 lives, earths and neutrals. Our central heating is a 2 zone controlled by Drayton ZA5 aculators, oil fired and currently using the horstmann...

Hi, I have what seems to be a complex system with a Worcester Greenstar RI condensing boiler, a hot water tank with two pumps for HW and CH, a Horstmann C21 programmer, linked to a Drayton Digistat+ wireless thermostat. I'd like to replace them with a Nest V3, but I discovered a nightmare of...

Hi all, I have searched the forum but I cannot find this issue and I have contacted the manufacturer but it is Saturday and they are not back until Monday. System: Premier Plus Unvented Cyclinder with Horstmann Electronic 7 controller. We have had a few power cuts over the last couple of...

Hi Folks, I am new to this forum and would appreciate your help. I currently have a Hortsmann Channel Plus H27XL programmer for HW & CH. I recently bought a Drayton MiGenie Wish 2 one (wireless) as i was told that it was easy to swap this over but this has baffled me? The wiring on my current...

I have a Hortsman HRFS1 wireless thermostat. It's worked fine for five years but suddenly it seems to have developed an error. The red light(power) and green light (connection) on the receiver unit start blinking together and I can hear a faint clicking noise from the receiver whenever the...

Hi all, Need some help swapping out a current T40 Thermostat for a Horstmann DRT2 Got two images below, one of the current wiring into the T40, and the other of the diagram from the DRT2. I HAVE had a look at previous threads on here and other sites, and am getting confused as I can't seems...

Hi, i replaced the old cover with a new one without replacing nor disturbing the back plate setting. However, the timer still does not work as it was not working before with the old one. Reason for me to change it because i would like to use the timer. Any advise would be appreciate.
