Hey guys,
My wife and I have recently moved into a new house this month, and in doing so had the whole house rewired. The electrician came and removed pre-1977 Steel cable from the home and replaced the whole mains. In doing so he has removed all of the bottom side of my Honeywell 10 way...

Good afternoon,
We have had our nest and heatlink installed for about a week now and its all working like a dream. We just did the install ourselves and it went without a hitch replacing the old Danfloss programmer with the heatlink. My question is that there is nowhere on the heatlink to...
I have an Ideal iStor HE260 and have just purchased a 3rd gen Nest Thermostat. However, I'm a little confused as to whether the nest can control my boiler's hot water.
The Nest documentation (and customer services) state that the Nest cannot control DHW on combi boilers. However, my...
I'm in the process of upgrading the controls of my heating system. (Unvented S plan with 2 heating zones)
So far I have swapped the old fashioned room stat for a nest/heat link to control the zone valve for the upstairs zone which is a trad radiator system. That all works BRILLIANTLY!
So the...
Hoping someone can help. Currently have a Drayton MiGenie which was a pleasure to fit due to it being the same fitting as the previous timer, but it's awful and support is always down, so have ordered a NEST V3, but I am stumped. Can anyone point me in the right direction for rewiring? We have...
Hi I am trying to set up a nest 3rd generation on an ariston microgenus combi boiler. I have got the system test and the radiators come on when tested. The odd occurance I have is that the hot water taps only work when the radiator is on for heating. When the radiators are set to off the water...
Hi I am sorry for resurrecting this issue but I am a bit lost and need help. Have a nest 3rd gen heatlink and I am replacing the current thermostat, a Honeywell ST900. I have connected the L /N correctly and the heatlink powers up but the pickle I face relates to the 2 wires coloured black and...
Hi All,
I have recently purchased a Nest to install alongside my combi boiler.
My boiler currently does not have a thermostat, it has a timer / controller on the boiler that I use to turn on / off the CH.
The thermostat connections on the boiler are 'volt free' and currently there is simply a...
I have installed the nest replacing Grasslin control box and Honeywell thermostat. I can only get hot water and heating when the nest thermostat isn't connected. Any suggests??
I’m looking to self install a Nest Learning Thermostat on my Worcester Bosch 280 boiler.
The wiring looks straight forward, but I just wanted to sense check before I go ahead.
The boiler doesn’t have a stat currently, so on the stat section has an unused N connection.

Hi all,
I'm installing a new Nest heating and hot water thermostat and I'm trying to identify the 'call-for-heat', 'common' and 'satisfied' wires in my existing Honeywell ST9100A hot water control so I can switch them to the Nest.
Can anyone help please?
Many thanks!!
hi this morning my alarm went off while my house was heating up in the morning.
The downstairs zone was active and we where in bed. Has anyone had issues with timed heating causing the alarm to go off.
I checked the logs, it was the lounge senor that was triggered. To add to the mix my wife...

Hi,
I'm trying to install a Nest Heat Link it to link to my Potterton Promax SL boiler, and worried I don't fully understand the wiring on the back of my old programmer!
I figure it should be fairly straightforward to swap over from my old programmer to the Heat Link, from seeing similar...
Hey all,
I've read numerous threads on here about installing Nest 3rd generation into the home (such as this good one - kudos to @stem). I'm really tempted to do this myself but my wife will kill me if I screw up the heating at this time of year! If anyone can give me some pointers, it would...
I recently installed the Nest Thermostat in my house. Since then I have noticed that my boiler seems to Heat for 10-20 mins and then shut off, then rest for 10 mins and then repeat.
This to me seems incredible ineffecient. I cannot tell you if it done this before of whether this is a new thing...
Hi,
Merry Christmas to all.
I hope I can enlist the help of some of the kind experts who read these pages. If this post seems familiar I posted something similar a few weeks ago about connecting my boiler to a Hive system. I am now in the process of swapping the Hive for a Nest 3 so my...
