Hi,
Background:
Had an extension done last year. The boiler was replaced and moved. Had a Vaillant Ecotec Plus 832 installed. My heating system is 2 zones. One zone for all the Rads in the house and the other zone for the wet UFH in the extension.
Because this was done in the summer I left the plumber to it and didn’t think anything of it.
The plumber reconnected up the existing thermostat which is a wireless Drayton digistat RF1. This has an RF reciever at the boiler.
Issue:
In the last couple of days I’ve bought a Tado Smart Thermostat setup. Installed it myself and everything is working. 1 wire needed moving according to the online instructions.
However, after speaking to Tado they have some concerns about how the boilers power supply is connected.
I have a 230v AC fused plug going direct to the reciever (was Drayton SCR, now Tado Extension kit). From here I have a L, N and E going to the boiler.
Tado say the boiler should have its own power supply and the reciever (Extension Box powered from the boiler or independently. Is this correct? What is the correct way?
Attached is a diagram of the wiring. I have a wiring centre installed to the UFH manifold etc which I haven’t included in the diagram. It’s just the power issue that concerns me.
Many thanks.
