change thermostat

[bengasman]

just paired up a dt20rf which i borrowed from a friend and it is just as bad.

how can worcester get away with selling this crap when clearly it does not work.

Would it be possible that something in the diy project was not quite done 100%?
I don't like the WB rf units myself (rebadged drayton), but they do work.
Rumour has it that they are changing to siemens.

i would hardly call pushing a few buttons on the receiver a professionals job.

well the dt10rf and now the dt20rf does not want to switch on when 2 walls are in the boilers way

If it is that easy, why can't you do it?

If it is due to the machine, and not the installer, how come none of the installers have a problem getting them to work?

i think you are missing my point here , yes i can set the thing up and it works as it should but as soon as a cavity wall and an interior wall are in its way it does not work.

Use the 0.75mm heat resistant 4 core.
Don't lay across tops of joists or near hot pipes.
