Hey folks,
I'm pretty sure this is a very beginner question, but I wanted to get some advice before I crack-on with this project, just in case it can't be done.
I have an Ariston Clas Premium Evo boiler in my place (in Madrid), but it doesn't have any timer or any thermostat installed anywhere. As far as I can tell, I can only turn the heating on and off manually on the boiler (as you can see here, the circle on the right is where the optional timer should be):
I wanted to install some form of thermostat to give me some sort of control over the heating timings, so I don't have to remember to manually turn it on and off all of the time, it's really inconvenient. I haven't got the thermostat yet, but it will probably be along the lines of a BEOK one I've used before with WiFi controls etc. But before I go ahead, I wanted to make sure I can even install it, I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking at.
This is the PCB of the boiler:
The guides I've seen for the Ariston-specific control unit have it plugging into the Orange BUS port on the PCB. I am not sure if I need to wire any 3rd party thermostat into there, or if I should be using the TA1 connection, which I'm sure I've used in the past.
The Thermostat I will probably get should look something like this:
I guess what I'm really asking, in the simplest terms, is what connections from the back of the thermostat need to go into what connections on the boiler PCB?
I hope all of that makes sense. Sorry for the long post, I was trying to get as much detail as possible in. Please let me know if you need any other information.
Thanks very much,
Cheers, James
