Pipe Frost Stats Temp advice please.....

[Steelmasons]

Turn the frost stat setting to 3c.
What location are you??.is the frost stat in the garage or outside?...if outside then relocate to inside.

 

[Chris Dodds]

Frost stat is in garage. Pipe stat is on the return pipe also in the garage, as Is the boiler

 

[Steelmasons]

Reduce frost stat temp as above...

 

[Chris Dodds]

Thanks steelmasons, for your patience and advice. hopefully this will work

 

[Steelmasons]

What is the temperature of the garage in relation to the stat.
Remove the frost stat cover and note at what temperature the frost stat dial 'clicks' and then compare with a thermostat..frost stat may be faulty.

currently at about 7c when clicked. when I came back in house it must have activated the heating (as it should as I turned it to 10c). I have left it at 3c. I have also left the pipe stat at 12c.

will this be ok? does this seem ok?

[Chris Dodds]

sorry Steelmasons, take it that emoji mean I should not overly worry?

 

[Steelmasons]

You could also set frost stat to zero or do away with it altogether...

 

[Chris Dodds]

ok I was just asking advice. I have just moved, have a few problems that need fixing, am a bit skint and all I wanted was some re-assurentce. It is always ok when you know - Hence why I came here

Sorry

 

[Steelmasons]

You were given advice although you failed to take heed of it.......crack on...
Go get yourself some ear defenders...
Wind up...

You may want to check the frost stat setting.

You may want to check the frost stat setting.

.....or calibration!! A fact I was astonished by; analogic thermostats can be calibrated > or < 5C!!
