Green Premium is the Schneider Electric eco-mark that brings more value to our customers and more growth to our company. Seal the new valve tail piece with 4-6 layers of PTFE tape to prevent leakage. Screw the new valve onto the tail piece on the radiator and the copper pipe. In hard water areas it is more important than ever that TRVs are maintained to stop plastic degrading and valves failing. Once you have drained down the system, you can start the installation. Remove the existing TRV by unscrewing the nuts on the 15mm copper pipe and the radiator tail piece. For example, if a householder understands when their heating is due to come on and when it is scheduled to be off, as well as how to alter the time settings, then they should be able to manage their system timings without your assistance.

The thermostat can be mounted to the stand or to the wall clip in a location where it will be able to control the room temperature. When wall mounting, the thermostat should be placed around 1.2m (4ft) off the ground and away from windows and radiators. It can sometimes be necessary to replace the TRV head to provide improved control or to simply enhance the radiator appearance and this can be done without changing the entire valve body. Reset the Receiver by pressing the button for about 15 seconds until you see a red light followed by flashing orange/green which shows it is in pairing mode. There may be other Digistats powered up and within range and this will slow down the pairing process. If it is possible to depower the other Digistat please do this while you are pairing, or if not then press “I have done these steps” and wait for the RETRY button to appear. On the second attempt the pop-up should appear instantly.The miGenie gateway is designed to be placed on a flat surface and should be located next to the customer’s internet router. If you find yourself working on a heating system that is exposed to the elements and is therefore likely to feel the full force of any cold weather, protecting the pipes against freezing can stop a system breakdown. Finally, if the additional requirement for heat is likely to be regular, they can re-programme their control to include a new time period. It is important to remember how TRVs work. Rather than sensing the temperature of the radiator, a TRV works by sensing the temperature of air around it and calling for heat where necessary.

Wireless programmable room thermostats are easy to install, and most installers only need help with commissioning the system. First, remove the batteries from the transmitter unit and allow the screen to go blank. It’s also worth making sure that the householder understands that altering the temperature on a room thermostat will only be effective if a programmer has set the heating to be on. If the homeowner wants the heating on when the programmer has it set to be off, they need to understand they have three options: The miGenie thermostat and miGenie gateway are pre-bound to the miGenie controller so they just need to be positioned in the best place for wireless communication. To help with this, there is a built-in signal strength indicator.

Now that the TRVs have been installed, the next step is to balance the system using the TRV. Balancing is important, as it means that all rooms heat up evenly at the same time. Balancing this way using the TRVs prevents the need for re-balancing the system if a radiator is removed. The acclimatisation time for one of these units is approximately 4 degrees an hour or 1 degree every 15 minutes, meaning it could take several hours to reach the required temperature for the first time. Finding a compatible replacement programmer Thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) are an important part of the central heating system, as they allow householders to control the temperature of each individual room through the radiator. On the controller, navigate to ‘signal strength’ through the settings on the screen. On the thermostat, press and hold the + and – buttons for five seconds, then navigate to signal strength

Advise householders that concealing a TRV with furniture or behind a curtain will affect the performance of their system, making it less reliable as the TRV cannot accurately sense the temperature of the room. Advising customers on room thermostat settings The Green Premium eco-mark stands for complete, transparent, and easily available information about products When taking a digital thermostat from a cold van and installing it in a warm home, you should be aware that it won’t respond instantaneously.

However this auto-pairing process only lasts 2 minutes (to avoid issues of pairing with the wrong Digistat). If you find that the 2-minute auto-pairing period has expired, please follow the following process: Depending on the fuel type you select during installation will affect how Digistat works with your boiler/heat source - so ensure to select the correct type during installation. Does Digistat work with combi-boilers and conventional boilers? When a boost is selected, a timer symbol appears in the bottom right of the display and remains until the next event. In either mode the radiator or tap icon will be displayed. How do I change from Automatic to Manual mode? This groups weekdays and the weekend separately, so you can set a schedule for your weekdays and a separate schedule for the weekend.
