Hi all.
Have come on here for some help and advice. Im not an electrician.
My room stat, working fine last winter, thinks that the room it was located in (hallway) is 23 degrees (thermometer says currently about 16 degrees). Consequently I cannot set the stat to call for heat from the boiler if it drops below 23 degrees.
Boiler was serviced a few weeks ago. Baxi Platinum Combi 33 HE A. Installed as new November 2013.
Room thermostat WAS a basic Drayton analogue dial stat until last week. NOW is a Salus RT200 'electronic' room stat.
I noticed the issue last week, and thinking the old drayton stat was stuck/faulty, I ordered a replacement.
I have wired in the new stat exactly the same as the old one. Live, Neutral, Switched Live, and a parked earth. The 3core+Earth cable has not been touched. The stat is fitted in place of the previous one.
The problem still persists.
The new stat actually has a LED that shows when it calls for heat and this clicks on, but this is still only occurring at about 23 degrees, and like I said the hallway is colder.
The boiler is set to ON, not timed.
The room temp reached approx 14 degrees last night and the stat wasnt clicking in to call for heat at all when I turned the dial higher
Could servicing the boiler have caused an electrical supply issue to the stat? It's odd that it 'works' to a higher temp and calls for heat at 23 degrees. Its also strange that a new stat did not fix the issue.
Any ideas?
