I wanted a thermostat in my bathroom to control an infrared panel heater I fitted. Due to electrical regs I couldn't use mains to the thermostat so this device ticks the safety reg. Hell you could bath with it and it wouldn't electrocute your pecker! But it would bugger up the thermostat

Unit was simple to fit.Instructions were clear. Thermostat turned heating on when turned up and off when turned down.Unfortunately when left at a low temperature,after so long the unit would turn the heating on for a while then off again .This kept the house warm not letting it get anywhere near the low temperature set on the thermostat.It reacted in a similar fashion if set at a high temperature,the boiler would keep stopping and starting not allowing the upper temperature to be reached. Money was refunded on the item so I don`t know if I was just unlucky with this one thermostat unit.

Wiring a room thermostat is a bit of a pain as you have to run a pair of live wires to the location in the room you want the thermostat placed. This one looks completely conventional but it runs on a couple of AA cells and links via radio. You could just screw it to the wall but I bought this because it's mobile. I can give it to a member if the family who often feels cold and she can have full control of the room temperature. I've set the heating to always on and so she can turn the heating off by setting a lower temperature. It just stands on the table next to her bed. Wiring this up was easier than expected. The heating runs off a time clock which sends a heating or hot water signal to the pump and valve. Rather than wire it into the time clock I found the easiest access to the wiring was by the hot water tank where the junction box for the pump and valve are. This is the mains electrical part. There are just two pairs of wires to connect. To power the receiver I just used the 'call' signal for the heating which will be on all the time. The receiver interrupts the heating call signal to the pump and valve. So the main point is to wire it into the junction box at the pump end not the boiler end. Read full review

We have struggled for 3 years, with a 'super, up to date' worlds most complicated thermostat supplied with a new boiler. It has been a nightmare to use : 5 different settings per day; 5 different temperatures per day ! also for 7 different days of the week ! Plus it has several pre set programs in it...so if you've missed out your own setting, it causes it to just turn on at random, day or night ! That's now binned ! This simple Salus ERT20RF is absolutely perfect. Analogue. Just a turn of the dial; on; on a bit more; turn back a bit...simples, this is all you ever need in a thermostat. Plus we didn't have to re-wire it in, as it is wireless!

We struggled for a year with a complicated programable thermostat installed at the same time as a new boiler. Having had enough of heating which seemed to have a mind of its own, we took a chance at this relatively cheap device and are so glad we did! Simple DIY installation and we now have controllable, reliable central heating. Very pleased!!
