Hi everyone

Question for you heating engineers!

Have been to a Job tonight where the customers central heating has been wired up incorrectly. It is coming on at weird times of the night and is not working correctly.

All of the cables are at the programmer but for some reason there is a cable connected to all 4 terms and live and neutral. I thought it looked strange as I thought terminal 2 was normally left free?

That's not much of a problem. The question is the customers want the stat moving into the hallway by the programmer. It is currently in a lounge area. Is there a way I can install a programmable thermostat to the y plan system? I have got one for my combi system, but don't know if you can use one for the y plan? It would be easier than fitting separate stat if I could.

Thanks in advance

No, a programable stat is only single channel, leave the system programmer in place and fit a standard wireless roomstat.

If you want a programmable thermostat because of the additional features it offers over a standard thermostat, i.e. different temperatures at different times of the day, then you can install one. You would have to set the heating side of the programmer to 24 hours.

The 3-way valve used in the Y-Plan needs a 'heating-off' signal, as well as a 'heating-on'.
