There is not much room in those wiring centres to get all the cables in, so the smaller the better. Ok, even better then, as I may have to share the conduit in a couple of walls with cabling for light switches. Thanks very much all! Another job for this coming week then!

Nickfromwales Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 What do you need from each stat? Temp only / temp + time clock etc ? Are you having a central hub to set times etc ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wunda have not offered this as an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickfromwales Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 You dont have to use Wundas stats Find out if theyre 230v signalling or 12 / 24v / other and then you can look at stats you like the look of and mix n match. What your looking for is called a 'programmable room thermostat' btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesgrandepotato Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 We have heatmisers, 7 neos, 1ultra and the hub. Works well, good app. Can’t fault it really! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesgrandepotato Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 You can set each room independently. Or all from the Ultra, or all from the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes set each room individually or from app. You can set a profile to have different times/ temps different rooms or all the same....my fave programme is nicknamed ‘toasty’ LOL. Heatmiser works fine once you get it set up was an absolute bugger to get going initially though.I’m happy with it now Ive worked it out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhome Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I have one of these as it was bought in the days before the app was available. It probably does a similar thing to the app but it is on the wall in the kitchen and I can control all rooms from it.

I went and bought 6243Y 3X1+1 1mm from TLC: https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CA1slash3G.html But it seems overkill to me (bearing I am no electrician) for what is only linking the thermostats to the ufh control board.

Triassic Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) I'm sure the stuff I used in the last house was round in section and each wire was made up of multiple strands of copper wire, thus more flexible. https://www.edwardes.co.uk/en/products/1-0mm-3185y-5-core-white-circular-pvc-flexible-cable-50-metre-coil?utm_medium=google_shopping&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=google_shopping&gclid=Cj0KCQjwrszdBRDWARIsAEEYhrdsVf9p7MVDmx0Loc6ZcYHrXKEMsqvzubrgdkF77AT5UEugnwKVuD0aAmYnEALw_wcB Edited October 2, 2018 by Triassic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Basic stuff is for wiring between the CU and the fused disconnection unit, and then you can use flexible cable, suitably protected in a trunking where practicable, which would be far easier. Also no need to earth sleeve anything as the earth will already be a PVC coated core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
