Could someone please take a look at my Boiler/Hive set up and let me know what I need to do to install: 1 x HIVE single channel Receiver I have; 1 x heating valve installed and ready to go (black wire in red box), which will feed my garage conversion consisting of 3 radiators (heating only...

Hi all, I'm new to this so I will get to the point and try to be clear as possible. I'm currently trying to install a Nest Thermostat E with Heat Link to a Baxi Combo Duotec 28. There is currently a Horstmann Hrt4-zw attached with the wiring below for the wireless receiver. Now how do I...

Good Morning All, Im wondering if anyone may be able to help or advise please. I have an issue I believe is tied to a leak coming from the combi boiler (Biasi Riva Plus HE M296 28SMC, 2015 Model): Last night the RCD on my home electrical system consumer unit tripped, after much hunting...

I've bought my HIVE in the black Friday sale last year and have been waiting for the local plumber to install but he keeps fobbing me off.... so can anyone advise me on how to wire this up.... I've been through all the usual tutorials and can't make sense of them because they're all different...

Hi all, first post here! Please move if it's in the wrong section. I'm quite into my DIY and have been upgrading parts of the house, I bought a Nest thermostat last week and just wanted to check everything checks out, if anyone could give any advice on the below it would be greatly...

Hi all. Hoping for some advice here on installing two Hive receivers to my Logic 35 Combi boiler. I have explored the existing Hive threads but my setup seems a little bit more involved. I currently have two zones in a new build house, one downstairs and the other upstairs. Here is where I...

Dear all, Just moved to new home.... I have a Baxi combi boiler; fairly new and a "Center" 7 day programmable Room stat. This is located in the dining room https://www.wolseley.co.uk/product/center-7-day-programmable-room-thermostat-230-v/ also On each of the radiators we have a "Myson TRV 2...

We had an extension to the house a few years ago and installed water central heating in the new concrete floor. This heats less that half of the floor space of the open plan kitchen / family room. The rest of the floor is the original house floor (un-insulated concrete slab). The builders broke...

I’m looking at this UFH solution for an upcoming project on suspended timber floors. https://www.omnie.co.uk/torfloor/ It’s the only solution I’ve found which gives a low floor build up and is designed to replace the structural floor. It comprises a routed 22mm chipboard sheet with a foil...

we've got quite an old central heating system (regular boiler) with a tank in the loft. i could have sworn the water in this tank used to be hot, but i assume i'm mistaken and that it's a cold water tank? anyway, recently the heating has been making lots of creaking noises and the pump it's...

Hi, My ideal Logic+ boiler keeps displaying pump overrun while it is meant to be heating. I've read in other places this is a normal function when the heating has been on and has just stopped. However, for me it keeps appearing during the time the boiler is meant to be on. The radiators...

Just in case anyone has some ideas to point me in the right direction! The system: Vaillant EcoTec 418 system boiler with unvented tank. S-plan (2 zone, CH and HW). Grundfos 3-speed pump (set to 2). Recently added smart valves (Drayton Wiser) to 5 out of 9 rads, so boiler load is reduced (all...

I've recently employed a new firm to service our boiler, which is a Main Combi Eco 25. The boiler has been relatively reliable to us with the only fault so far (after 3 years) being a replacement diverter valve. The boiler itself is 7 years old and we look after it (run it periodically during...

Hi All, recently, when I turn the bath hot tap on, just slightly, a very loud shuddering, like a pneumatic drill, can be heard from the pipes/floor/tap? When I turn the tap on fully, it stops. Is this water hammer? It doesn't happen all the time, just every so often. But it is so loud and...

Hi all, Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question, I am totally helpless. Recently moved into a new flat and today turning the heating on for the first time since the move in date. We have a potterton performer 28, and as far as I can see I've set everything how it should be, but...

Hi all, As the title says, my bathroom radiator makes a ticking noise when hot water is running, however makes no noise at all when the heating is running. I’ve bled it in the hope that would help but no joy. Other than this it works fine, just don’t know what it could be or if I should worry...

Just added some Hive TRV valves to my Hive system the other day, and noticed I could not control them from the Hive website at https://my.hivehome.com/ like I could with the mobile app. Below is what I get: Clicking on a TRV... Hive-TRV-Dashboard by eveares posted 18 Sep 2019 at 10:31 PM...
