    help to wire combi boiler for underfloor heating and house radiators

    I'm a bit muddled after seeing the common thermostat connections, is it all connected in a temporary configuration because it doesn't look right to me. Apologies in advance if I'm wrong!! I've also noticed it says wireless on the control centre, any reason for it?

    help to wire combi boiler for underfloor heating and house radiators

    I'd use the wiring centre regardless TBH, with it giving you the terminals to do the necessary things needed without messing about. I'm presuming that the actuator is 230V then with them saying you can just use a JB? I've never dealt with mains voltage actuators although I guess they all work...

    help to wire combi boiler for underfloor heating and house radiators

    Right, we are a step nearer the conclusion! Does the manifold come with a connection unit? The actuators for the underfloor loops are usually low voltage so are usually connected via a controller which usually has a row of terminals for room stats, a row for corresponding actuators and two sets...

    Why use 12v downlights

    I agree with the post about that second picture, you can see the tight cone that the LED is giving but there's some supplementary light there that isn't on the first one.

    Heating system wiring

    Backfeeds on central heating systems are some of the most comical things I've ever seen, so well played in addressing it to begin with and in the correct manner! Why not put a couple of pictures up? Is there a size restriction for any enclosure? Space is sometimes at a premium in plant rooms...

    basic commercial kitchen fan / ventilation, advice on how to improve please

    Agree with above, I've seen it when a fan isn't working efficiently due to it creating a negative pressure, due to nomairmbeing drawn into a room to replace it.

    Absence detection with retractive switch

    Won't this setup need some sort of timer, unless the PIR has the facility built in? What model of PIR are you using?

    Any experience with Dimplex pilot wire? (isolation)

    I thought the design of the Rointe made the distribution of the heat from it better than a bog standard convector? May be splitting hairs though.

    Is it the running costs or install costs that are tight? Rointe do a decent heater

    GU10 LED flicker

    Stroboscopic effect? Try them on the same phase? What else is connected on the circuits, something that could interfere maybe? Never had that problem myself, but these are the things I'd investigate first!

    Underfloor heating via an s plan system

    I was thinking along the lines that if there is a pump for existing loops for the radiators, theirswitch wires would need to be separated through a relay or two depending on the setup of the system as they could just be trying to pump against a closed zone valve.
