After 4 years in my new build I’ve finally found exactly what im looking for!! This is very nicely explained!! I wish it was just like a normal dial that you spin round 🤦🏼♀️
Wanted to leave a comment to say how massively grateful I am for this tutorial!! Carefully navigating my way through barely livable conditions in student lettings, and a very unhelpful landlord - this has saved me and my housemates from a some painfully cold nights!! Much love from some very grateful students in Birmingham x
I have struggled for weeks with the printed instructions for my Danfoss, always concerned about overnight. Your video explained everything in a few minutes. You should volunteer to rewrite the official instructions, in which nowhere can I find any reference to the fact that the off setting provides a minimum temperature below which the room will jot fall. Thanks CJ

Thats great to hear and I am happy that it is so useful for you. Even i have to watch my videos occasionally to remind me as there are so many stats out there lol
Thanks for this. Absolutely perfect! No messing about or endless waffle like so many others. Saved me from melting to death and constantly hearing the boiler turning on and off. Thank you!!
Thank you, just moved into new house and started to feel cold, no user manual with thermostat however you came to the rescue. The feeling has returned to my cold feet. Cheers
Oh fantastic! Moved into a house using this thermostat and the manual doesn't explain at all what each setting actually DOES. I was confused about the temperatures on the built-in cycles so thankyou.
Thank you so much, we had assumed the small number was the figure we wanted the temperature to never drop below! Glad I watched this to see it’s actually the temperature I want!!! No wonder I was cold.
Thank you thank you. Found some online instructions but I didn't find the frost setting instructions clear. Your instructions were so easy and clear to understand.

Thanks for this! Just moved into my new home and have had to play about with the set timings from the previous owner - as a shift worker set times don’t really work for me and prefer to do everything manually. Really quick and easy to follow , I’ve saved for next time I need to use :)
Thank you indeed. In the past I have had to turn the whole system off piecemeal when the warmer weather arrives - your pointing out the frost setting means I can just set that and leave it until autumn.
Thank you so much for posting this. Just loved into a new place and was a little lost as it was turned on by itself at random times. This video was very helpful!

Thank you for this This type is completely new to me and I found the instruction booklet hard to understand. So much clearer now having watched this video 😊
Franticly precise instructions, thanks for this info ! I've been confused as to why my new boiler was making my radiators hot over night, between set times for the heating to be on... turns out it was the off temperature, so you've saved me further confusion and probably a fair amount on my future energy bills ! If only the company that installed my new heating system had taken the time to explain three months ago !
Hi, great video thanks. Can you confirm how I turn the timer off completely? I'd rather use the thermostat manually without it coming on and off at set times. Thanks, Bobby
Hi Bobby, Easiest way is to switch to frost mode. It will then not come on unless the temp drops below 5 degrees which gives you a safety policy, but htis also allows you to run it manually, up and down with the arrows to bring it on and turn it off. Hope this helps Regards Roger@theheatingpro.com Please Like & Subscribe
This video is so easy to follow and can set my timers thank you. My one issue is that the thermostat isnt giving a true temp reading. Its freezing cold yet saying temp is at 18/19 which no way it can be. I have to select my temp at 21 but its to warm for us at that temp.
Hi Kathryn, I have had this recently with one of these stats. It was on one of my New Build sites and was within two years warranty so I changed it out so as not to have a possible return and unhappy customer. It may be worthwhile trying a reset on the stat.

dmc12gsr Hi, with two stats I would imagine they are hard wired stats and not RF stats (wireless version which may need reconnecting). Is the flame symbol coming on when you demand heat, if so I would be looking at the zone valve. The stat when it is calling for heat then sends power to the zone valve which then in turn sends power for the boiler to fire up. Try switching the zone valve to manual, I suspect you may need a new zone valve head. Hope this helps Regards Roger Please like and Subscribe
Superb thank you!! My GF just had a bill for £900 due to the heating being on all day for months, the OFF setting should mean off, like it does in every other system I’ve seen.
My house temperature is 30 !!! I tried to change the temperature but it doesn't work, the target is 5 but the room temperature keep staying between 29-30. And it's September in England. How to make it works ? As I don't see the heating s actually on but the room temperature is too high .
isabel lu Is the flame symbol showing on your stat? If you have no flame symbol and the boiler is firing sounds like a problem elsewhere. Does your system have two zones? Ie two stats one upstairs one downstairs? If so could be either a zone valve is locked open manually or faulty causing your boiler to fire constantly. Come back to me on these and I will try and help you out regards Roger www.cparkinson.com
@@theheatingpro Hi there, we like to put our's on manually. When I put my rads on, the flame on the timer only seems to come at 21.5 to 22. How can I adjust this for a lower temp please?
@@flasheart3817 Hi Tricky, You are most likely already over the temperature you want to set. Press + and - buttons together to get the actual room temperature. If the flame symbol is on it is calling for the boiler and rads to come on. Set the target temp to where you want it and if actual room temp is higher it wont come on and show flame until it falls below this. Hope that helps Regards Roger Please Subscribe for any assistance, always reply to comments left
After years of having the wrong time on my timer. With your help I have finally been able to set it correctly and I will attempt to set my heating tomorrow. Thank you so much. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Thanks a lot !!! Your video has really helped me, I don’t know if I have exactly this one, but it’s really similar to the one I have. My roommates and I have just moved in and weren’t really explained how it worked, but your video really did that !! the programs hours were different to the one you had so we used the exact same ones as yours, with different temperature of course. You were very clear and it has really helped us understand it a little bit. Never take down your video !!

Thanks for the video. We currently have a problem with ours. For no clear reason, the screen now flashes between 10:00 with 00 in the little temperature section, and 03:00 with sr in the little temperature section. No matter what is pressed, even if we hit reset, change the batteries, hold buttons down or whatever it will not move off this flashing screen. As far as we can tell the heating is no longer being controlled by this stat.
FilmsRapidFire Hi, sounds like you have either entered the advanced settings or have a service interval set on it. The best way to try and clear it if it is a change of advanced settings is to perform a full reset. To do this you need to press and hold prog button then the reset. It will clear all event times and any advanced user settings. Hope this helps Regards Roger Please like and Subscribe
theheatingpro.com hi there. Thanks for replying so quickly! I have tried holding Prog and Reset for anywhere between 3 and 10 seconds and nothing seems to change. The screen goes off and then when I release the buttons it goes back to flashing what I said above. I’ve tried holding reset and either or both of the up and down arrows. Holding both plus and minus buttons. Almost every button combo you can think of. The only button combo that seems to do anything is holding both up and down arrows for 5 or so seconds. Then the screen displays dimmed versions all icons at once. Occasionally it will switch to showing the current room temperature along with what looks like a little suitcase icon just left of the top-centre. It’s doing some weird stuff!
Thanks, very useful, just moved into my flat with 2 of these thermostats and I’ve been turning the boiler on and off for heating as the thermostat temps and times were all wrong and I had no instructions, so thanks again.👍👍
Brilliant video! Have been trying to suss out how our heating works since we moved in last year and finally your video completely explains it! Our heating kept coming on randomly throughout the day and night when it wasn't programmed and your video has explained why! thanks

At last a short and simple explanation of the danfoss, one question we are going away for a week next week, would it be ok to set it to frost protection while we are away
100% yes. thats exactly what its for, just gives you peace of mind in case the temps plummet. Hope the temps dont plummet where you are going and you have a great break
So glad I found this video as instruction booklet bit misleading, however, thankfully with your easy to follow instructions I finally understand how simple it is to programme correctly. It's just a shame that I have 2 of these thermostats in a very small apartment so it's going to take a few days to tweak the correct temperatures for each zone but will get there in the end. Thank you.
very helpful! I have followed the steps to setup all 4 programs on weekdays and weekends. However, the one outside bathroom is completely not working according to the programs. It keeps stay around 25-28C no matter I set all programs at 6:30am 15C, 7:30 10C, 19:30 20C, 2030 10C,, it just stays around 25-28C. The thermostats connects to HIU. Do you know what is the reason behind? many thanks!
Hi Adrian, Couple of questions to hopefully shed some light on it. Do the upstairs rads ( I am taking it this is where the ouside bathroom stat is) come on when you dont want them to or not turn off at all? Is the other zone (taking it two zone?) working ok, rads come one when stat is calling for heat and turn off when its not? What temp do you have downstairs stat set to? Answer these and it me help me work out what is going on Regards Roger @theheatingpro.com Please Like & Subscribe
@@theheatingpro Hi Roger, thanks for your quick reply! Basically I am in a 2bedroom apartment and thats why we have four separate stats in 2 bathroom, 2 bedrooms. Those inside bedroom are working fine which means it shows the temperature constantly 20C even I set the program or not as I dont need heating at bedroom at all. I only need underfloor heating for one bathroom in the morning and evening during shower. Both bathroom stat are not working according to the program set i mentioned above. I browsed most of the comments from others who left here, I found that if the stat is working / heating, there is a flame icon which i never found it in 4 stats in my place. I tried to set the defrost function to 5C or even lower to "off" but still the heating in bathroom is turning on like 24 x7 :( I could imagine the bills would be insane and how could I control it during summer... appreciate if you could help me.
I’ve just moved house and this is the new system, I didn’t have a clue but have a better idea now. The only thing I’m still wondering is one of the thermostats in the upstairs room keeps beeping now and again, no idea why or how to stop it
Hi Kyle, Sounds like it may have a service interval set up. Is it rented accommodation as this would be really the only time an installer would set it up. If so you would need to contact the landlord Hope this helps Regards Roger @theheatingpro.com Please Like & Subscribe

I have 2 Danfoss tp4000 hardwired not wireless units controlling my Ideal Logic 35 boiler. All units are 4 years old, Barratts new build from 2016. In the last 24 hrs I have noticed that manual adjustment of the downstairs thermostat doesn't fire the boiler- regardless of maxing out the temp. The thermostat 'clicks' as it always has done at the required temp, and when manual adjustments are inputted above the current room temperature, but the boiler doesn't react at all... It remains on standby. The display shows the 'flame' symbol but a few seconds later the boiler doesn't fire as it always used to. The upstairs unit responds normally when putting the temp up. This seemingly delivers heat to the upstairs and downstairs radiators. Hot water demand is unaffected and reliable. I initially thought this was a boiler prob but have a feeling it's the tp4000- I gather this is no longer available. Can anyone out there help me? Tried resetting the unit, replacing batteries etc but no change in the communication between the thermostat and boiler.. help!
NNICKKK Hi, I would think most likely is neither boiler or roomstat but your zone valve for the downstairs zone has seized or failed. Do you know where they are located and how to override it to manual? Come back to me if not Regards Roger Please like and Subscribe
Wow. Thanks for that. So clear and really helped! Question though... I have a Danfoss TP5001 + RF and the batteries needed changing. I have replaced them but the unit keeps flashing 10:00 and even if I press the +- and ^v buttons, it doesn't change. I have also tried the reset. If I press ^v the screen displays every single character...
Hi Angeloudaki, After changing the battery you have to get the stat and the receiver to communicate again. First step is to press the reset on the stat. Then press V and + buttons for 3 seconds, this will make the stat send a signal for 3 minutes. Go to the receiver at the boiler and press PROG and CH1 together for 3 seconds until the green light flashes once. Then head back to your stat and press either V or ∆ (up arrow) and it will put the stat back in normal operation. Hope this helps Regards Roger @theheatingpro.com Please Like and subscribe
@@theheatingpro thanks. I tried all that, but it continuously flashed. I just took the batteries out and left it overnight. When I put them back in, it went back to normal and I didn't lose any of the programming ;) the batteries had leaked and I needed to clean the pins too. I took the unit off the wall cautiously! But thank you so much for your response! Apologies for my tardy response.
Thank you for the instructions. I reduced the temperature on my thermostat earlier in the year to 8 degrees. Unfortunately I can’t put the temperature up any more. Do you have any idea what I have done and how I can rectify it? Thank you, look forward to hearing from you. It’s getting a bit chilly without the heating 🥶
Hi again! Got a couple of Qs... 1. If you've got it on for 2hrs to reach 18° and in that time it reaches that temp should the heating go off? 2. You mentioned frost setting if you're away, does the house not need to be more than 5° to avoid damp etc.? 3. My thermostat is in the hallway, the nearest radiator is a few steps away in the dining room or 10 steps away by the back door. Every single radiator in the house has a TRV, am I right in thinking this messes with the thermostat? Thanks so much!
Hi Beb4, 1. Yes once 19 degrees is achieved stat will switch off boiler , when stat drops to 17 it bring boiler back on so you average the 18 degrees temp you set within the 2 hr period once it has done your initial heat up. 2. Frost stat setting is to guard against frost bursts to your pipes and boiler rather than damp issues. An internal temp of 5 degrees usually means that the external temp is below freezing. With the flue allowing that cold air to pass into the boiler it may freeze the pipework and leave untold damage to the boiler and in turn the pipes in your house. It is a safety measure to set it to frost in times where is it possible to get those freezing temps. 3. Your stat acts as the max temp you wish to achieve in the house and governs this. The trvs on each rad allows you to set individual temps in each room, so cooler than others if you choose. Hope this helps Regards Roger @theheatingpro.com Please Like and Subscribe
Hi great video thanks so much. I was wondering if you knew how to change it if the control panel is saying it’s Sunday but it’s Tuesday? Thanks in advance
Hi Georgina, Take a look through my videos there is one for setting up the time and date, this will sort it out for you Regards Roger @theheatingpro Please Like & Subscribe
Hi, when I got to Saturday and Sunday it gave me programme 1 to set start time in the morning and 2 to set morning end time but when I pressed prog again, although it said 3, it wouldn't let me put in a 2nd start time. Underneath, all the days Monday to Friday were flashing. I've therefore had to have heating on all day Saturday and Sunday
ken abnett Hi ken, yes just simply press up arrow to desired temp. This will then stay on until next prog event or if you press down arrow to take temp below actual room temp Regards Roger
Great video, thanks for posting. I've got a couple of these in my new house and I can't for the life of me get it to work. I can't even get it to allow me to adjust the date/time. The only option I have is to increase or decrease the temperature. No matter what I try, what I search for and what order I press the buttons, nowt works.
p4cks Hi, take out The batteries and leave for a couple of mins. Subscribe and look up my video on setting time. Hopefully then you can come back to this video and set everything up regards Roger
thanks for response regarding frost control, my radiators are very hot at 3am and I want to prevent this happening. I tried switching off the frost control, however, when I return to nomal screen the frost control resets at 5 degrees. Can I switch it off permanately as 5 deegrees is fat too high
Robert Mitchell It is more likely that your off temps are too high Robert, it is very rare the internal temp will fall to 5 degrees. The off times are a set back temp which says until the next on time do not let the house fall below this temperature. Commonly these are set too high which keeps your heating on overnight and not to do with your frost setting
CParkinsonBuryLtd Thanks so much, altered the end degree setting and for the first time since we moved in a month ago the radiators remained off overnight. I tried to get an answer by emailing Danfoss direct, however, they have failed to respond to my first and second email.
Thanks roger..excellent video. Ive dun all you said & thpught i sorted it but 1 in bedroom (no dial on) stays roasting all night. Others with dials on dont come on at all! Im confused. Only just moved in. Ive got 1 box upstairs/1 downstairs..do they operate different areas? Ive even set both to same settings. Cant make sense. Help!
An excellent video, covers off everything clearly and without waffle! Are you able to advise how we can put it into summer mode/ turn off now that summer has decided to appear! Thanks
Hi Tom, Simply press the up and down arrow together and it will go into frost mode. This means the heating will not come on unless it falls below 5 degrees. Made really for colder times and as a frost prevention when you are away from the property at times when a cold spell may be possible but also the easiest way of turning the stat off in the summer. To go back to normal auto setting just push those up and down arrows again. No need to alter all your settings and wont come on until you set back to normal auto mode. Hope this helps.

awesome video very clear and really helpful thanks!
Hi Ryan Tablet,

Great video!
I have two in my house, one has stopped linking to the boiller/central heating. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!!
Kind regards
dmc12gsr Hi, with two stats I would imagine they are hard wired stats and not RF stats (wireless version which may need reconnecting). Is the flame symbol coming on when you demand heat, if so I would be looking at the zone valve. The stat when it is calling for heat then sends power to the zone valve which then in turn sends power for the boiler to fire up. Try switching the zone valve to manual, I suspect you may need a new zone valve head.
Hope this helps

Superb thank you!! My GF just had a bill for £900 due to the heating being on all day for months, the OFF setting should mean off, like it does in every other system I’ve seen.
My house temperature is 30 !!! I tried to change the temperature but it doesn't work, the target is 5 but the room temperature keep staying between 29-30. And it's September in England. How to make it works ? As I don't see the heating s actually on but the room temperature is too high .
isabel lu Is the flame symbol showing on your stat? If you have no flame symbol and the boiler is firing sounds like a problem elsewhere. Does your system have two zones? Ie two stats one upstairs one downstairs? If so could be either a zone valve is locked open manually or faulty causing your boiler to fire constantly. Come back to me on these and I will try and help you out regards Roger www.cparkinson.com
@@theheatingpro Hi there, we like to put our's on manually. When I put my rads on, the flame on the timer only seems to come at 21.5 to 22. How can I adjust this for a lower temp please?
@@flasheart3817 Hi Tricky, You are most likely already over the temperature you want to set. Press + and - buttons together to get the actual room temperature. If the flame symbol is on it is calling for the boiler and rads to come on. Set the target temp to where you want it and if actual room temp is higher it wont come on and show flame until it falls below this.
Hope that helps

Thanks a lot !!! Your video has really helped me, I don’t know if I have exactly this one, but it’s really similar to the one I have. My roommates and I have just moved in and weren’t really explained how it worked, but your video really did that !! the programs hours were different to the one you had so we used the exact same ones as yours, with different temperature of course. You were very clear and it has really helped us understand it a little bit. Never take down your video !!

Thanks for the video. We currently have a problem with ours. For no clear reason, the screen now flashes between 10:00 with 00 in the little temperature section, and 03:00 with sr in the little temperature section.
No matter what is pressed, even if we hit reset, change the batteries, hold buttons down or whatever it will not move off this flashing screen. As far as we can tell the heating is no longer being controlled by this stat.
FilmsRapidFire Hi, sounds like you have either entered the advanced settings or have a service interval set on it. The best way to try and clear it if it is a change of advanced settings is to perform a full reset. To do this you need to press and hold prog button then the reset. It will clear all event times and any advanced user settings.
Hope this helps

theheatingpro.com hi there. Thanks for replying so quickly! I have tried holding Prog and Reset for anywhere between 3 and 10 seconds and nothing seems to change. The screen goes off and then when I release the buttons it goes back to flashing what I said above.
I’ve tried holding reset and either or both of the up and down arrows. Holding both plus and minus buttons. Almost every button combo you can think of. The only button combo that seems to do anything is holding both up and down arrows for 5 or so seconds. Then the screen displays dimmed versions all icons at once. Occasionally it will switch to showing the current room temperature along with what looks like a little suitcase icon just left of the top-centre. It’s doing some weird stuff!
Thanks, very useful, just moved into my flat with 2 of these thermostats and I’ve been turning the boiler on and off for heating as the thermostat temps and times were all wrong and I had no instructions, so thanks again.👍👍
Brilliant video! Have been trying to suss out how our heating works since we moved in last year and finally your video completely explains it! Our heating kept coming on randomly throughout the day and night when it wasn't programmed and your video has explained why! thanks

At last a short and simple explanation of the danfoss, one question we are going away for a week next week, would it be ok to set it to frost protection while we are away
100% yes. thats exactly what its for, just gives you peace of mind in case the temps plummet. Hope the temps dont plummet where you are going and you have a great break
Thanks very much fella. Clear and concise, I'm not used to gfch and digital thermostats so this was REALLY helpful.
Very good explanation, short and clear, Thank you 👍
Glad it was helpful!
So glad I found this video as instruction booklet bit misleading, however, thankfully with your easy to follow instructions I finally understand how simple it is to programme correctly. It's just a shame that I have 2 of these thermostats in a very small apartment so it's going to take a few days to tweak the correct temperatures for each zone but will get there in the end. Thank you.
Much appreciated Roger
this helped out alot very easy to understand and even though my model is slightly different it had the same type of programming so easy to use.
very helpful! I have followed the steps to setup all 4 programs on weekdays and weekends. However, the one outside bathroom is completely not working according to the programs. It keeps stay around 25-28C no matter I set all programs at 6:30am 15C, 7:30 10C, 19:30 20C, 2030 10C,, it just stays around 25-28C. The thermostats connects to HIU. Do you know what is the reason behind? many thanks!
Hi Adrian,
Couple of questions to hopefully shed some light on it.
Do the upstairs rads ( I am taking it this is where the ouside bathroom stat is) come on when you dont want them to or not turn off at all?
Is the other zone (taking it two zone?) working ok, rads come one when stat is calling for heat and turn off when its not?
What temp do you have downstairs stat set to?
Answer these and it me help me work out what is going on

@@theheatingpro Hi Roger, thanks for your quick reply! Basically I am in a 2bedroom apartment and thats why we have four separate stats in 2 bathroom, 2 bedrooms. Those inside bedroom are working fine which means it shows the temperature constantly 20C even I set the program or not as I dont need heating at bedroom at all. I only need underfloor heating for one bathroom in the morning and evening during shower. Both bathroom stat are not working according to the program set i mentioned above. I browsed most of the comments from others who left here, I found that if the stat is working / heating, there is a flame icon which i never found it in 4 stats in my place. I tried to set the defrost function to 5C or even lower to "off" but still the heating in bathroom is turning on like 24 x7 :( I could imagine the bills would be insane and how could I control it during summer... appreciate if you could help me.
Top man, simple and easy video. Great work 👍🏼
Thanks Top viewer with Top comment. means a lot thanks
This is brilliant and really well explained thank you
Thanks so kind of you to say
I’ve just moved house and this is the new system, I didn’t have a clue but have a better idea now. The only thing I’m still wondering is one of the thermostats in the upstairs room keeps beeping now and again, no idea why or how to stop it
Hi Kyle,
Sounds like it may have a service interval set up. Is it rented accommodation as this would be really the only time an installer would set it up. If so you would need to contact the landlord
Hope this helps

Rady Gart Your welcome Sir
I have 2 Danfoss tp4000 hardwired not wireless units controlling my Ideal Logic 35 boiler. All units are 4 years old, Barratts new build from 2016. In the last 24 hrs I have noticed that manual adjustment of the downstairs thermostat doesn't fire the boiler- regardless of maxing out the temp. The thermostat 'clicks' as it always has done at the required temp, and when manual adjustments are inputted above the current room temperature, but the boiler doesn't react at all... It remains on standby. The display shows the 'flame' symbol but a few seconds later the boiler doesn't fire as it always used to. The upstairs unit responds normally when putting the temp up. This seemingly delivers heat to the upstairs and downstairs radiators. Hot water demand is unaffected and reliable. I initially thought this was a boiler prob but have a feeling it's the tp4000- I gather this is no longer available. Can anyone out there help me? Tried resetting the unit, replacing batteries etc but no change in the communication between the thermostat and boiler.. help!
NNICKKK Hi, I would think most likely is neither boiler or roomstat but your zone valve for the downstairs zone has seized or failed. Do you know where they are located and how to override it to manual? Come back to me if not

Wow. Thanks for that. So clear and really helped! Question though... I have a Danfoss TP5001 + RF and the batteries needed changing. I have replaced them but the unit keeps flashing 10:00 and even if I press the +- and ^v buttons, it doesn't change. I have also tried the reset. If I press ^v the screen displays every single character...
Hi Angeloudaki,
After changing the battery you have to get the stat and the receiver to communicate again.
First step is to press the reset on the stat. Then press V and + buttons for 3 seconds, this will make the stat send a signal for 3 minutes. Go to the receiver at the boiler and press PROG and CH1 together for 3 seconds until the green light flashes once. Then head back to your stat and press either V or ∆ (up arrow) and it will put the stat back in normal operation.
Hope this helps

@@theheatingpro thanks. I tried all that, but it continuously flashed. I just took the batteries out and left it overnight. When I put them back in, it went back to normal and I didn't lose any of the programming ;) the batteries had leaked and I needed to clean the pins too. I took the unit off the wall cautiously! But thank you so much for your response! Apologies for my tardy response.
Thank you for the instructions. I reduced the temperature on my thermostat earlier in the year to 8 degrees. Unfortunately I can’t put the temperature up any more. Do you have any idea what I have done and how I can rectify it? Thank you, look forward to hearing from you. It’s getting a bit chilly without the heating 🥶
Hello, thank you so much for your video. What happens when we want the heating off (summer time)
Thank you for the clear explanation!👍🏻

Hi again! Got a couple of Qs...
1. If you've got it on for 2hrs to reach 18° and in that time it reaches that temp should the heating go off?
2. You mentioned frost setting if you're away, does the house not need to be more than 5° to avoid damp etc.?
3. My thermostat is in the hallway, the nearest radiator is a few steps away in the dining room or 10 steps away by the back door. Every single radiator in the house has a TRV, am I right in thinking this messes with the thermostat?
Thanks so much!
Hi Beb4,
1. Yes once 19 degrees is achieved stat will switch off boiler , when stat drops to 17 it bring boiler back on so you average the 18 degrees temp you set within the 2 hr period once it has done your initial heat up.
2. Frost stat setting is to guard against frost bursts to your pipes and boiler rather than damp issues. An internal temp of 5 degrees usually means that the external temp is below freezing. With the flue allowing that cold air to pass into the boiler it may freeze the pipework and leave untold damage to the boiler and in turn the pipes in your house. It is a safety measure to set it to frost in times where is it possible to get those freezing temps.
3. Your stat acts as the max temp you wish to achieve in the house and governs this. The trvs on each rad allows you to set individual temps in each room, so cooler than others if you choose.
Hope this helps
Regards
Roger

Hi, when I got to Saturday and Sunday it gave me programme 1 to set start time in the morning and 2 to set morning end time but when I pressed prog again, although it said 3, it wouldn't let me put in a 2nd start time. Underneath, all the days Monday to Friday were flashing. I've therefore had to have heating on all day Saturday and Sunday

ken abnett Hi ken, yes just simply press up arrow to desired temp. This will then stay on until next prog event or if you press down arrow to take temp below actual room temp Regards Roger
CParkinsonBuryLtd thank you
Great video, thanks for posting. I've got a couple of these in my new house and I can't for the life of me get it to work. I can't even get it to allow me to adjust the date/time. The only option I have is to increase or decrease the temperature. No matter what I try, what I search for and what order I press the buttons, nowt works.
p4cks Hi, take out The batteries and leave for a couple of mins. Subscribe and look up my video on setting time. Hopefully then you can come back to this video and set everything up regards

Yes I did, its working OK now, thanks 😊
thanks for response regarding frost control, my radiators are very hot at 3am and I want to prevent this happening. I tried switching off the frost control, however, when I return to nomal screen the frost control resets at 5 degrees. Can I switch it off permanately as 5 deegrees is fat too high
Robert Mitchell It is more likely that your off temps are too high Robert, it is very rare the internal temp will fall to 5 degrees. The off times are a set back temp which says until the next on time do not let the house fall below this temperature. Commonly these are set too high which keeps your heating on overnight and not to do with your frost setting
CParkinsonBuryLtd Thanks so much, altered the end degree setting and for the first time since we moved in a month ago the radiators remained off overnight. I tried to get an answer by emailing Danfoss direct, however, they have failed to respond to my first and second email.
Robert Mitchell So glad you got it sorted.

Thanks roger..excellent video. Ive dun all you said & thpught i sorted it but 1 in bedroom (no dial on) stays roasting all night. Others with dials on dont come on at all! Im confused. Only just moved in. Ive got 1 box upstairs/1 downstairs..do they operate different areas? Ive even set both to same settings. Cant make sense. Help!
An excellent video, covers off everything clearly and without waffle! Are you able to advise how we can put it into summer mode/ turn off now that summer has decided to appear! Thanks
Hi Tom,
Simply press the up and down arrow together and it will go into frost mode. This means the heating will not come on unless it falls below 5 degrees. Made really for colder times and as a frost prevention when you are away from the property at times when a cold spell may be possible but also the easiest way of turning the stat off in the summer. To go back to normal auto setting just push those up and down arrows again. No need to alter all your settings and wont come on until you set back to normal auto mode.
Hope this helps.

Flame means your stat is calling for heat from your boiler. Little house means you are in room temp setting on the display.
