What is a Room Thermostat?

How does it work?

Why do I have one fitted in my home?

INTRODUCTION

Fitting room thermostats to control room temperatures can

be a very productive exercise. Room thermostats control the

temperature at which your heating system operates, and in

doing so helps save energy by cutting down on wasteful

overheating.

Fitting room thermostats also cuts down on heating costs

because by turning down the setting by just 1°C can cut the

heating fuel bill by up to 10%. Reducing wasteful overheating

also helps the environment by reducing harmful emissions.

HOW A ROOM THERMOSTAT WORKS

The thermostat controls the heating in your home by keeping

it at the temperature you have set. Room thermostats switch

off the heat when the temperature reaches set point, and

switch it on when it falls below. The heating will not come

on if the room temperature is above the room thermostat

set temperature.

Remember that turning the thermostat up will not heat the

room any faster. The higher the thermostat setting the more

gas you will use.

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE

Turn the dial to set the thermostat. A comfortable setting is

usually between 18°C and 22°C.

Note: RET model only

When the red LED light is lit the thermostat is calling for heat.

When the red light is off the thermostat is up to the required

temperature.
