What is a room thermostat?

homexperttm by Honeywell THR840DUK Digital Thermostat

...an explanation for householders

A room thermostat simply switches the heating system on and off as necessary. It works by sensing the air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set temperature has been reached. Turning a room thermostat to a higher setting will not make the room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and radiators.

Neither does the setting affect how quickly the room cools down. Turning a room thermostat to a lower setting will result in the room being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy.

The heating system will not work if a time switch or programmer has switched it off.

The way to set and use your room thermostat is to ﬁnd the lowest temperature setting that you are comfortable with, and then leave it alone to do its job. The best way to do this is to set the room thermostat to a low temperature – say 18°C – and then turn it up by one degree each day until you are comfortable with the temperature. You won’t have to adjust the thermostat further. Any adjustment above this setting will waste energy and cost you more money.

If your heating system is a boiler with radiators, there will usually be only one room thermostat to control the whole house. But you can have different temperatures in individual rooms by installing thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) on individual radiators. If you don’t have TRVs, you should choose a temperature that is reasonable for the whole house. If you do have TRVs, you can choose a slightly higher setting to make sure that even the coldest room is comfortable, then prevent any overheating in other rooms by adjusting the TRVs.

Room thermostats need a free ﬂow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric ﬁres, televisions, wall or table lamps may prevent the thermostat from working properly.

About your new thermostat

The THR840DUK is an easy-to-use thermostat designed to maintain a comfortable environment when you are at home and reduce energy costs when you are away. One touch of the ECO button overrides the normal temperature to maintain a lower, energy-saving level for a speciﬁed period of time (see page 11).

QUICK START GUIDE

Your new thermostat is pre-programmed and ready to go. Just check the steps below and change settings if needed:

1 Install and set up thermostat

2 Select heating (default) or cooling mode ..................................................................................... See page 9

3 Set desired indoor temperature ................................................................................................ See page 10

Operation

homexperttm by Honeywell THR840DUK Digital Thermostat

On/off switch and frost protection

Press the ON/OFF button as shown at left to turn the thermostat on or off. When off, the thermostat will never activate the cooling system, and will activate heating only if necessary to maintain a minimum indoor temperature of 5º C (frost protection).

You can change the frost protection temperature to any level between 5º and 16º C, or turn this feature off so the heating system is never activated when the thermostat is off (see page 22).

Press and hold to turn on or off

The thermostat is pre-set to control only your heating system. If installed and set up correctly, it can also be used to control your cooling system.

To switch between heating and cooling, press and hold the p and q buttons together until the screen changes.

When idle, the thermostat displays the current room temperature. You can press the p or q buttons at any time to see the “target” temperature the thermostat is trying to maintain.

One button press will display the target temperature, ﬂashing. To change it, press either button repeatedly, until the display shows the temperature you want. After a few seconds the display will stop ﬂashing and change to show the current room temperature.

NOTE: You can use the ECO mode to temporarily override the target temperature for a speciﬁed period of time (see page 11).

The ECO mode overrides thermostat settings to maintain a different temperature for 1 to 24 hours. This can be useful to reduce heating or cooling costs when you are away from home.

1 Press the green ECO button to display timer.

2 Press the p or q buttons to set timer (1-24 hours).

While in ECO mode, the screen will alternately display remaining time and current room temperature. After the timer expires, the thermostat will resume normal operation. Options:

• Pressthep or q buttons to raise or lower the temporary ECO temperature if needed.

• PresstheECO button again to cancel ECO mode and resume normal operation.

NOTE: The default ECO temperature is pre-set to 18º C. To raise or lower the default temperature, see page 22.

Cr Cycles per hour: Check proper setting for your

system (see page 23).

Ot Proportional band width: If your heating system

is oversized for your home, you can compensate by increasing the width of the control proportional band up to 3°C.

tO Temperature offset: In some cases, the

thermostat must be installed in a location that does not accurately control temperature for optimum comfort in other rooms. You can set the thermostat to compensate for this by adjusting the offset.

is pressed, the thermostat will not allow a target temperature above the maximum you set.

LL Minimum temperature: When the q button is

pressed, the thermostat will not allow a target temperature lower than the minimum you set.

ES ECO default temperature: This is the default

target temperature when the thermostat is in ECO mode (see page 11).
