Special Features
Delayed Start
Thermostats with the Delayed Start function have been shown to reduce heating costs by as much as 10%. This feature delays the start-up of the heating, depending on how warm the room temperature is at the time when the heating is due to come on.
The heating start can be delayed for up to 45 minutes if the room is already relatively warm, when the weather is milder for example. This often reduces how long the heating is on per day, with no comfort loss, saving you energy and money! The Delayed Start feature can be fully automated and needs no extra programming.
Optimum Start
The Optimum Start function adjusts the starting time for the heating according to the temperature measured within the room / building. Instead of setting an arbitrary time for the heating to come on, you programme the time that the room / building should be at the desired temperature. Up to 10% of energy costs can be saved, as the warm up time is automatically reduced according to the ambient temperature. Many users set their heating to start a couple of hours before use to warm up the room / building. With the Optimum Start function you don’t need to do this. The actual start time is automatically delayed or advanced to ensure your room / building reaches the set temperature by the programmed time. The Optimum function is designed to work on rooms / buildings that do not have a through put of people and doors or windows being opened regularly before the heating period.
Optimum Stop
Optimum Stop saves energy by switching the heaters off a little earlier than the programmed OFF time. If the room / building is up to temperature. We only recommend trying this option if you are using radiant panel or cassette heaters (Models – ESP2 or RP) you should not notice the effect on the temperature but you should see a slight difference in your energy bill.The following options are available BUT are only of use if using the thermostat with a gas boiler.
Chrono proportional Control (TPI)
Only if thermostat is used with a gas boiler
Chrono proportional control is a load compensator as it ensures that the boiler ‘ON’ time is reduced to a minimum and matches the boiler heat output with the heat loss. This reduces the net temperature of the return water to the boiler. This is due to the TPI (Time Proportional and Integral) advanced energy saving feature. Rather than just a simple ON/OFF control, like other domestic room thermostats, room thermostats with TPI increase boiler efficiency by firing the boiler at regular intervals, adjusting firing duration with demand, to maintain set room temperatures.
Landlord Service
Only if thermostat is used with a gas boiler. DON’T USE ON ELECTRIC SYSTEMS. The optional Landlord Service safety feature offers protection for tenants and landlords against illegal boiler negligence (in compliance with Gas Safety Regulation 36). 30 days before the boiler is due to be serviced, the LCD will display SER. If the annual maintenance is not carried out before the 30 days, the system will only run for a pre-determined number of minutes per hour before turning off.
