Important note RF products: Ensure that there are no large metal objects, such as boiler cases or other large appliances, in line of sight between the transmitter and receiver as these will prevent communication between thermostat and receiver.

☐ First, remove the wallplate from the back of the unit.

From the top left hand corner of the wallplate, there must be clearances of at least 140mm to the right, 15mm to the left, 30mm above and 100mm below in order to mount the plug-in module.

1·5m

☐ Prior to mounting the unit should be set in either ON/OFF or chrono-proportional control mode (see below).

ON/OFF CHRONO

ON/OFF - boilers switches ON when below set temperature and OFF when above.

Chrono-Proportional - energy saving feature which fi res the boiler at regular intervals to maintain a set temperature, achieving a constant ambient environment for the user.

Some existing thermostats will have a Neutral wire and/or Earth wire connected. These are not required by the RT51/52 and must NOT be connected to any RT51/52 terminals. Instead they should be made electrically safe and coiled in the recess at the back of the RT51/52.

What is a programmable room 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.

Your room thermostat

RT51

The RT51 is a simple to use room thermostat which allows you to programme a Day and a Night temperature, and to switch between the two settings simply by pressing 2 buttons.

RT52

The RT52 has the same functionality as the RT51 with the added benefit of a built-in timer, which will return the thermostat to Day temperature at a time chosen by you.

Wireless RF versions

Both models are available in wireless versions - RT51-RF and RT52-RF - which offer exactly the same functions as the hard-wired models.

Each thermostat communicates with an RX receiver, which can be located up to 30m away.
