As above probably a low flow rate is it a combi?

Surely having the boiler interlock (room thermostat & radiator without TRV) in the bathroom is somewhat silly. If room thermostat now placed elsewhere its not the interlock its supposed to be.

There's two

I always leave the bathroom without a trv due to towels and the main one with the stat

I would like to have a bathroom rad that isn’t controlled by a TRV and potentially overheat the room and sympathise wit Kian1810.

There is a not missing. Sorry.

I had the thermostat wired in yesterday but it's not fixed to the wall, I currently have it on my coffee table. My boiler water and rad heat is set to 60 on both, is this ok? I have my thermostat set to 18 most of the day and just turn it off at night.

The TRV in my living room is set to 3, in my other rooms it's off (do I need to put it on the little ice setting?) and obviously in the bathroom, that is always on.

I had to turn off all the pre-set as I would prefer to manually control the heating, maybe in the future I will use the pre-sets.

It's a Danfoss TP5000SI.

It's down to personal setting now have a play and find what's right for you

What is the difference between the radiator heat setting on the boiler and the thermostat, is it the higher it is on the Boiler, the more it will cost in gas?

 

[ShaunCorbs]

the one on the boiler will set how hot the pipes will get normally set to 60-65

the room stat will govern the room temp

It does not feel like 18 degrees in my living room though, think I need to buy a thermometer.

Within 5dc it should be

What is DC?

What is DC?

Degree Centigrade

That's quite the gap isn't it?

Yes and no depending on what stat you have it's either 5 or 3dc accuracy
