Hey i'm afraid it's not something I've worked with before, all I can suggest is give your hive a go, see how your bills come out, if you feel the boiler isn't being as efficient as you were expecting I would then look into trying out new controllers like the Halo in the hopes to improve your efficiency. I wouldn't bother spending extra money on a new controller when you already have a well reviewed, working stat. But I do agree with you, the Halo's do look pretty cool.
@@iheat think I will give it a go as I have had the hive for a while and i like the fact it doesn't need a gateway to work, also the extra functionally looks good...top review btw.
we had our boiler fitted 2 and a half years ago so I thought its time we had it serviced they servied it in march this year but since they servied it the pressure goes done to in a about a week the engineer came back checked th boiler and all raidiators but could not find any leaks could it be th relief valve or the exspansion chamber thet is causing the pressure to drop there is no sign of leaks anywere I have checked quite aa few time I evening took floor board up on the landing as I had some work done some months ago all dry any ideas please
Hey this does sound unusual it could well be the relief valve or the expansion vessel. Have you inspected the relief valve pipe outside your property? It should look like a copper pipe coming from the wall and bending in on itself, If the pipe is wet or there are signs of water coming out of it in the past it could be a sign of a fault with the valve or expansion vessel.
These are poor quality...mine is causing problems ..now the gas fitting inside is gone...making a whistling noise...plummer told me get a bosch ....he was right...guy has to fit a new gas fitting inside it...just as well its under warranty...just 4 years old...
any experience with the halo wifi controller ? . getting an ideal soon and i have a hive system at the moment but like the look of the halo

@@iheat there is no sign of water coming out of the copper pipe I have to top up the pressure about every 5 days

Absolute rubbish boiler
why ?
@@chrisbpr67 cheap, can’t be range rated, not as efficient as better boilers. Troublesome
@@heatpump8566what’s a better boiler? Need a new boiler not sure what’s best? Glow worm?
