Thanks.
Thanks so much! Excellent easy to understand and very much appreciated!
No problem I'm glad it was useful

Thanks, mate, this was perfect and really helpful
Thanks for the positive feedback
Thanks for the positive feedback
Hi, firstly thanks, just got this today (sadly, as our old ideal controller is already being missed as this one seems rubbish in comparison) and the instructions for this made no sense to me so really grateful for the video. Is there a way of running this in a manual mode? Is Overide the equivalent of that? Not interested in the programs but just wanted to click it on and off as needed.
Up down arrows will boost or stop. just set a low 14 all night and 16 all day and boost as required . Keeping a min back ground temp in your home will cost you less .
Hi ,iv just had a new worcester boiler fitted with this salus thermostat, iv messed with the test and pairing button and messed things up ,there's no green light and the red one is flashing, any ideas how to sort it out ,many thanks
First off they should not have used this stat on a new combination boiler instal as it does meet current building regulations . . From memory but lease read instructions to confirm . Turn off power to the Stat Recever boiler end . Then press the pairing button on the thermostat programmer unit . Then quickly turn on thermostat receiver at the boiler end when you have a solid red light it’s paired
Hi, wondering if you could help me? It seems as if my thermostat is disconnected from the boiler. When I turn the switch on to manual my boiler turns on but I can't seem to be able to turn it on using the auto function at the moment.
Try re syncing.. But counl be a faulty unit. Salus do have a tec line
Hi thanks for the vid! I have a question - for some reason my time schedule is not working. I've set it up exactly as you've said and have the receiver on and set to automatic (if set to manual the green light comes on and the floor heats up fine). But on automatic, when it reaches the on time e.g. 7am, the green light does not come on at the receiver and nothing heats up. Should the receiver have the green light on when the time is triggered?
Yes check it's not in manual check your settings
Hi mate, just had one of these installed in my flat. Just wondering, is it more cost efficient to keep it on through the day but on a low-ish temperature or put it on manual and turn it on and off when I leave and come back to the flat?
If your realy well insulated keep the flat on 16 and set the times u are in to say 18or 20. Set flow temp on boiler ch to 55 degrees
Great video! Where is it best to put the thermostat when it's on the stand? Would on top of the fireplace be ok or as far from the radiator as possible?
Out of the sun not to close to the radiator away from heat generating appliances
Fab; very helpful but can you tell me what the child lock does? Thanks
Stops the buttons working so little fingers can't mess. Please like and subscribe
Sounds great video looks great however there is no “tick” on my thermostat to fo this. When I managed to contact thus company a year ago they asked me via email to do these strops backwards ie you do program number six first but trying to get hold of them now to repeat these steps....waste of time and the thermostat turns on when it feels like it despite dates and times. Why doesn’t thus Dirk lije apsimething sporiaching normality?
Time and temp . Cock your am and pm and current time . Turn if optimum start just use on off . Check your not using day by day settings
I'm so glad I found your video, I've been trying to set the thermostat for ages, I genuinely thought that the 6 programmes were what time the boiler comes on and what time it goes off 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️Can you explain to me please what the DIP switch does, I have the 24hr switched on, you don't seem to have touched yours though?? Any help would great, thank you xx
hi just looked at instructions ones for span that's the difference between demand temp and satisfied temp. 24hour or 5 and 2 is every day the same or weekends different timings.hope that's usefull
@@timeintheuk ah thanks so much, I thought i had it sorted but it's gone off again 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ I'll have another look at it tomorrow. Thank again 😊
Trying to set my thermostat today. Why is it reading 23.5 degrees when it's blatantly not that warm. I've set it all up but it reads the temperature wrong. I had this issue last year and ended up having to manually turn it up to higher than the thermo was reading in order to get any heat! 🤔
Only thing u could try is removing the battery's overnight or replacing the unit altogether
Hey, I have the solid red light but I can’t get the green light to show. I have it switched to auto but can’t turn the heating on using the thermostat.
When I switch the box to manual the heating turns on. Can you assist?
Try fitting new batteries
Then turn to 10 degrees leave for 60 seconds and back up to 26 Deg and repeat .bring head unit nearer receiver . Is all else fails replace the units they have a 5 years warranty with salis
V helpful thanks, I found the paper instructions in box v unclear.
No problem glad your sorted
Hi. So I’ve had my boiler for nearly 10 months and it’s starting making a constant low humming noise when not in use. Tried turning it on and off but no use. sounds like it’s on all the time. But the boiler does get louder when hot water is in use or heating is on. So don’t understand why the humming noise is there. I’ve checked the pressure. Wanted some advice before I call anyone out. Many thanks
Without knowing the Brand / model of boiler or the indicators shown I can't help you. Try calling the tec support line for the boiler company.
Hi i have the same thermostat ive set it but say i didnt want the programmes to come on what would i do? Press the handsign?
yes that would work
Hello! Thanks for this video. I've programmed a timer, but still the heating goes over my desired programme time. Is there a function to not run on thermostat? Just my programme time? Or do I need it to be on thermostat on to get the heating to be turned on?
ItS time and temp not on off
time in the uk ah ok. Just have to make sure the temp is right so the heating will go off at that desired temperature? Sorry, want to make sure I'm doing it right 😊
My RT510TX died (tried all the new batteries my boiler man & I had) so ordered a new controller RT510E. It won't sync What am I doing wrong?
Tx and e are not compatible . How may parts does your new kit have if 2 parts change both
Hi, thanks so much for this video.
Do I need to set the timings on the boiler manually using the little pegs? Or is it all controlled by the thermostat once set to auto?
If I don't need to use the pegs shall they all be up and not in use?
Depends how it's wired but normaly I set that to constant on all the time and let the salus control the heating
Hi. Does anyone know how to turn the programmes off? My heating is coming on at all different times day and night. I want to be able to just turn on the heating and set my own temperature.
Thanks ☺️
Hi u can't on this control. U could set everything to 14 and boost up as required
@@timeintheuk Thank you very much for replying so quickly. How do I set everything to 14 and then by boosting do you mean use the up arrow to control the temperature? Sorry I'm new to central heating and my house had storage heating. Thank you so much
@@MrSheephorse just set every temp to 14. Watch the vids I've made and others vids to get the the idea. I i will say however setting it up properly will give you greater comfort and lower bills. I yyou can always call salus tec line on Friday
Hi my thermostat wont re sync after the batteries ran out! Display shows Sync 10 and counts down after pressing test/pairing bit the green light doesnt come on, red light is solid....can you help?!
What is your thermostat make model.. also have you tried turning the room temp up and down. Salas Tec
@@timeintheuk it's the salus rt510rf yes I've tried the up down arrows for temp and turning the control panel on the wall on and off that I'm trying to pair the controller to!
ua-cam.com/video/YdqKYhPkkR4/v-deo.html have a look at this vid . If you can’t make your stat do this it could be faulty . However solid red light should mean it’s correctly paired
Hi, I hope you can help. We have a Salus RT310RF which was fitted with our boiler at the time of installation.
Our heating hasn't worked today and when I looked at the receiver the green auto light wasn't on, I turned it off an on again but the green light still didn't come on. I turned everything off, left it a while then switched it back on at the mains, still no green light. The green light works if I put it on manual. I have tried to pair it numerous times but still the green light won't come on in the auto position. Please can you help? What am I doing wrong? Many thanks
Don't.try.psiring.replace batterys turn below room temp them back above again 20 seconds after and repeat
@time in the uk hi, did as you said, still didn't work 😭 red light was flashing on the receiver, I started the pairing procedure until the red light stopped flashing, turned thermostat up and down like you said ad it WORKED, thank you sooooooo much, no more too cold or too hot lol.
Massive help thank you
How do I set the actual time on it? Not the time the heating comes on but time on the thermostat so it turns on at the right times?
Press hold 2 buttons.selec & set
Hey, we got one of these today. Is there anyway to keep it turned off when we don't want the heating on? And can it be switched off but come back on for our timers? Thank you
Use the down arrow to lower the temp
Set the temps you want at the time you want. You can watch the vid again or the others to work out how
I use the hand button to switch on & frost button to turn off - you would think they would make a simple thermostat
Am i right in thinking that to turn off the heating i have to simultaneously press the up and down arrows for 3 secs. There is nothing in the info leaflet. I trawled net for an answer and thats what I got...tq
Nope
Hit the down arrow to below room temp to boost down or select frost function to keep heating off till autumn
Many thanks. .. will give that a shot...but daft of Salus not to put in their guide!
Re the 3 seconds thing. It may be a thing but I've never heard of that
What does the +HR button , when I press it nothing happens, I thought it was to put heating in manually.
plus one hour
When I press it the heating isnt coming and water isnt heating up
@@normakellock7667 the thermostat does not control the hot water. The check the boiler is functioning correctly
How do u set a salus thermostast to manual use
Up arrow to boost on . What model do u have
Presently my thermostat is on frost and 24oc..so no heating on but the receiver is showing red and no green light not until you switch it to manual till the green light shows why Is that?
Green light is demand signal light. You have no demand so no green light
@@timeintheuk thanks, so if I want to avoid the setting bit and keep it to simple manual, do I just push it to Manual to get the heating on and back to auto to switch the heating off?
I've got the old receiver with just the on/off button. It came with the RT500RF thermostat. I couldn't get the old thermostat so I had to purchase the upgraded version rt510tx . Can I still pair this with my old rt500 receiver?
Honestly I don't know try following the pairing process in the instructions .good luck 🤞 let me know how u get on
@@timeintheuk it didn't work. I've managed to find the old version thermostat so ordered that.
@@salnath4515 thanks for the feedback
How can I set day time 23 and night time 20 degrees :/
Set last setting to 20 degrees. All other to 23
Hello,Can you tell me please, how do I tell if the hand held is synced to my boiler? Or how do I do this? tia
Boost up to 25 degrees does the receiver have a green light does it start the heating. Yes = it's fine
@@timeintheuk cheers but not helpful. The receiver is different on my boiler.I edited my question but it did not show. Mines is a RT510TX. I eventually sussed it.A little button below the red light needs to be pushed for 5 seconds.
@@davestewart2215 frost mode i imagine
Should all the road valves be fully open ?
The radiator nearest the syst should be open both ends with a good flow throu . Unless this caused balance issues
HI. This was so helpful as my landlord has not left me the instruction book and it is seriously baffling if youve never used one before!!! can i please just ask - if the unit doesnt ask for a date how does the holiday function work? do you just press it when you are leaving and returning?
The dates in the time setting section of the menus if it's there that's where it is day date time I think
I've a few more vids on this as do other guys
Thanks. I think mine must be an old model.like in the video because it only has day and time no dates. Ill just put it on frost mode. It will just be chilly when we get back!!! Thanks for yourbhelp😊
Hi, do you know what the frost button is used for?? in what instance would i need to press that button ever?
also, the +1 hour button, what temp does that tel the boiler to go up to??
OK you going for a holiday for 2 weeks in the med in Jan it's snow outside. But u don't want your heating on at full pelt for a empty house. But turning it off may allow your pipes to freeze. Putting it on frost will keep your house at 5 degrees so min heating input and no frozen pipes. Simple and useful for that reason
And the plus one hour gives you 1 more hour so say heating would normaly go off at 9pm it goes off at 10pm temps do not change
@@timeintheuk that's great! thank you for the reply!
is there an option to have my thermostat set to 16C all day, but to push the "+1Hr" button to heat up the house when needed? for example; if i wanted to boost my central heating to 20C for 2 hours, would i raise the temp on thermostat to 20C and push +1hr twice?
after those 2 hours, will my boiler then go back down to 16c?
@@tommymcallister3202 honestly don't know try the salas tec guys they are super helpful
Hi, is there a way to set this so that if the home gets below a certain temperature it automatically kicks in? Just moved into a new home and my old home had this function which was brilliant.
14 at night and whatever temp you want whenever you want it
@@timeintheuk yes that's exactly what I want it to do. But can it only be done by going through the rigmarole of setting what day it is and the time? Is there a simpler way of just setting a minimum temp for it to come on rather than doing all that?
Nope it needs setting
Had mine for two years and it's worked fine. The battery warning just came on, changed them out and now it won't turn on. Is it knackered or am I missing something?
Turn it down below room temp and leave for 60 seconds then back up to above room temp and see if green light comes on. Also your probably going to need to set the time and temp settings
@@timeintheuk Sorry, I should have specified. The screen isn't coming on automatically when I put new batteries in so I can't do anything with it.
@@firmlyuninformative check battery's are not in the wrong way around. You may of lost one of the metal plates the battery touches. Also check the battery's are good. Also on the recever u can flick it on to manual to get the heating on
Hannah Cattell take out batteries for 10 minutes and then put back in. Just had same problem. Simple but for some reason it works!
Yeah take new batteries out for 20-30 mins then should work
Hi - I've tried to get Salus technology to help with a question without success. Hopefully you can 🤞I would like to delete some unwanted program timings. Salus said to find the program and press the delete button. They didn't say how to press delete though (is there even a delete button...?). It's an RT510TX
Hi why would you want to delete a time zone .anyway from memory as these units are old you have 6 .
Simply do this set no 3 to 1159 and 14 degrees
Set no 4 to 12 01 pm and the required temperature 🤒🌡️
Hope that helps
Thanks for the response. For some reason there are multiple timings throughout each setting and I would like to delete some of the timings. @@timeintheuk
@@jodealey6776 its simple to do . devide you day into slices and add the required values . slices can be a repeat of the prev value and also can be just a few min .
Thanks for the video but the controller is very complicated !! .. its not user friendly..
It's about std for what it is im afraid there's alot worse out there. Unless you go for an app powered one
hi can you control the heating by your mobile phone
Nope sorry not with this one .hive ones will tho
hello there is any night setting bcoz after 23:00 pm not working thermostat. i want to put heating on midnight
can u please let me know if anyone know
Hi set the 2300 hrs temp to 17to 22 degrees and it will be on
Yeah I did 24 hours
Does that help you uncan also boost as per the vid

How do you reset for a new programme
If you reset you goimgntonhsve to set the time and pair again. Simply changing the setting to better ones is by far the best option
How can I completely turn off the heating in summer
On the boiler or off in the receiver
Or turn on frost function
Hi how do I get rid of programmes I don’t need ?
Leave them at 14degC..
yep it will keep room at 14
My thermostat won’t turn down when I put it on 5 degrees and keeps going up and up even when I press manual it won’t turn off?! What shall I do
It’s a live reading of the current room temp . . It will still be set to 5 .
A like and subscribe the the channel is the best way to say thanks
time in the uk but the heating randomly comes on and won’t go down even when we set the settings
How do you turn this thing off!?
Off switch on the receiver
Why can’t I turn my heating up? When I try to it just jumps back to what the heating was before!!! So frustrating and it’s freezing
The thermostat shows the curren room temp . When u hit the up arrow that's the target temp for your room and should be set to above the current room temp to bring it up you should have a red and green light on the receiver next to the boiler to indicate your heatings on . Message back with your findings
Please give me a subscription to help the channel
On the receiver until next to the boiler slide the bottom slider to the right . That's manual move and your heating will be on constant . So I will need to turn off to stop overheating . Likes and subscription would be greatly appreciated as it really helps the channel
Arrrggghhh what a crap thermostat make.ive got the rt310i and the receiver only has the solid red light. No green light. The gateway is on a green light but no matter what i do from my mobile no instructions seem to be hitting my receiver......painful. im freezing. Boiler is a new Valliant. Wish i had known how unintuituve salus is. Good video and well spoken. 👍
Hi the 310 is old tec now I'm afraid
Be sure to turn stay to bellow room temp for a few min before booting to above room temp and repeat u till it connects

I have set ours to 7c as we don't want it to come on at all but still comes on every night rubbish thermostat.
Double check your tines and settings.. Does a. Neigh four have the same unit. Does your boiler have a aqua comfort setting turned on. Check for a green light on the recever whe it Comes on at unwanted times
????? how to PROGRAM???
Use select and set
Salus have the rudest customer service helpline I have ever spoken to. I am reporting Salus to our boiler supplier, Imragas. I expect Salus to have an interest in keeping their customers with fully working products, not just to turn over a profit, as there customer advisor told me. I asked him straight out "So you're not interested in keeping your customers happy with a product that works to its specifications?" And all I got from Salus was "We're not interested in upgrading customers to a product that works better, because of a faulty unit, we will only replace your control unit with the same model" I replied "Even if that control unit has a warranty failure, and a terrible manual, and a horrible interface making up 90% of your service complaints?" Answer "Yes, we're not interested in keeping our customers happy like that, you'll just get the same model back, we'll never upgrade you." My control units capacitors don't take 10 minutes to discharge, the advisor said wait 24 hours. Who would be happy with this in the middle of winter? What a disgusting attitude Salus have.
Thanks for your comment
@@timeintheuk This guide is a big help though, and I'll get my parents to watch it and understand it so they can help themselves on the very, very slim off chance it responds to any kind of setup.
I've just found out Impragas has gone bust! No notification or anything from them. This Salus unit is still horrible to setup, even with your guide.
Steven West yes they took a few. Merchants for a lot of money
Im amazed at their lack of shame. Gobsmacked.
YES!!! it certainly IS A BIT FRONT HEAVY!!! 5:55
Personally I would say it's F*****G IRRITATING and BADLY DESIGNED!!
It literally NEVER stands up for more than a couple of minutes before it goes crashing to the ground like yours just did!
Talk about POOR DESIGN!! Seriously!! Did nobody notice this during the production trials????
I honestly despair how this could be designed so badly, a 10 year old school kid could of done better!
