The message
from "John" contains these words:

If it isn't in the warmest area the heating won't turn on even though
the area you want warm has cooled below the desired temp.

What on earth are you on about?

Does seem to be complete nonsense.

Shame that its not.

If you put the stat in the coldest place the temperature has to drop below
the desired temp in the warmer areas before the heating will turn on. In
fact the lounge could sit at a lower temperature for weeks at a time without
the heating switching on if you put the stat in a cooler area.


I'm trying to understand what you say above . Surely if the stat is
placed in the coldest place and the temp in that room drops below what
the stat is set at the heating will come on ,thereby heating the
lounge as well.
