I currently have a Myson MRT1 thermostat to control the kickspace

wall and is causing problems opening a fridge nearby. Owing to a

where it is. I am looking for a suitable €śthin€ť replacement, it
sits on a 16mm back box but that could be made deeper if
required. The MRT1 is the type with an anticipator resister and I
require a direct replacement, it does not have to be programmable
that is handled elsewhere just a bog standard type is required.
Unfortunately getting dimensions for various types is proving
difficult hence why I am asking for recommendations.
Thank you in anticipation.

What about the MRTE. Modern thermostats use an electronic sensor
and swicth and so don't need the gas bellow to overcome the thermal
intertia in a bi-metalic strip. Its still protrudes 20mm

Thanks for the heads up David. It seems the MRTE is basically a two
wire device so I will just have to disconnect the neutral. The 20mm
protrusion will make a big difference as the stat is very close to
the hinged edge of the fridge door. I was looking at a few but 28mm
protrusion was the smallest I could find. Now just need to find
someone who stocks them, SF and TS of course do not, I suppose I
could go direct to Myson but imagine they will charge list price.
This should give you a starting price:
