Brilliant, thanks a lot. All settled after moving in a new flat.
Thank you. that was very helpful and you explained things really well. Manual all the time for me.🤗
Thank you, I had forgotten how to do it so this was very useful for me.🙂
Thank you for taking the time to do the demonstration, it was very easy to follow and I have now completed my winter settings for the heating . :)
Hi I’m struggling with the off time I’ve set to go off at 22.30 but it comes back on hope you could help thanks
@@helenc8309 I imagine that it is coming back on because the house temperature has dropped to below the lowest set temperature. Before you go to bed just lower the temperature on your room thermostat to about 14 degrees and it should not come on unless your house is very cold. Hope this helps
Very clear, unlike the handbook. Big thankyou!
Good explanation better than other I've seen.
We're happy to hear - hope the video helped!
Best explanation I've seen, and I'm using the old model even.😂
Glad the video could help
Much quicker and direct than last video. Thanks.
Thanks for your feedback Jackie!
Awesome guide! Thank you. Do you know how these things communicate? Is it bluetooth? I'm keen to upgrade to a smart system but not sure how complicated it'll be to replace this system in my new home
mate thanks, i moved into property, its 3am, and heating had come on when not needed, googled center controller and watched your video, thanks, all sorted,
Could you please advise on how to use the Temporary Override and Permanent Override. Thanks.
Thank you. That was very helpful.
Glad to hear it!
Great job thank you
Thanks for this, really helpful video for something i found quite confusing! One question i just wanted to ask is, do these thermostats all have frost protection, and is there a way to check this?
Great to hear it helped to ease your confusion - thermostats aren't the easiest things to operate 😅 This thermostat does have frost protection when in standby mode. Not all thermostats have this feature though, but most of the newer ones do!
My control unit broke and keeps going off . So I had to buy a new one how do I disconnect the old control unit re connect the new one my boiler please
Great video, i have just had a new boiler fitted, however even when i put the remote in manual mode the boiler is firing up, so i have to turn it of on the remote to stop it. This is a problem as i do not live at the property. Any advice please
Amazing
Thank you very much
My first question is. While on the auto setting, does your boiler kick in at the time the programme is set too or will it learn your set times and heat your house so that it is that temperature at said times? I'm trying to figure out whether I need to set the times earlier so that my house is the temperature I want for certain times. For example, if i want my house to be 18 degrees at 7 am, I programme my time to 6 am. Second question: How long will my house stay at the desired temperature or does it just hit that temperature and turn off?
It will only learn times on smart thermostats such as The Hive. The auto setting on this thermostat will allow your scheduled programmes to run. The best thing to do is test this and see if your house is at your desired temperature at the times you initially set it. It will hold the temperature until it has been scheduled to change temperature e.g to turn off and go down to 15 degrees.
Can you post a video on how to rebind this product please
Replaced my batteries how do i reconnect my wireless remote or pair it to my boiler please?
Life bloody saver
Where can ı renew the batteries on this ???
Hey, the bottom flap slides off so that you can get at the batteries.
Thank you for great video, one quick question: How to set only hot water intervals ?
Cener termostat is a piece of crap AVOID!!!!
can someone give me a model number for this as I need the Manual as this was fitted yesterday and the pluner left NO instructions ,advise or manual !! Im 92 yrs old and NEED the Manual
Hi, this should be the right manual for you: www.wolseley.co.uk/wcsstore/Wolseley//Attachment/center-programmable-thermostat-page/centerstat-user-guide.pdf
I keep getting a ⚠️ symbol appear, what does it mean?
Hi, hope you can help, my monitor keeps going blank although I've changed the battery?
Thanks
im having that problem with screen going blank also. Im thinking the battery compartment is a bit loose with battery fit so have folded some toilet paper to take up the slack. hope this works, you may try it.
One big mistake is that you program Monday and than you copy Tuesday which is default setting and W,T,F, S ends up with default Tuesday setting.
Once you saved Monday with +|- go back to Monday and copy Monday which is what you set and then save to rest of the week.
If I want the heating on permanently do I use the manual control button?
Hi Catherine, yes you will need to use the manual operation mode.
@@Heatable So I use the up and down buttons on the side? Do I touch the controls on the boiler at all?
@@catherinerigg8281 You should only need to touch the buttons on the right of the control, you shouldn't have to touch your boiler.
How do I just turn on and off when needed instead of setting programmes thanks
Hey Joe, you can use the navigation buttons to locate the standby icon which will turn the heating on and off.
Good Job
I have found the instructions for enabling this mode please see below.
Please start by pressing and holding the menu button (bottom left under the display) and the up arrow (top button to the right of the display) together and hold for 3 to 4 seconds.
Press the tick option (bottom right button under the display) till the start optimization code appears on the screen as 17:OP and flashes, select the tick option to have the digit 0 under the start optimization code flash, (0 means disabled and 1 means enabled) when the digit 0 is flashing, use the up and down arrow to the right of the display to adjust the digit to the number 1, then continue to select the tick option till the end optimization option appears as 18:OS and select the tick for the digit to flash, 0 means disabled, and 1 means enabled, use the arrow on the right of the display to adjust and the bottom right button to tick/enter through until you return to your main display menu.
This is my second thermostat now this one is not working properly.
I only use manual.....the little flame 🔥 dosnt come on like the first one and when I turn down the temperature it dosnt shut off even when I turn it to OFF the boiler is still on and came on 3 times in the night when OFF my back boiler is also off I had to turn the boiler off for it to stop.
My service engineer said there are a few dud ones I think this is another hopefully he can change this one to.
Have you found this at all . Thanks
Hi Debra, there are some issues with the thermostat which is why we don't currently sell them (and won't until they've resolved their issues). We recommend switching to EPH or ESi! Definitely report it to Worsley who own Center - will be good for them to hear how to improve the product for customers.
Cheers.
A good explanation and probably eminently accessible unless you are a thicko like me! But life's too short. Does anyone really want a complication like Center in their life? The manufacturer's instructions contain, in my opinion, far too many unexplained words. For example, on page two: ‘Optimisation Active: only displayed if optimisation has been enabled in the installer settings.’ So what does ‘optimisation’ mean and what are the ‘installer settings’?
Or ‘Heat Demand’ - what does that mean? And what about ‘Room temperature is below setpoint’. What’s a setpoint? Possibly you know or can guess what a ‘setpoint’ is? I can’t. Nor do I know what a ‘Receiver Box’ is. but then I'm just an English teacher with a joint degree in English and History, so I don't stand a chance, do I!
My old boiler had a dial fixed to the wall in the passageway. If I wanted the heating turned on, I turned the dial - nothing more. If the house became too warm I turned the dial down. If the temperature in the house fell below, say, 20 degrees, the heating would switch itself on automatically. It was simple and reliable. Just a dial on the wall. This boiler’s instructions mean that like so much else in this modern world, I am excluded. I am willing to believe that it might be superior to the old boiler - doubtless it has many new design features which cause the manufacturer to feel pleased with himself, but it is inaccessible to me and rather than giving me a warm and comfortable feeling and a warm and comfortable house, it makes me feel frustrated, excluded and, unspeakably angry. I would happily rip the boiler from the wall and chuck it in the dustbin if it hadn’t cost me almost two grand!
So I think - I hope and pray - that I have switched the boiler off, apart from it supplying me with hot water - which by the way is too hot and scalds my hands!
Instead I will rely on my two oil-fired heaters which only require being plugged into a wall socket and have a simple on/off switch. In the bathroom and kitchen I have fan heaters which exceed even the oil heaters’ operational simplicity.
And if they fail, I have over a hundred candles stored away in a safe place - and matches galore, and if they fail I will rub two sticks together rather than attempt to understand the manufacturers' instructions for both this gadget and the boiler it is linked to.
Hi Mr Russel, we're sorry that we couldn't make the explanation any simpler for you. In the mean time, take a look at our article on how to turn your flow temperature down (so your water isn't scalding) heatable.co.uk/boiler-advice/boiler-flow-temperature. (It'll actually save you money too).
@@Heatable
@@Heatable I think the problem is that your instructions are written by heating engineers for heating engineers. You need to spend a little bit of money getting someone - possibly a teacher who is used to explaining things to children - to write the instructions. Heating engineers have the skills but that does not mean they can pass on their knowledge to the uninitiated - that also is a skill. But thanks for replying.
Nah screw this you either learn and keep up or you just hide in your house using tech from ten years ago and feeling lost. Its actually quite ignorant to expect everything to be spoonfed to you. If your capable of using youtube comments your capable of googling what room temp is below set point means but to be honest common sense would explain that if a temperature of something is below a set point then clearly something was set and the temp has dropped below what was set. You yourself already explained a set point when you said when it dropped below say 20 degrees the heating would turn on
I totally agree. This kind of technology is a step backwards. That's the problem with much new tech - it brings new expectations and doesn't make life more convenient. If new tech doesn't SIMPLIFY things, what's the point?
My thermostat won’t turn my heating on on auto mode any advise it is a new 340022 EHE0200322
The last couple of mornings my unit has beeped at me very loudly. I'm pretty sure it is this beeping and not anything else. Just one loud beep lasting about a second. Why would it do that? Thanks.
Sounds like it's mocking you... This isn't something that we've ever come across so would be worth giving Wolseley a call 0344 292 7060.
@@Heatable It definitely is mocking me lol at around 6am. It's since I messed around with the controls. I will get round to following this guide and see if it leaves me be!
Hi please can you advise how to pair my centre device to my boiler it’s just stopped connecting??!
Hey Kathryn, we'd advise resetting the thermostat to see if this reconnects it. You can either turn the plug off to the boiler and thermostat for 30 seconds or turn the thermostat batteries the wrong way around. Hopefully this does the trick!
Is there a remote control for this unit … mine was installed in a really awkward spot
If you had a smart thermostat you could control your heating from your phone but the Center thermostat can't be controlled via the phone only the control itself.
My heating keeps coming on.
My controller is flashing and says year above It
Hi there
I have a Center wireless thermostat which I am quite happy with but just wanted to ask a question....I have mine on auto mode with P2 set at 0730 and P4 set at 2100
I would expect the boiler to turn off at these times but I've noticed that sometimes it fires up again a few minutes after the off times have passed. Is there a reason for this? Many thanks
Hi Andrea, do you have any settings for P1 or P3? Could this possibly be interfering with your off times?
Hi there thanks for your reply. My P1 is set for 0530 and my P3 is set for 1700
My combi boiler is a Baxi Platinum and it's 9 years old and working well. Thanks again for your help.
@@andreastorey1721 It sounds like this is just standby mode ( frost protection) kicking in. If it is then your heating will come on when it goes below 5 degrees.
T hats good to know thank you! 😃
Mines saying the room temp is 45 degree's even tho the heating isn't on, is they anyway to reset this device?
Hi Gavin, your best bet is to remove the batteries, pop them in the wrong way and then wait for at least 10 seconds before putting them in the right way. This should usually reset your thermostat!
@Heatable just tried this and its still stuck at 45 degrees
is this the actual thermostat sensor that detects the teperature of the room or is it just the remote control?
As he pointed out its reading hotter because its in his hand sooooooo
@@luc1ferblack Sooooo...... from your needlessly sarcastic answer we can assume you are a total prick. is that right?
Why is my programm stuck on p2
Who makes Center thermostats? Mine comes on at 1200 midday and stays on. It is set to come on at 1200 and off at 1200 but it just stays on. I have tried off at 1210 but it still strays on. At lease 6 different plumbers and electricians have had a look and no one can stop it coming on.
Thank u soooo much 😭😭❤️🩹
This really helped a lot 🤌🏾💜
I appreciate 🙏 💛
Thanks Britney, we appreciate your comment!
I use the thermostat as an on/off switch to the boiler over a long period the display has been getting fainter, today the screen is dead. I've changed the batteries but it's still dead, What else can I do?
If the display was slowly fading anyway it sounds like there's a bigger problem at hand. Your best bet is to contact Wolseley with this one!
Who is or are Wolseley? have you got a phone or email contact number for them please? @@Heatable
How can I find the set temperature on this thermostat please?
Does anybody know how to change the battery in these please? Thanks
Hi Courtney, you have to push the flap down at the bottom where the Center logo is (it usually takes some force).
Where does the battery go and how do you access the battery
i you
The bottom flap slides off!
What to do when the flame doesn’t come up it doesn’t work when I say on or off what can I do
Hi Hala, have you reset the thermostat and it still hasn't reappeared?
Yes it didn’t and the off and on is not working it says but doesn’t do anything
Anyone know how to resync controller to boiler ??
Came here in hope of figuring how turn to the boiler on without having to turn the heating on but it looks I'll be buying a new thermostat
Can you please tell me how to put battery in it
The bottom flap slides off, it is tough so you'll need to give it some force 😂
@@Heatable thank you very much your tip did help me a lot ..
Hi, does this happen to come with an app?
Hey Sharon, unfortunately this one doesn't have app connectivity.
@@Heatable ah okay, thank you.
This is a bit confusing! Okay so I don't want the heating on in the morning at all. Will this work:
P1, 5pm, 17
P2 6pm, 18
P3, 6.30pm, 18
P4, 10pm, 13
Basically I only want the heating on around 18 in the evening. Would those settings work?
It's worth just trying these settings out for a day or so and seeing if it's achieving the heat you want at the times you want it.
how to change time pls
How do I change the batteries
The bit at the bottom of the screen pulls down (you'll see two little white dots that you use your thumb to pull down on)
Are you able to tell me how to activate the optimisation please?
Optimisation has to be activated via the installer settings. You need to turn optimum start and or optimum stop on. 0 means the setting is disabled and 1 is the setting activated. Please see an installer guide for full instructions.
Thank you, I don’t have nor can I find an installer guide for the thermostat, just the users guide, are you able to help further please?
I just googled the installer guide and cannot find it in there either 🤷🏻♀️
@emmathorlby7486 Hi Emma, this might not be the exact one for your thermostat but it should be similar. Hope it helps. www.manualslib.com/manual/1694396/Center-340017.html#manual
Thank you, I appreciate it, but still nothing about turning on the optimisation.
How do I change the battery please?
You can change them by pulling the flap at the bottom of the thermostat down (the bit with the logo on).
@@Heatablewhy didn’t you demonstrate this in the video? Its not easy to remove at all
@@summerislander4672 Thanks for your feedback - we'll keep this in mind for any future demo videos like this one!
🎉🎉
My controller seems to have lost the flame icon, which tells you whether the heating is on or not. Anyone had this problem or any ideas how to get my flame back?
Have you already tried resetting the thermostat? This should usually reset the display as well.
Thanks for replying...how do I reset it? I've checked the instructions and it doesn't mention it.
@goldfinch8792 Your best bet is to remove the batteries, pop them in the wrong way and then wait for at least 10 seconds before putting them in the right way. This should usually reset your thermostat.
Hi, sorry to be a pain, but just tried reset and the flame hasn't reappeared. Do you have any other ideas. Thanks
@@goldfinch8792 At this point we'd advise popping it in rice... 😂😅(only kidding... that won't help either). Your best bet is to use the chat/e-mail function on Wolseley's website, I imagine they'll have dealt with this problem and be able to help.
How to change batteries
We've answered this question in the comments 👇
I can’t work out how to change the batteries!
You can change them by pulling the flap at the bottom of the thermostat down (the bit with the logo on).
Why is there no battery level icon and why is it when the batteries are too low to connect to the receiver, the boiler activates the heating?
Not too sure about why that might be, that's definitely a question for Wolseley who make the Center thermostats!
how do we change time now the clocks have changed ?
If you press menu, select the settings menu by pressing up or down, and then select the 'tick' and up, it'll ask you to select the year, but keep pressing the up button to pass the year and the day option. It'll then bring you to the hour option. Adjust this accordingly then to set this, again, select the 'tick' and up button and repeat this same thing with the minute. You can then exit settings and return to the home screen once you have confirmed your changes.
I set mine to come on at 3.30pm but for some reason it come on at 1.30. And the time is set correct

Why has my MAN stopped working? No flashing lights or battery issues???
Coz its a peice of shit mate. Constantly goes off. Just use it MANUALLY because the automatic side is just dogshit
It goes off constantly 🤷🏻♂️
Like. Its FOREVER wanting you to set the date and time!?? Wtf !??
DREADFUL!!
Avoid this device at all costs!!!
see my comment above, maybe loose battery fit, try folding some toilet paper in there to take up the slack
I have the exact same problem and have had enough. What can it be replaced with?
@@lalulu03 if you find out. Let me know dude. Id love to set the timers
My unit works but doesn't show the flame to say its on neither does it show the wireless connected icon. Any ideas how I fix that please
Same :(
