Bil, we have been struggling to get conditions right since ours went up in October. We didn't have a cooler at first, figuring in October temps would not be extreme...and then we had a heat wave. Once we had a makeshift cooler, the temps dropped to the upper 30s (F), and we hadn't gotten our heater yet...so we tried to keep things warm with candles and Christmas lights. It's an ongoing battle! I hope your experience is much better than ours was!

Yeah, always the way. I want two oil rads in there each on a seperate thermostst, and a third stat that sounds a warning and switches on a fan if the temp gets really low.

Two more good stats plus postage is 60 quid, and the oil rads, 50 - 60 each, so I was going to put it off till autumn to get them as the weather was improving, and then the last week has been almost continuous rain and low temps. Wouldn't have mattered but for a nice guy just touching the damn button and me not noticing.

Feh, I can't even tell him as he'd feel bad about it and he wasn't to know.
