LEEDS PLUMBER - NEST THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION

[@mfielding007]

Another great video Alan, I got a hive last year, went on utube to see how to wire it all up, found it very easy to do, they are so good, can turn it on when you are on the way home on cold days so it's nice and warm when you get back

[@johnjackson7191]

Thank you Allen for your very helpful Nest guidance... hope to show my support to you now by giving to your very worthy children's charity ... good luck John Jackson

[@AllenHart999]

Thank You

[@AirlinersLive]

Great video, what is the range like between the link and the thermostat? my boiler is in the loft

[@matthewwootten9082]

Thanks for taking the time to put this video together 🙏🏻

[@gimbalair]

very helpful Allen. I have the vitodens 100W, i have identified my terminals on the boiler. The Nest Heatlink appears to need 240v and then i run the other 2 wires back to 1 and L on the boiler. so 5 core cable. L,N &E from the boiler circuit into the heatlink. Remove the link between 1 and L back at the boiler and use the greay and black spare wire into 2&3 at heatlink end and 1 and L at boiler end. If i have understood you correctly. Thanks

[@peteyeoman2720]

Hi Alan Many thanks for your video, I'm changing a Honeywell thermostat over to a Nest wireless one .Your instructional video was a great help,

[@0coolio]

*The first one **do7.pl/google** failed in finding my network after 2 weeks, but tech support was superb and the eventual exchange was stress free. Second one fine.*

Hi Allen, if possible video on water softener system and maintain good water pressure from the water softener system . Thank you

[@CatholicAventures]

Please do an updated video on your gas tool bag. What have you changed and what tools do you carry in it now? Cheers.

[@ashkumar3171]

Nice video , what’s the benefit of installing on off thermostat on hot water boiler since off time save energy however waste energy for recovery time

[@yusufh403]

Hi Alan nice video, so this 5 core you have on your video are they all going straight back into the boiler? Or are the live and neutral coming from a separate supply?

[@lemmykilmister450]

Better wiring guide than you get with a Hive, that's for sure.

[@emeczkaa88]

Hi Allen, is there any how to manual available on how to efficiently use the nest and radiators, eg what level to set the nest temperature and radiators to heat only selected rooms (e.g. bedrooms during the night or leaving area during the day)

[@Shadow1734]

Great video, I found it nice and simple. Thank you

[@hornetlm42]

Allen Hart I have a baxi 630 with a esi control fitted to the on off on the boiler.. But I am thinking of fitting a nest on opentherm, but when I take the wires out of the on off on the boiler into opentherm do I have to put a link cable back in the on off.. Thanks

[@daniboy0812]

So you replace the blue and brown ‘1 & L’ cable with a 5 core. Grey and black going in their place and then just take a feed off the L&N of the boiler itself?

[@davidsurtees4439]

With the thermostat itself I didnt have a stand for it and put it on the wall. Luckily for me the wall had an under stairs cupboard behind it with power socket in it for my tv that's on the same wall. All I did was drilled a hole thru it and plugged it up in the mains. Much better than hard wiring it. Well worth the 170 quid for it tho

[@AllenHart999]

Thanks.

[@RonaldvanWeerd]

Thanks for the video. At 6" into the video, you are wiring into the № 2 and № 3 connections. But, as the manual for the 100 WB1B says "OpenTherm control compatible", can you not install on the OT1 and OT2 connectors instead?

[@jorkirasalas2726]

No! You’d blow the boiler circuit board! OpenTherm protocol uses *low voltage* to modulate the boiler for room heating only. This vid by Allen is showing connection in an S plan system which does not modulate the boiler; it just uses on/off switching of boiler with HW &/or room heating decided by cylinder and room thermostats. For OpenTherm operation the system needs to be changed to an X plan, where the boiler is modulated by OpenTherm room thermostat for heating cycle but that is overridden by the cylinder thermostat when mains voltage switches the boiler for high temperature to heat the cylinder to avoid Legionella dangers (cylinder stat set to 60C).

[@elwittinio2865]

Nest or Hive, fitted a few Hives but no Nests . Nice video Alan 👍🤙

As always great video, what about connecting best using OpenTherm connection?

[@iandamianluciferwilson7385]

I may be starting something here but for the money what is the best combi boiler. I know each hvac has a personal preference so it should start a keyboard punch up. Another good vid Allen, thanks.

[@pointypipedream]

Baxi ar all round best for quality price and warranty. Simple solid loads in the box. You vant get more boiler.for the same money

[@nigelsharp9594]

Quick question, where did the live and neutral come from? Mains or mains out from within the boiler? Thanks.

[@imranmajid1978]

Great video, but why did the client request on/off type connection? I have a valiant combo which has a third party wireless thermostat which can vary the radiator output based upon the temperature requested. Could you please do a video to show how that could be upgraded to a nest.

[@AllenHart999]

Imran Majid The person that requested the video asked for that. Thanks

[@jamiescrimshaw2143]

Did you ever get a response to this? I have a similar question. Alain can you please clarify?

[@michaeltrimmer8899]

Does the Nest thermostat when using the separate bracket have to be left plugged into the mains even though the switching signal is wireless ?

[@MrG.42]

Excellent video, thanks for sharing.

[@caosmar]

Hi there Allen, Many thx for your videos. Have you ever try to wire an Open Therm Interface like this?

[@aam77]

Very informative video. However, I think the instructions say that you need to connect the ground wire to the heatlink only when you are using the T1 and T2 terminals to power the thermostat.

[@edc1569]

does no harm wiring it, good practice if there's an earth core in the cable you're using.

[@dickiedubs3137]

Stupid Question but does the viessmann have a live and neutral out to supply the hub. I can see the incoming but where are you getting your power from.

[@mazhariqbal3630]

Great video, I have got question, could we have separate independent main supply feed for a nest heat link and it doesn't need to be connected to combi boiler main supply spur, secondly could we have underfloor wiring centre switch wires connected to boiler switch wires in junction box just before the heat link boiler switch wires feed. Would that be possible both systems underfloor heating and nest can work both independently? As I have got a job where I have been asked to connect speedfit aura wiring centre for underfloor heating and nest for radiators, boiler make is Baxi platinum plus 40kw combi

[@danthealien8360]

Thanks for these videos mate. I'm confused, I have the same board in my boiler - but I can't see a mains out? How have you powered the heatlink? Where did you get those permanents from?

I cannot remove any of the installed equipment, so can I override the present thermostat by turning that to minimum, and leave the programmer on constant heating? Any advice welcome.

[@Haydarah313]

Thanks Allen nice work, I have question. Can you set up Nest to work on /off based on the water temperature and nothing else, for example if the water temp 60 degree or more stay off, otherwise go on until it reaches the desired temperature. to be honest i am looking for a switch to do that Nest or other vendors, smart / or dump switch :), doesn't mater . as long as it will work based on water temperature, not time schedules...etc..

[@Clicksystems]

Do you know if anywhere which stocks the USA version of the nest thermostat? Our ones are different and only do heating, American ones do heating and cooling. So anybody with a heat pump that does heating and cooling can’t use a nest.

[@jorkirasalas2726]

Hi Allen, interesting video! How about doing one for a Viessman 100-w system boiler feeding an unvented cylinder but using an X plan and Nest to attain proper boiler modulation with OpenTherm? Seems like not many installers know how to do this and are just installing the old S plan, which is a great shame considering this boiler has one of the best modulation capabilities and the current drive to reduce carbon emissions and improve boiler efficiency. Viessman seem to push their four-pipe scheme for DHW priority, but that might not be suitable for every install, especially when replacing a boiler in an existing two-pipe system.

[@jorkirasalas2726]

X plan was, I think, invented by Intergas to achieve Domestic Hot Water Priority at full heating temperature to avoid Legionella, but with OpenTherm modulation of the room heating for gas efficiency and comfort. Apparently just needs some appropriate wiring changes, a normally open water valve (instead of normally closed with S plan) on the heating circuit switched by a wire feed from the NC DHW valve, and an OpenTherm controller such as Nest 3rd generation. Apparently Tado has stopped doing HW control as nobody was implementing it in UK!!

If you buy a Nest stand, you don't get the backplate with it, so you must remove it from the wall again. Stupid if you have a fireplace and want to change the place for the Nest from the wall to the stand on a table during wintertime. To get a new backplate for your stand you have to buy a new Nest thermostat.
