Salus RT300RF Digital Electronic Thermostat with RF

Product Information

If you're looking for even more control over your heating system then a smart thermostat is probably the best choice for your home. They may come at a slightly higher cost but you can control them from your smart device, adapt to your lifestyle and help you to save money on your heating bills. We’ve all been there: you come home to find your house isn’t quite as warm and toasty as it should be. You head over to the thermostat, and it seems to be working just fine – but wait! The dreaded low battery symbol is flashing. The question is, “How do I change the battery in my Salus thermostat?” Worry no more! This comprehensive guide will walk you through the process, step-by-step, so you can keep your home comfortable and energy-efficient. Most thermostats will display a low battery symbol or warning message when it’s time to replace the batteries. Conclusion

The thermostat is placed directly above one of the radiators in the lounge so not an ideal location. In its place I have bought a Salus RT300RF thermostat which I want to mount in a better position but need some advise on how to wire it up. Use a small screwdriver or other tool to remove the retaining screws that hold the batteries in place.If you work a 5 day week then your home heating requirements will differ from weekdays to weekends; with this Salus thermostat you can choose the 5/2 programming which allows you to set different requirements.

However, the Salus receiver does need a permanent live supply. If you have an existing timeswitch, or programmer the live to the existing thermostat won't be permanent (it will be switched on / off by the timeswitch) so you will need to provide one.

Runs on batteries (2x AA) which can be frustrating should they run out of power in the depths of winter and you don't have any spare. I have added some pics of the wiring and hope someone can advise on how to wire up the Salus RT300RF base unit. If you have a Salus RT520 thermostat, you may need to change the battery from time to time. Here’s how to do it: You will then need to find what cable at the 'wiring centre' is going to the old room thermostat, and fully disconnect it as it is not needed any more. you will then need to fit a wire link between the two terminals in the wiring centre where the old thermostats red and yellow wires were.

Safety first, folks! Make sure your thermostat is off before you start tinkering with it. You wouldn’t want to accidentally trigger any settings while changing the batteries. Step 2: Remove the Thermostat Cover
