Room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electric fires, televisions, wall or table lamps may prevent the thermostat from working prop- erly. Also keep out of direct sunlight. N.B!! This thermostat has the option of standard setting or TPI.
What is Chronoproportional Control (TPI)? A chronoproportional (or TPI) room thermostat makes boilers operate more efficiently and provide close accurate control. Chronoproportional control is a load compensator as it ensures that the boiler ‘ON’ time is reduced to a minimum and matches the boiler heat output with the heat loss.
TPI. What is Delayed Start? The ESi Delayed Start function offers real energy savings. Save as much as 10% on your heating costs. This feature delays the start-up of the heating, depending on how warm the room temperature is at the time when the central heating is due to come on.
