An electronic sensor measures room temperature and feeds Time Proportional and Integral (TPI) control logic that cycles the boiler on and off in shorter bursts as the set temperature is approached, reducing overshoot and improving heating efficiency compared to simple on\/off thermostats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for installation in living rooms, hallways and other primary living spaces, the thermostat controls gas, oil and electric boilers via a volt-free 3A contact. The dial sets the target temperature between 5°C and 30°C, and a comfort\/economy toggle allows a pre-set temperature drop (typically 3-4°C) for night-time or away-from-home periods without needing to manually re-adjust the dial. The on\/off switch provides manual override when heating is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silver faceplate measures 105mm wide by 92mm tall and projects 40mm from the wall once mounted. The unit runs on two AA batteries (supplied), with a low-battery indicator on the LCD giving advance warning before replacement is needed. Frost protection automatically activates the boiler if room temperature drops below 5°C, preventing pipe freeze in unoccupied properties or during extended cold spells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Net Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.22\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.23\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.35\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Height (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e92\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e320\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e330\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Height (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e310\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_CHPRSTATDS_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/manual_CHPRSTATD.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is TPI control and how does it improve efficiency?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTime Proportional and Integral control cycles the boiler on and off in shorter bursts as the room approaches the set temperature, rather than running continuously until the target is reached and then switching off.
