It monitors ambient temperature using an electronic sensor and switches heating on when the room drops towards freezing, then cuts power once the set point is reached. The thermostat offers a temperature range of -5°C to 30°C, allowing it to function both as a frost guard and as a basic heating controller in occupied spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounted on a standard UK single-gang back box, the Choice Plus controls heating loads up to 10A at 240V AC, which covers most domestic boilers, electric heaters, and underfloor heating systems. The tamper-resistant cover secures with a security Torx screw, preventing unauthorised adjustment in rental properties, shared spaces, or commercial settings. The white finish blends into most wall colours without drawing attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermostat allows temperature swing adjustment between 0.5°C and 1°C, controlling how much the room temperature can drop below the set point before the heating activates, and how far above it must rise before switching off. A tighter 0.5°C swing keeps room temperature more stable but may cycle the heating more frequently, while a 1°C swing reduces cycling at the cost of slightly wider temperature variation. The electronic sensor responds faster than traditional bimetal strip thermostats, improving efficiency in spaces that experience rapid temperature changes.\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\u003e0.19\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Gross Weight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Length (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46\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\u003e250\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuter Width (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e285\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_CHPRSTATF_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_CHPRSTATF.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat temperature does frost protection activate at?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermostat can be set anywhere between -5°C and 30°C.
