How do you....
« on: December 09, 2011, 06:22:30 PM »
Dis-able the radiator heating side of the central heating? rubschin:

I'm getting sick and tired of this game now, and patience is wearing thin.
Every piggin' time the temperature drops below 10c, it's claimed, that "it's freezing", ::) ) IS IT BOLLOX LIKE  Banghead ) and the time switch box thing is being over ridden, always when I'm out. evil:

Comes back in this evening, and it's like walking into a bastard blast furnace on overtime ffs. cussing:

I need to sabotage the bloody thing without compromising the hot water side. eveilgrin:

Need to do summat about getting all the bastard lights to turn themselves off too, as piggin'' humanoids around here seem totally and utterly incapable. They don't seem to give a toss either, which is always the case when some other soft daft tit is paying the disgusting bills I suppose.

DS top tip:

No. 1 son had a similar problem with thermostat abuse by his other half.

Solution, get a second thermostat hidden on top of the bookshelf, set to 20 degrees and wired in line with the one on the wall.

Twiddle as much as you like with the one on the wall but the heating never goes above 20. (or 10 in your case) :thumbsup:

You could do the same with a second timeswitch I suppose, so it can't be turned on all the time either.

What a most delightfully cunning little chap. :thumbsup:
I like him already! lol:

The problem now though, is just how the hell do I get someone 'round to survey the situation, then actually carry the task out without raising suspicion?
I have 3 Miss bloody piggin' Marples watching my every move you know...and you wonder why I spend so much time out and up 'me 'ill'? ::)

As long as you haven't already mentioned it to them then you have the perfect excuse. You think there may be a problem with the thermostat as the heating keeps coming on when it isn't needed.

New one fitted earlier this year.
This lot would sniff a rat without a shadow of a doubt, 'cus they are well used to me ranting about the tropical ambience of this place.
The thermostat is up and down like a piggin' brides nightie.

I need to tie up...so to speak.... a 'man' that can when they are all out. Trouble is, getting 'a man' at short notice is another problem in itself.

S'pose I could just twat the boiler instead and make do with boiling water on the stove? rubschin:

Not a combi btw, in response to the earlier question.
