Hard-wired heating controls provide a permanent cabled connection between thermostats, wiring centres, actuators and other system components. They are often selected for new-build and major renovation projects where control cabling can be installed before walls and floors are finished.
A wired system can provide dependable room-by-room or zone control without reliance on radio communication or thermostat batteries. The final arrangement will depend on the number of zones, heating system, actuator type and required boiler or pump interlocks.
Electrical design and installation should be completed by a suitably competent person. Cable routes, wiring-centre position and future access should be considered alongside the plumbing layout.
Explore the hard-wired controls below and match them with compatible thermostats, manifold actuators, UFH manifolds and pump control packs. You may also find the related manifold actuators and UFH manifolds useful when completing the system.
