Warmup Undertile Heater

[Endulini]

Hi Folks,

The house I am renting has a Warmup Undertile Heater (Model TSAT) installed and I suspect this has been significantly boosting my electricity bills. I can't see any obvious way of turning the thing off on the panel or in the manual

I've wiped all the programs and set all the default temperatures to 5°C but it still displays a temp of 22°C (I'm not sure if this is the set temp or the ambient temp - the manual doesn't really help). Before I pay someone to physically disconnect it is there anything else that's obvious to try?

Thanks

There should be an isolation switch for it.

The fuse may only be for the control system (ie around five amps or less.) The control box should have means of isolation nearby. If not, it was wired by a tosser. As someone else has said there is a fuse and islolation switch somewhere if only on your consumer unit (by the meter) It should be marked. If not you should determine which fuse is for what on all your circuits and mark them up.

There is a slight possiblity it has beeen wired into your ring main (13A plugs circuit). Depends on the size, comes under the heading of extremely bad ideas if so.

We used to have one in a downstairs shower room. To persuade it to stop doing anything, just press the "suitcase" button.

The temperature on the display is the temp being reported by the sensor in the floor, unless you're in setting mode or have just changed program.

Unless the "heating indicators" are lit, it's not doing anything.

Great, thanks for this.

I think it has been wired into the ring main and I can't see an isolation switch for it anywhere, either near the control pad or near the consumer unit.

Check by turning off your ring main then. If so, there will be a fuse switch connector somewhere. About the size of a domestic plug but with a switch and fuse on it instead of the three holes.

Try following the wire from your control box back to it's origin.
