British Gas Wireless Receiver with Hive

Apr 17, 2020 Last reply: 6 years ago 3 Replies

I have mislaid my Instruction leaflet for my WR1. The red alarm light in on and the Drayton Motorised Valve is stuck in the Hot Water position. As a result I have Hot Water but no heating. The Hive Thermostat is showing the correct indications sand these are transmitted to the box fixed outside the airing cupboard as shown by the appropriate green lights. The WR1 is inside the airing cupboard and does not use batteries - it is mains connected. I would like to get an instruction leaflet so I can try resetting the unit to clear the red alarm light. I think I've done it once before but it was a long time ago.


Have you actually tried googling direct for the manual? IME almost all modern stuff has manuals online.

He is posting via the HomeOwnersHub.

So the chances are slim.

If you have a Hive system why have you got a WR1? The Hive replaces it.

If the Hive was a retrofit then the WR1 reciever contacts should have been shorted out or the box removed.
