Removing Hive, back to Danfoss rewiring guide.

[Spearmint3000]

Hello

The new owners of our house don’t want Hive installed, I’ve managed to acquire a Danfoss FP715SI along with a Danfoss RMT230.

Can anyone give me a quick run through of wiring up the Danfoss from Hive wiring?

Thanks for any help!

The fp715 will go straight in the hive back plate.

When your hive was installed was an existing room thermostat removed?

It replaced the Scottish Power Climote system, which was installed by SP, prior to that it was a Danfoss set up

Ok
Don't know the climote setup.

As said the fp715 will go straight on the hive back plate.
That will work heating and got water without a thermostat.

If you want to add thermostat again
During the hive or climote install your danfoss wires would have been disconnected
Would need a picture of the wiring centre to know where to reconnect.
From memory the the rmt230 is just 2 wire so from programmer to thermostat and back to brown or white on motorised valve depending on set up and assuming your existing wires are still in place

The first thought that comes to mind is "so what?".

Its a universal backplate though so any wireless receiver should fit and then fit your clock stat wherever you like. Guessing your wired thermostat wires will be cut short or disappeared so wouldn't mess trying to rewire that.

Top man, thank you so much for your insight!

Phil, Thanks for the advice, pic shows wires (still intact, not cut short) for the thermostat, blue to 4, red to 1 and yellow/red to 2?

yes, looks like they've only been linked out at the stat end
