About the Nu-Heat System
Once your system has been commissioned it should be fully operational. It will be set up to the design temperatures, but it may need adjustment to suit the preferences of the occupants. See Heat Pump User Guide for details. To initially check that your system is turned on and working please follow these simple steps:
Underfloor heating
Locate the main components of your installation: the heat pump, hot water
cylinder, underfloor heating pump/Optiflo manifold assembly(s), thermostats,
time clocks, underfloor heating wiring box.
Electricity supply
Ensure that the electrical installation is complete and that the heating
system is turned on. The location of the main supply ON/OFF switch may vary
but is often positioned next to the heat pump. There may be additional
switches located at each underfloor heating wiring box, which also need to be
on.
Water supply
Ensure that the water is turned on ready for domestic hot water operation,
check that a high flow of water is available from the cold taps. If there is
poor flow or none at all, check that the stop-cock for the property is fully
open.
Heat pump systems
Key differences between boiler and heat pump systems
Heat pump systems and boiler systems are designed to operate very differently. If you have only previously lived with a boiler system it is useful to know the differences to ensure the heat pump system is set up and operated in the most effective way. The main differences will be in terms of the temperature of the water that the heat source generates. A typical boiler system would produce a constant flow temperature, which could range from 60-80˚C. A heat pump, on the other hand, has a more sophisticated control system that adjusts the flow temperature, typically 30–50˚C, so that exactly the right amount of heat is fed into the heating system to meet the heat loss of the house at the particular outdoor temperature. Another difference is that the boiler would have been oversized so that it could raise the indoor temperature from whatever it happened to be, up to full comfort temperature. A heat pump is sized to match the load at design operating conditions, and so does not have a surplus with which to raise the temperature quickly. These two differences mean that, with a heat pump as the heat source, the heating must be allowed to run constantly, on a ‘tick-over’ basis, rather than switching it on and off as required. The implication of switching the heating off, and then expecting it to recover the house to full comfort temperature is that it will not have sufficient power output, and so will have to call on the immersion heater backup, which is a more expensive method than the heat pump running constantly. Although not recommended for heat pump systems, instructions for programmable thermostats to allow different temperatures to be set at different times, are shown in this guide.
The general principle of operation
SYSTEM OPERATION
With a heat pump system thermostats are supplied to ‘top-limit’ room
temperatures. This means that whilst they are capable of stopping the flow of
heating water to their zone, they cannot raise the room temperature beyond
what the flow rate and flow temperature will allow. If a higher room
temperature is required, adjustments must also be made at the heat pump. When
the thermostat is calling for heat it opens the actuator(s) for that heating
zone, allowing heated water flow to that zone. The heating system pump and
temperature control are managed jointly by the heat pump’s controller and the
room thermostats.
SEASONAL ADJUSTMENTS
Underfloor heating should be left active all year round as it is controlled by
the heat pump controller. See the Heat Pump User Guide for detail of seasonal
adjustments. If you require to turn the heating off (for example when
servicing) always use the main heating isolation switch.
LEAVING THE PROPERTY UNOCCUPIED IN WINTER
Rather than turning the heating system off, it is possible to leave background
heating on as frost protection. Each room/zone has the facility to be set to
frost protection individually, however it is better to use the heat pump
controller to effect frost protection to prevent the controls from
conflicting.
INSTANT HOT WATER
Please see the EnergyMaster HP User Guide for details of instant hot water.
UNDERFLOOR HEATING OPERATION
Your underfloor system is designed for performance and economy. Your property
may have been supplied either with dial thermostats or programmable
thermostats. Each heating zone is controlled by its own wall-mounted
thermostat. Whilst programmable thermostats are offered because customers like
their aesthetics, Nu-Heat strongly recommends that the temperature to which
they top limit should not be varied through the day.
System adjustments
Note that this user guide describes adjustments to the underfloor heating controls. Adjustments to the heat pump controller are covered in the Heat Pump User Guide.
When first setting up the system, it is recommended that all thermostats should be set to the required temperature of 18˚C for bedrooms and 21˚C for other areas. This will allow the heating system performance to be assessed. Use the thermostat to establish whether the room temperatures are being achieved (see the specific section on your thermostat type for information on gauging the current room temperature).
- If the heating is reaching the set temperature, but the room is still not warm enough then the first stage is to increase the thermostat setting. This should be only by 1°C at a time. The system should then be left for a day before assessing the impact of that change. Please note that increasing the temperature will increase the system running cost. If after increasing the thermostat setting the heating is still not warm enough then the heat pump controller settings can be altered. Please see the Heat Pump User Guide for details.
- If the heating is not reaching the set temperature in only a few rooms then the flow rate to those rooms should be increased, as described on page 8. Unless you feel confident in adjusting the flow rates then you should contact your heating engineer, who can investigate the cause of insufficient heat.
- If the heating is not reaching the set temperature in any room then the heat pump controller can be adjusted. Please see the Heat Pump User Guide for details.
If the weather is quite mild when the system is initially set up then further
adjustment may be required at a later date.
Once it has been determined that all rooms are reaching temperature then any
that are desired to be at a lower temperature can be regulated using the room
thermostat.
Adjusting the flow rates
MANIFOLD COMPONENTS
- Flow gauges
- Flow temperature gauge
- Flow adjustment
- Pressure gauge
- Filling/drain off valve
- Actuators
- Manual air vent
- Return temperature gauge
- Main isolating valve (flow)
- Main isolating valve (return)
If additional heat is required in a selected room or room the water flow rate(s) serving these areas can be increased.
To do this:
When the system is operating, turn the thermostat up in that room. Identify
from the pipe markings at the manifold which actuator head(s) serves the zone
you want to change. Note: If the zones are not clearly marked, turn off
all the other room stats. The zone that is operating will be indicated by a
raised button on the top of the actuator (a), and the flow gauge will indicate
a flow reading (b). Please note that the button on the actuator can take up to
3 minutes to respond. Each thermostatically controlled zone may be fed by more
than one pipe – in each zone, all pipes should have equal flow. The underfloor
heating pump (c) should be set to constant pressure mode. Turn the flow gauge
– anti-clockwise for more flow, clockwise for less. The red flow indicator
will drop further the greater the flow rate.
Note: Adjust a little at a time to suit your requirements – after a small
adjustment leaves the system for 24 hours before making any further
adjustment. Increasing the flow to one zone may decrease the flow to others.
There is a limit to how much extra flow can be achieved and if, after
adjusting one or several zones, further action is required the flow
temperature can be increased. Please contact your heating engineer to
investigate. See Heat Pump User Guide for details.

pump returns to normal operation after 10 minutes and the purge program can be
canceled by pressing the button for 3 seconds.
Systems with dial thermostats
CONTROLS
DIAL
To set the maximum temperature, turn the dial to point to the desired
temperature. This is typically 21˚C for most rooms, except bedrooms which
generally require a lower temperature, e.g. 18˚C. It is best to think about
the thermostat as being ‘fine tuning’ for the heating system.
- Nu-Heat recommends against making large adjustments – make any adjustments in small increments, and wait for at least 24 hours to assess the effect.
- It is best not to turn the thermostat down, for example, when a room is not in use – it can take a long time for the heat pump to increase the room temperature again.
- Note that turning the thermostat up very high will not cause the room to reach that temperature – it just means that the heating will reach its maximum capability, uninterrupted.
SLIDE SWITCH
The slide switch serves no useful purpose in heat pump systems. Because there
is no time control associated with the thermostats (timing is controlled by
the heat pump) switch positions 1 and º both put the thermostat into the on
mode where the dial setting will influence the actuator on the manifold.
Position 0 switches the thermostat into frost protection mode.
CHECKING THE ROOM TEMPERATURE
To assess the room temperature, turn the dial until the indicator changes from
red to green (or vice versa) and note where the dial is pointing. Return the
thermostat to the previous setting before making any adjustments.
SENSORS
The heating system must be turned off and electrically isolated before
changing sensor switch settings.
Each thermostat has six sensor operation modes. These can be selected using
switches 1-3 accessible from the back of the thermostat, after removing the
front panel from the wall.
Internal air sensor Uses the built-in air sensor only.
Set switches 1 to 4 OFF
Remote air sensor (if installed): Uses the remote air sensor only.
Set switch 2 ON, switches 1/3/4 OFF
Internal air sensor & floor limiting sensor (if installed): Uses the built-in air sensor but also uses the remote floor sensor to ensure the floor temperature doesn’t exceed a chosen limit. Should the floor temperature be achieved (even if the desired room temperature has not) the heating will turn off.

Systems with neoStat or never
In a heat pump system, it is the heat pump controller that manages time control, but programmable thermostats are often chosen for their aesthetic and ergonomic appeal.
In order to attain the best efficiency for the system, it is strongly recommended that the top-limiting temperature is not varied throughout the day. A programmable room thermostat is both a programmer and a room thermostat. A programmer allows you to set ON and OFF periods to suit your lifestyle. This User Guide explains how to set the thermostat into a non- programmable mode (see pages 20 & 25). Room thermostats need a free flow of air to sense the temperature, so they must not be covered by curtains or blocked by furniture. Nearby electrical appliances or direct sunlight may also prevent the thermostat from working properly.
OPTIONAL CONTROL FROM A SMARTPHONE – Pairing the neoHub (not recommended)
To pair the neoHub with the NetApp, follow these steps:
- Connect the power supply to the neoHub.
- Connect the neoHub to your router with the Ethernet cable provided. The router will automatically assign an IP address to the neoHub, the Link LED will light up once the neoHub has connected to your network.

Setting Non-Programmable Mode
Due to the key differences between heat pumps and boilers, it is strongly
recommended that, for systems with heat pumps, the non-programmable mode is
selected for all thermostats. For systems with neoHub, this mode must be
configured using the NetApp. For systems without neoHub see page 20 for how to
set this mode (Feature 12). The neoStat offers three additional program mode
options; Weekday/Weekend programming, 7-Day programming, and 24-Hour
programming. These modes are not recommended for use with heat pumps.

Note: The keypad lock indicator is only displayed when the lock is active.
Unlocking the neoStat
To unlock the neoStat press 3 once. The display will show 00:00 and you will
need to enter the four-digit pin number you set previously.
- Use the and keys to enter the first two digits
- Use the and keys to enter the second two digits
The display will unlock and return to the main screen.
Frost mode
1 Use the < / > keys to scroll to the POWER icon. The FROST icon will toggle
ON/OFF each time is pressed.
In this mode, the neoStat will display the frost icon and will only turn the
heating ON should the room temperature drop below the set frost temperature
(see opposite). If the heating is turned ON whilst in frost mode, the flame
symbol will be displayed.
To cancel the frost protect mode, navigate to the POWER button again and press
3.
Note that the heat pump controller has a frost protection mode, and it is
better to use this if frost protection is required, to prevent the controls
from conflicting.
To change the frost setting temperature, see the Feature Table on page 29.
Power ON/OFF
The heating is indicated ON when the flame icon is displayed. When the flame
icon is absent, there is no requirement for heating to achieve the set
temperature but the neoStat remains active.
- To turn the neoStat off completely, scroll to the POWER icon and hold the 3 key for approximately 4 seconds until the display goes blank.
The display and heating output will be turned OFF. To turn the thermostat back ON, press the keys once.
Holiday
Note that the heat pump controller also has HOLIDAY mode. It is recommended
that HOLIDAY mode is set on the heat pump controller, not via room
thermostats. In thermostat mode, the HOLIDAY function reduces the set
temperature in your home to the frost protection temperature setting (see
opposite). In time clock mode, the holiday function maintains the timed output
as OFF. The thermostat will maintain this setting for the duration of the
holiday and will then automatically return to the program mode on your return.
- Use the < / > keys to scroll to holiday and press
- Using the keys enter the number of days holiday
- Press to confirm settings
Note: A holiday period does not start until 00:00 the next day. For example, if you set a holiday period on Friday for 2 days, Saturday will be counted as the first day and the thermostat will revert back to the programmed schedule at 00:00 on Monday. To cancel, repeat these steps but reduce the Holiday duration to 00 days.
