Wiring Worcester & 3rd party Controls to Greenstar Gas Boilers | Worcester Bosch 

Did you ever get an answer to this? Thinking of doing the same I have the diverter valve fitted

This might be a little late but yes you can. You will need to wire it slightly different from the video. Message me if its not too late and you need to know how.

Yes

Got same problem now with mine. Did you sort yours out?

Carms Marshall you still got no reply??

Yeah the hive should work with any modern boiler. All you need too do is find a qualified electrician who knows how too install the hive

Also it might be worth noting that Worcester have there own equivalent too the hive and it's called the Worcester wave hope that helps. It's a very clever bit of kit and easier too install than the hive

Have you worked this out? I'm having exactly the same issue at the moment.

@@colinlees3266 Yes, just unplug the old front panel receiver from the boiler control board and replace with a blanking plate. I didn’t use the water timer functionality, and it now just heats water on demand.

I'm using a heatmiser system that has opentherm . I bought a convertor that supposedly outputs EMS but I cannot get the boiler to fire ! I run two zones and I'm seriously considering a new boiler as I cannot run opentherm with two zones with my existing Worcester combi . Not happy .

@@rajeeb3500 hi, i was wondering if you could guide me, i have a Worcester 8000 system boiler being installed with a megaflo eco plus cylinder. The system will be 2 radiator zones, 1 underfloor heating and 1 hot water. From the little info available online it seems worcester easy control can only work on one zone and only one easycontrol can be fitted on one boiler. This is the only thermostat control that is EMS. I am concerned that any third party thermostat won't be able to modulate the boiler. Did you manage to control the boiler with your opentherm thermostat? Thanks

@@arslaanasif9893 hi, unfortunately I had to give up on trying to get an EMS signal to work. I figured I'd have to settle for a well set up zoned system to create as much efficiency as possible , with the compromise of a traditional on/off call for heat. Hope that helps

Andrew James Did you get anywhere with this? I am wondering the same. Currently looking at getting a Hive to fit to my boiler that doesn't have an existing thermostat. Thanks.

Hi Vicky, please let us know if there was something we can assist you with. Please feel free to call us on 0330 123 9339 if so

Hi Vicky, did you have a query we can assist you with at all?

Got same problem now with mine. Did you sort yours out?

Good morning, The video was designed to highlight how external hard-wired controls are to be fitted to our boilers. The advice here is designed to reinforce to customers how we have designed the boilers to function with third-party controls, as well as providing guidance to installers on how to make these connections correctly. All Worcester-made wireless controls will come with a receiver. The only exception to this is the Bosch CT200 EasyControl which is capable of being made wireless with our new 8000 and 2000 boiler ranges using the RF key kit. This is an optional extra and the EasyControl is not wireless out of the box. As this is the case I would recommend you contact your installers if you do not have a receiver. Any questions you can contact our tech team on 0330 123 3366 😊 - Aiden

I have a green star boiler with a MT10RF receiver that’s integrated into the boiler. How do I access this and wire in the heat link? I really don’t want to have to pay £70+ to get someone round to do it
