An Introduction
Override mode is used to temporarily modify the temperatures or on/off state of a zone.
The system will automatically restore the previous mode and schedule once the Override has expired.
How to override the system
Override from the app
To override a single zone from the app:
- From the My House page, click on the zone you wish to Override.
- Change the mode to Override.
- Select the temperature you want to Override the zone to. This can be up or down, and so can be used to bring the heating on at a different time of day or to turn it off earlier than usual.
- Select the duration of the Override.
- The Override will start immediately.

To check how long is left of the override:
- From the My House page, click on the zone you have Overridden.
- The Override duration will have counted down since the Override began and will display the time remaining.
Edit an Override
If the Override you have setup no longer suits your needs, you can edit the time and temperature of the Ovveride by:
- From the My House page, clicking on the zone you have Overridden.
- Click on either the time or temperature to change the setting.
- The Override will update with the new setting.
Stop an Override
If you want to stop the Override before it has reached its set end point:
- From the My House page, click on the zone you wish to cancel the Override of.
- In the Quick Actions bar at the bottom of the page, click on 'Stop Override'.
- Click 'Stop'.

The zone will revert to the mode and schedule active before the Override was placed.
It is also possible to override one or more zones at the same time from the My House page, for more information see the My House page chapter. check_me
Override from the device
In many of your zones the devices for that zone will have physical controls you can use to adjust the heating, such as the buttons on a Radiator Valve. Based on the settings you have chosen for in that Zone's Setup page, you may be able to set an Override without having to use the app.
