On an interior wall, out of direct sunlight. In the case of forced air type systems, close to the return air in an area that best represents the "average" temp. of the space. In no case, install it near any source of heat (radiant or convective). lc

Why would one need an underfloor heating thermostat?
An underfloor heating thermostat enables one to reach the perfect temperature in the house. It is also perfect for enabling the heating to turn on when the room temperature reaches low numbers.
Why does the thermostat keeps turning on and off?
Because that is its job! A thermostat is a device that measures the temperature of a given space or volume, and turns heating / cooling devices on and off accordingly. The thermostat in your house is designed to turn the heating off when the house is warm and turn it on when the house is cold. The thermostat in your car turns the radiator fan on when the oil / water temperature increases to a level that could be damaging to the engine (if you are stuck in traffic for example)
What is the central heating system inside the house?
Rather than have a coal, gas or electric fire heating one room, central heating is one boiler (gas or electric) heating the whole house. This is done by pumping hot water through pipes that feed several radiators installed in each room and hall way. A thermostat in the hall (for instance) allows the temperature to be controlled overall, with a regulating valve on each radiator for separate room control.
What if your house thermostat has no power?
Since the thermostat controls the heating and cooling systems in your house, neither would be able to function. In other words, you wouldn't be able to get central heating or central air in your house. Most mechanical thermostats do not need power to operate. They are based on the change in shape of a metal strip to open and close a switch. You still need power for pumps etc.
