Only really of use in a kitchen or living area sadly but a great idea

Why not bathroom? Is it because of the air temperature and humidity between the sensor and the floor giving an inaccurate reading? From the way I have read it, the sensor is separate from the thermostat which can still be mounted outside the room so that part of it shouldn't be an issue, unless the sensor isn't waterproof?

Because most bathrooms do not have the thermostat mounted inside the room.

Even if the thermostat was in the room, most bathrooms are not big enough to facilitate it being safely mounted in the correct zone to comply with regs

The thermostat has the sensor built in the bottom of the thermostat so therefore a bathroom is a no go as it's also only rated IP31 which isn't suitable for moisture.

Ok. Thanks for clarifying. I looked at the picture of it and you can't see the sensor so I thought it may be some sort of additional attachment that plugged in to the stat.
