Honeywell Evohome hot water control for new boiler

View the thread, titled "Honeywell Evohome hot water control for new boiler" which is posted in Boiler Advice Forum on UK Plumbers Forums.

Looking for a quick bit of advice since I'm trying to wrap my head around what work I need done.

Right now I have an old conventional boiler that heats my hot water tank. The water tank has manual open/shut valve so that I can only heat the water tank and not the heating. I'm replacing this boiler and I'll be getting Evohome installed with smart TRVs. My understanding is that if I just get the base Evohome unit and TRVs I'll be able to control the heat zones but never the water independently. If I wanted to just heat water and not turn on the heat with this setup I will need to manually adjust the valve to disable heating every time.

Am I correct in saying to control water independently of heat using Evohome I will need two things:
  • Evohome hot water kit
  • A motorised valve instead of the manual valve so that evohome can control this using the kit above

Is that all I need to be able to "boost" the hot water without turning rads on?
