Hi Guys,
Sorry for making my first post quite a big one, but I've been searching for options for hours yesterday, and another couple of hours today, and can't find a solution to fit my plans.
I'm looking for a way to change my current central heating system into a 4 zone system. I currently have a combi boiler, with 1 zone, with trv's on all rads except the bathroom, and the myson space heater in the kitchen.
I'm looking for a way to control the downstairs together as 1 zone, with 1 stat/programmer, which will operate 3 rads and the space heater.
I then want each of the 3 bedrooms to be 1 zone each, each with its own stat/programmer, and 1 rad in each.
I'm not sure what to do with the bathroom?
I've been looking at smart heating controls, such as the honeywell evo home, which almost fits the bill, except this seems to use thermostatic rad valves, whereas i want the temp sensor to be in the form of a wall controller for each zone. Is there a way of doing this using smart home automation type controls.
Or alternatively, is it possible to use a manifold like in an underfloor system, and just have a programmable stat/timer in each zone.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Regards
Leon
 
I was going to suggest the evohome or like you say a manifold system. The manifold system would be expensive if not putting a new system in.
I'm sure evohome you can control remotely as well
 
Hi
Thanks for taking the time to get back to me. The evohome looks almost perfect, but i want to try and have rad valves that have a remote stat and timer like the homematic wireless room thermostat and radiator drive set

i thought about just installing these in the bedrooms then leaving the rest of the system as is, but that means i could only have the bedrooms on when the downstairs is on. has anybody used these. do they have any type of output that i could use to fire the combi
regards
Leon
