Hi All
I would like to put a 2-port zone valve on the upstairs branch of my heating system, controlled by a room stat in the bedroom. The reason for this is, the upstairs gets hotter a lot quicker than the down stairs, we’ve tried having the system balanced All rads have TRV’s except the upstairs & downstairs bathrooms, which have been left as bypass, both rads are first in line on their relative branches and there is a room stat in the living room.
From the boiler (Halstead ace high Combi) the pipes are teed to upstairs and downstairs branches on both flow and return. What I’m proposing is to fit a zone valve on the upstairs branch supply and a room stat in the master bedroom. The power for the valve would be on the same supply as the boiler, so if the boiler is switched off at the mains both supplies are isolated. Can anyone see any probs with this idea or offer any advice on how to fit.
