hello all.
I have done lots and lots of research and am getting a bit confused now. I will be calling in the professionals but want to understand what I am asking for and what they are telling me so I can ensure it is correct.
I have had new UFH installed using a single zone system the same as the John Guest type.
The rest of house has radiators which run off a combi (ravenheat. yes, yes. i know). The boiler is controlled through a Salus 7 day wireless programmer with the boiler timer on constant.
Now what i would like to do is seperate the systems so i can run each independantly (rads and ufh) with 2 seperate thermostats and programmers. In my head i need to tee the flow from the boiler after the automatic bypass (which i guess i do not currently have. do i need this?), each end of the tee goes to a 2port valve with each 2 port valve is then controlled by a thermostat. Can i reuse the salus for one valve (ie rads) and buy another salus for the other valve (ie ufh)?
In my head it works in principle but do not know enough about the wiring side to be sure if it is possible.
Any help appreciated.
