Dear All,
I currently have a conventional boiler with hot water tank, all open systems. CH control is provided by a Honeywell timer and a Honeywell wireless thermostat, which are entirely separate systems. Over the summer the wireless thermostat died and so I'm looking into replacing it with something a little more technologically advanced. What I have settled for is eq-3 MAX! system, which are wireless/digital TRVs which can be controlled by smartphone or computer from another continent if necessary.
My question is....... On my existing system, if the room temperature didn't decrease below the thermostat temperature, during the summer, then the boiler would not light up. With a TRV based setup, I am reliant on the water within the circuit reaching the required temperature, which as I see it, regardless of how hot our summers get, the boiler is going to light up multiple times a day! Is this correct and is this accepted?
Thanks,
Rob
