At the moment when the CH pumps on the whole of the system heats up all the rads bar 1 have Thermostats on them and the main wireless thermostat's in the hall.
It's been suggested that as I'm disabled and therefore home each and every day it may be worth my while fitting valves to isolate the upstairs during the day.
Downstairs there are 3 rads one of which is the one that's always on, no thermostatic valve.
Question is, as both the pipes to the upper floors are easily located and it would be simple to add valves. do I need a valve on both the 'out' & 'return' or just 1.
As to the valve control does it have to be to a timer or will a simple on/off switch do?
WE've been very badly ripped off by our builder so the budget is very, very low.
Thanks
