Zoning CH System

[nichos]

Small bungalow with joint granny flat.

The single Boiler CH system is feeding separate piping for each accommodation & each controlled by its own controller & motorised valve.

The flat's controller is wired & the other is a wireless one.

Both controllers are situated in the main accommodation, but in separate locations one in the bedroom & the other at the other end of the corridor.

What I want to know, if the controllers react to each other's operation, i.e if the operating time selected for the one is overlapping the other's timing when one comes to the end & switches Off what happens to the other's operation.

Difficult to put into words but, the key may lie in the fact that both controllers sense the same ambient temperature being in the same part of the house, while the flat may be cooler or hotter. ............ thanks .....nick

What type of controllers are these? Shouldn't one of them be in the granny flat?

 

[nichos]

They are Honeywell & it should but is this side to adjust, set & run it for the old person.

Can you answer my question?

Are they both programmable thermostats? In which case they should at least operate independently according to their programmed times.

However as both are in the same house, should the main house become very warm causing both thermostats to switch off, the granny flat could end up being cooler than required, or the opposite could occur.

It will be difficult to get a stable balance in temperature between the two zones.

Thanx Jack,

Yes they are, Honeywell.

I will have to keep a regular eye then on the flat's actual temp. state. Much obliged, ..........nick
