I did try to avoid hosted models but I'm less worried about Honeywell starting charging than other vendors. Heat Genius will work NAT via firewall, etc but they're looking at moving to a "call home" hosted model where the controller will create an outbound connection to a website. In...

Thanks Simon. My pump is starting to get noticeably more noisy so I think it's on its way out, I think I will add a Grundfos Alpha to the upgrade which finally looks as though it's going to happen this month. I've pretty much given up on Danfoss although I notice that they've just updated...

still never took this forward as there are reported issues with the z-wave compatibility of the Danfoss thermostats. Latest from Danfoss is:- "I regret that a decision has not been taken to introduce this product to the U.K. market. We are not currently providing support for this...

Got the manual thanks, disconnected the right connections...doesn't explain the PCB logic in the manual and just wondered what thoughts were on best way to run it. I know they tell you to leave it on, but I'm away for a week at a time sometimes, other times I'm the only one in house so don't...

Currently my boilermate has the hot water linked with no control, I'm going to change this as I'm not at home for days at a time sometimes. When I am around I wondered if it's worth closing the water connection only when the heating is on to have hot water for shower in the morning- tepid/...

If I go for Danfoss I'l wait for the Connect... it's the Z-wave that makes it worth the extra for me. Just noticed there is a Lightwave RF product out which has boiler interlock, web interface, etc... Being Lightwave B&Q, Maplin, etc are starting to stock it:-...

and the official reply from Danfoss... "The Danfoss Living connect system dies not currently feature a boiler interlock and is not currently being sold in the U.K. by Danfoss. We expect to introduce the system to the U.K. market in October and when we do so it will feature a boiler interlock."

Strangely enough, plumbnation:- " Many thanks for your order. Unfortunately due to a administration error the product on your order has been released onto our website by mistake. As the product is not yet available in the market place I will have to issue a full refund. Sorry for the...

I'm still reading up on the Danfoss but the "Boiler Relay" does seem to be an interlock... http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Heating/AutoGen/29716_32988/ as does the Hydronic http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Heating/AutoGen/26278_28355/ Using that it appears you can set demand based on one room, or...

thanks for all the replies. I'd seen a couple of mentions of the new Danfoss TRV's but now I look at them I realise they're actually Z-wave which would let me adjust them remotely. Danfoss link looks like it can be the interlock by adding relays but prive is around £450... struggling a bit...

Thinking of upgrading CH to add digital wireless TRV's to give more control/ economy. System has 15 radiators all with traditional Danfoss TRV except hall which is bypass (4 bed, 3 public room in there). The two options I'm considering are:- 1) Pegler i-Temp Terriers TRV's coupled...
