So you have an R2 on each of the motorised valves and a room temp sensor which switches them on and off. How do they communicate? Via a Z hub/gateway? I’m not smart system technology savvy but what is Tasmota?

Are you controlling a UFH system? But I guess it’s the same whether it’s UFH or conventional radiators. What Sonoff products are you using?

Sonoff say their external temperature sensor will control the TRV via a gateway. I assume this must be their NS control panel device. Tapo Kasa also advertise the same ability.

No, I don’t have any existing smart devices so no experience with App controls. I did scour the internet for suitable devices and read up on those you mention. Tado is too expensive at £76 a TRV, Evohome again expensive and in my mind is outdated. TP-Link is around the same price so could also...

I'd like to make my central heating smart. Tried Wiser last year but after spending about two weeks talking to their Tech Support trying to get it set up I gave up and returned. The guy eventually admitted there there are some issues with their software/firmware with IoS devices. I've now come...

I've got about 40sq mtrs of 20mm porcelain slabs to lay. What are your recommendations for the cheapest one that will do the job. Richard

I've now worked out the the rads are split into two zones, upstairs and down. The zone valves are controlled by a Heatmiser Wifi neoStats on each floor via the main Heatmister control wiring centre. Which means I'm stuck with the existing system unless I rewire the zone valves to another smart...

Having the same problem. UFH in our new extension but radiators in the original house. Anyone found a solution

So there’s no ‘boost all’ function on the app then?

Our current system consists of TRV's on all rads controlled by a wireless Drayton thermostat programmable controller. We use it in manual mode and only use programmed times when it looks like it's going to be extremely cold over night then we might switch to programmed. I've been looking at the...

A lot of info to digest guys, thanks. The pipes to make the 3 or 4 zones are readily accessible together with mains electric close by. I was thinking about a Smart Plug on each, but can't see a way of linking it to the boiler when heat is required. Totting the costs up and it looks like its...

Due to cost.

We have 17 radiators spread over three floors in our house, so to use something like Wiser TRVs is prohibitive. However, it is possible to divide the system up into 4 heat zones using 2 port valves (or is there a better solution?) controlled say through Wiser smart plugs and then use a...

I had considered this but I can't print what my wife thought about it. The ground floor is virtually open plan with lounge, kitchen and utility all leading off this family room. Plus access to the back garden is via the utility room.

About 18mm at max

Its not exactly a conservatory it's more a family room with a tiled roof running across the back of the house with small bifold and a window facing the patio.

Structural calculations are being done but it's based on the fact that the facing bricks have three vertical holes in them and so I need to get back to the backing concrete block. I missed freediemecurystwin post. He did link to a supplier which do a 200mm long anchor in 316 so that might do me.

Ahh, OK. The link didn't work on your original response and the next thing was a resin link. Great, so I should be ok. My job is to fix a face mounted balustrade to a brick fronted high level patio. The nozzles which go on the resin dispenser how long are they? In a couple of locations the...

My question still remains unanswered. Is ordinary studding ok to use in place the resin anchors bolts?

Toolstation don't do it in 316 but there are several online traders who can supply.
