Another evohome question.

[whistler]

I've had a Honeywell Evohome system running quite satisfactorily for a number of years. The system has 7 zones all of which are controlled by a HR92 valve. However the bathroom has just a basic thermostatic valve, so is not controlled by the Evohome.

My problem is, that as we get the warmer summer weather, I turn the Evohome system off with a simple push of a button on the app. This of course means the bathroom radiator and towel rail always stay cold, as they can't communicate with the Evohome.

As we like to have some heat in the bathroom, particularly for warming towels, I decided to buy an additional HR92 valve for the bathroom, so I could always have this set to a low temperature. However the problem is, that when I hit the off button, it turns off all radiators including the bathroom.

So I need a method of turning off all radiators except the bathroom, but the only way I can see to do this is by reducing the temp on each radiator either by the app or manually on the valve, which is if course not the easiest way to do it.

Selecting economy mode is an option as it reduces all rads by 3 deg, but this is sometimes not enough.

Is there any way to achieve what I am trying to do?

Not a heating engineer but perhaps adding zone valves might help

No, this would not help

You should be able to set up a Quick Action to achieve your desired result

I have tried all the preset quick actions, but none of then achieve the required result.
Is there a way to setup a custom quick actions? I can't see any way of doing this.

All sorted now. I created a custom schedule which included all zones except the bathroom. All other zones set to 5 Deg. The bathroom continues to follow the main schedule. Now we have nice warm dry towels!
