Hi, 1st post on here.
Im looking to install Evohome into our 3yr old newbuild.
Its a medium size 4 bedroom house with 14 rads in total. The current setup is;
-Glow worm Flexicom 15hx boiler
-Range Tribune HE 180litre tank with 2 heating zone valves (upstairs and downstairs) and hotwater zone valve
-Danfoss TP9000 thermostat for downstairs and hot water (located in the hall)
-Danfoss TP5000 for upstairs located on the landing.
There are 7 rads downstairs and 7 upstairs, 2 of which are towel rad in the bathroom and en-suite.
The evohome kit i have in my shopping basket is as follows;
1 wifi connected thermostat pack - ATP921R3100
1 wall mount - ATF600
1 Hot water kit ATF500DHW
3 Radiator multizone kits - HR924UK (so 12 HR92's in total)
I plan on running the small radiator in the utility uncontrolled as well as the one in the hall but use the main panel as the thermostat in the hall, then link the 2 HR92's on the rads in the open plan kitchen diner as 1 zone. This will mean all rooms apart from the utility are zoned one way or another, does this sound ok?
My other question is, as there is currently 2 heating zones, do i need 2 additional BDR91's to control each zone valve or is forcing them to the manual open position and just relying on the BDR91 on the boiler the norm as there is a HR92 on all but 2 rads? was thinking about hot water needing to be pumped around the house everytime 1 rad starts calling or do the pluses outweigh the minuses.
I also plan on adding an Echo dot to the system at a later date for Alexa control.
I've attached floor plans of the house to help
many thanks
James
