Did anyone come up with an easy solution to this?
I don't have any energy monitoring currently and would like to invest in one rather than go down the smart meter route.

Combi I take it? Hope it all goes well.
What boiler did you end up going for?
Good old fashioned way of a Gate Valve cracked open 3/4 of a turn is the best thing IMO, then remove the top.
There's apparently a work around on the Plus System boilers - although i've never implemented it myself. How are you changing the set point using eBus? Some external device I assume.
'Vaillant HW...
Does it work OK?
At some point i'll probably be replacing my boiler with a Vaillant and wondered if it's worth the extra hassle.
Did you manage to get it to differentiate between CH and HW like...
What you using to do that out of interest? a VR33?
Isn't that the main idea behind it though? Looking at the Slides on the beta, that seems to be one of the main reasonings.
Because tbh, I rarely suffered from overshoots before.
Partial works very well for me too, although not sure if it's actually saved me any money....
Is it a Greenstar CDI? If it is you’ll need some new electrodes fitted by a gas safe engineer and probably a service
Anyone managed to connect Evohome to Somfy Tahoma?
Notifications when a zone isn't heating correctly after say 1/2 hour or so.
Sounds like the boiler isn't working....at a wild guess if it's a condensing boiler and your somewhere chilly is it possible the condensate will have frozen up?
Should be a feature on EvoHome. to...
I actually found Cold Weather Boost quite useful yesterday - I've set it to a differential of 18oc. When temps here plummeted here yesterday to below 0oc i've got a couple of rooms that feel cooler....
Use a custom Quick Action schedule and not apply it to the zones you don't want to. For instance I use that feature for Summer, setting all zones to 15oc bar my bathrooms then I can override my Towel...
As the HR92 is acting as an Actuator for the zone.
Can confirm that the new update is on the latest controllers being shipped out. Fitted a system today and it has the new update :)
Sorry yes, I meant 5v. TBH i've never really paid much attention to the voltage of the controller :rolleyes:
I usually locate the transformer remotely, and just use the twin and earth to supply 12v to the backplate. Usually stick the transformer in the airing cupboard or something with the wiring centre.
That's great, just wanted to know when my customers my be getting it! I'd seen a newly packaged EvoHome stating it had the new features but a number of customers hadn't got the update so that makes...
Fit two HR92s :rolleyes:
When does the Beta go to Public Release, or has it already?
The vented section is the store only, the HW is supplied by mains pressure that runs through a coil.
Only want round it would be to fit a new vented cylinder like I assume you have now.
Isn’t going to be any different for a thermal store? It’s still mains pressure for the HW...
They’re just a bad idea IMO, ripped so many out over the years. I’d have a combi before a thermal store.
You'd be better with an Unvented HW cylinder than a thermal store, especially if you've only got one heat source. You'd have to heat the store to a high temperature, for longer periods than you do...
