Having ruled out underfloor heating as a viable option for specific rooms (see Mixed Radiator and Underfloor Heating) I am left with a much simpler system to consider: condensing combi and traditional radiators.
I'm looking for some links/suggestions for selecting a heating control system that will marry with a condensing combi or a condensing combi that already has suitable controller modules.
Most controllers are the usual 7-day (or 5+2) type where the normal pattern is 5 workdays plus weekend heating. Because I work from home a different type of control pattern is required - one that can be switched simply between 'working' usage and 'residential' usage; the latter being pretty much the same as traditional weekend usage. It just happens that work doesn't necessarily take place Mon-Fri - work can be on any day(s). The 'work' usage pattern requires a fewer number of rooms to be heated. What would be really useful is the ability to switch easily from one pattern/profile to the other without having to re-programme each time.
I'm not averse to having one that interfaces to a network if that's the easiest way to set up and manage the profiles. Nor am I averse to having one that incorporates weather compensation.
Any suggestions regarding control systems or combis geared towards this kind of operation?
Thanks,
Ric
