I'd add a month or 20 to that estimate to avoid too much disappointment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAICT everywhere is still stocking THB23030 / THB2430 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traditional zone actuators are too slow, whereas these Salus ones are much better (faster response time and lower power draw; basically use zero power when open). As I said up thread, if there was an non-autobalancing fast response (i.e. servo driven) actuator available I'd rather go with them Also FWIW I already have auto balancing actuators on my UFH and they work fine there. I broadly don't use zoning, but I do shut off zones when necessary to avoid specific rooms overshooting. Edited July 13 by joth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
