JohnMo Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 Hi after some assistance, does know of a thermostat that can be installed in a bathroom. The heating is wet UFH. Ideally a wireless one, as would be easier to install. The problem I have is, the thermostat is outside the room and I was going to have a probe through the wall. But we moved the bathroom around and I now have a shower the other side of the wall.
ProDave Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 The probe is usually a thermistor so there is no problem extending the cable, it does not need to be immediately the other side of the wall.
Fly100 Posted October 29, 2021 Posted October 29, 2021 I left my Bathroom free run a bypass so to speak, with a reduced flow rate.Not sure if that helps or complicates the matter fro you.
JohnMo Posted October 29, 2021 Author Posted October 29, 2021 Do you run the UFH all the time, or on a time switch

RHayes Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 Heatmiser Neo do a thermostat system where you can link a wireless battery powered probe. https://heatmisershop.co.uk/heatmiser-wireless-air-sensor/ I beleive you will need a thermostat- https://heatmisershop.co.uk/heatmiser-neostat-v2-programmable-thermostat/ and a neo hub https://heatmisershop.co.uk/homekit-enabled-heatmiser-neohub-gen-2/ There will be cheaper options im sure on other websites and with that Hub you can add extra thermostats to make your whole heating system smart Just a thought from what I have experiance in.
JohnMo Posted October 31, 2021 Author Posted October 31, 2021 Just made a few changes to the way the UFH is working. Did away with the bathroom thermostat all together, the manifold has self balancing actuators, so went for a simplified scheme altogether. Timer to run pump with and without a call for heat, runs for about 14 hours a day. Only have thermostats (simple dial type) in bedrooms now; to keep the bedrooms cooler than the rest of the house. Only one other timer/thermostat to switch of the boiler on/off. Thanks to the contribution on this and many other threads, I've read over the last few days.
