It's a Y plan system but with no room stat, relying on thermostatic
rad valves and the boiler stat for CH. Simple and seems to work fairly
well, all be it not very 'adjustable' (but she rarely has the need to
adjust it it seems).

One way to stop the Mrs fiddling with the room stat is to not have
one. ;-)

We don't have one either, but then we don't have CH ...



Mad setup to have no room stat.

There are effectively stats in every room?

no, TRVs are not equivalent to room stats. We must have been over and over that on here.

You might have been but I haven't.

Ignoring the binary / analogue action, what is the (functional /
thermal control) differences between a thermostatic rad valve and a
room stat / room? And we are only talking about the ability to manage
the temperature in the room, nothing else / irreverent thanks.

This should be funny ...

It seems to me an old CH system that requires at least one radiator
without a TRV is not particularly funny - unlike, say, a know-it-all who
has never heard of such systems (albeit the latter may of course really
be an occasion for regret, especially if it arises from a traumatic
brain injury caused by DIY).
