Do you happen to know of a way to have a timer and stat per room but
adjust centrally the temperatures - or even just adjust them all up or
down by the same amount?Â* I ask as IMLE one advantage of TRVs and a
single room stat is that if the stat is set lower than usual then
(with a reasonably balanced system) the rooms with the TRVs also
stabilise at a lower temperature than the TRVs would maintain.Â* It's
useful for people who have days when they want the house warm and days
when they want to the house very warm.


Yes and no. I have actually been thinking of replacing all ours with
ethernet equipped Arduinos (not a separate shield) with touch screens
and 1-wire temperature sensors.

Another couple of Arduinos to operate the relay boxes upstairs and
downstairs and probably another one as central controller/webserver.

The idea being that settings, boost, etc. for any room could be brought
up in any other room or PC or phone.



Thanks. Sounds ideal. But my learning curve would very probably exceed
my life expectancy
