The other is that if I'm comfortable in my living room (which also has a
wood-burner) there's no need to keep any of the rest of the house heated
by the boiler. Because I'm not in any of the rest of the house

Wouldn't put the stat in a room with a heat source it's not
controlling. Wood burner makes living room nice and warm, stat is
satisfied and rest of house doesn't get any heat.

But I'm not in any of the rest of the house, Dear Liza.


Go for a smart system, we have Hive and each radiator has a smart valve
except the bathroom. It is possible to heat just one room or as many as
you want and we can do it all using Alexa.


How are the smart-valves powered. Lots of individual batteries?
