Nearing completion of major re-vamp.

UFH on zone one (4 zone manifold)
Original bedroom rad's on zone 2
Now the extra bit - Aditional pipework feedng 2nd bathroom towel rad in
UFH floor area tapped off to a loop in garage for future expansion of
heating.

Originally going to be 2 zones i.e. reds and UFH via 2 x zone valves.
but trying to devise a way of seperating the main rads from the towel rad.
Initial thoughts was another zone valve from the Cyl. stat output on UFH
controller, but advised it would take priority over all other zones.
2nd thought is a 2 way (or is it 3 way?) zone valve on radiator circuit,
but how to control independantly is the dilema.

current 2 zones are on seperate programmers.

Any ideas?

TIA

'Normal' way is to plumb the towel rail in before any of the zone valves,
i.e. it gets hot whenever the boiler runs wether the call is for CH and/or
HW.

Bggr me...
So simple and so obvious!
That would do the trick perfectly.
Thankyou Peter, you have indeed saved me much head scratching.

Do remember to put a TRV on it and ensure that you balance it down, so it
doesn't hog the water.
