Look at the Honeywell Evohome system

The site exists, but not with the www.


I had a quick look, thanks, but that's overkill for me. And thanks to
the others regarding isolating/regulating.

John Rumm used his keyboard to write :
However I just found this:

https://www.vaillant.co.uk/downloads...ons-261442.pdf

In its description it says:


John - I am reading that as suggesting it would provide a single box
solution for my being able to split my CH and HW temperatures. Do you
agree?

The quick look I gave it appeared to suggest that. What I am not sure of
is how you would set the various parameters without also having some
kind of controller in there... What timer/programmer have you currently
got?

Just a basic electronic one, with battery backup, with an override
until next action, on for one hour when off on both CH and HW.

If it will work, the intelligence for setting it has to be in the
boiler itself, so it must signal the HW demand back to the boiler, via
the ebus. The boiler does have ebus terminals. It also has terminals
for the NTC outdoor sensor - Do you happen to know whether the NTC is a
10K or 100K?

The manual for the boiler is here -

It has rather a lot of settings in there, monitoring options and fault
codes. Unfortunately I cannot find any mention of suitable extra
controls and options at all. As you suggested, there is no 'big
picture'.

I *think* its 10K, but I am by no means sure.

On mine all those kids of things can be set from the VR470, but I could
not do it from the boiler's internal display / interface alone. Hence
the suspicion that you would also need something like the VR350 to give
you the access to the settings...

(alternatively there is I believe PC software available to talk to the
eBus for configuration and reading current state etc - so you could
possibly "configure and forget" it that way).
