    Hello,

    Looking to upgrade my underfloor heating system.
    I have a 8 ports manifold with a single pump,thermostatic mixed manual valve.

    I understood that variable speeds pumps are not recommended in the ufh installs.

    I am looking for an electric actuator mixing valve with 4 ports.
    Not sure what ,which or from where,any one here using one,please !?

    Also,i will need some sort of controllers that has the temperature sensor extenally,likely on the pipe rather than build on the controller itself,so that i can set the working parameters based on the return temp of the pipes rather than the room/house temps.

    Thanks

    OK,no replies so i had to go down the DIY route !

    I have managed to get all working perfect,integrated in to my EvoHome controller !

    I can see and set the parameters trough the controller and/or mobile app !
    The pump barely takes few watts of electricity compared with the odler one.
    Changed and installed new flow meters,now i can see whats going with the pipes ,heat and volume.
    Magnetic filters dedicated for underfloor,lets see the mess in few months.

    All items bought from HERE and the pump i had to wait 10 days as none of the local suppliers ever heard about that pump ,i had to teach them about the new features !


    Happy day !
