Most of the ones I've seen, even ones claiming to be immersion switches are underated and potential fire hazards. But the best solution would be to install a suitable contactor and then you can safely control it with virtually any smart switch.

True, at 13a rating they're at the absolute limit for a 3kw immersion. This item is interesting, din rail mounted relay switch with 16, 32 and greater contacts which has Wi-Fi built in. Its not a current overload or s/c breaker, so would need to be wired from the existing immersion breaker to protect it. The 32a one will more than do for a single element immersion, or a bath/ sink twin one but with no remote control of the bath/sink element changeover. Cheap solution, wire it between the existing switch and its breaker. Put it in a mini din rail box, or If you're competent, you could pop it on the din rail of your main breaker box, or get a sparks to do it.

Hi all,

Big thread. I'm hoping someone can help. I would like a recommendation to upgrade my Immersion Switch, which has on\off and bath\sink, to a switch that I can use with an app or switch on with a timer for an hour.

Thank you.

Correct, 4, 3 and 6 replace 3, 5 and 7 on the EPH. Tge commons on the Climote are not prewired, so link the live to 1, 2 and 5. Your image is too low res to see btw

You already have the 3 zone climote controller from your previous install? you'll just need the extra wireless stat for CH zone 2. If the controller is wired in a new location which is suitable for measuring the temperature of zone 1 (say the hall or lounge), then the internal stat is fine for there, otherwise put it on a wireless stat also. If you're happy with that, go for it, wiring is a diy job, one sim sub is all you need. It's technically not a very well featured sysyem though, more like a 3 zone control timer with app access.

Thank you for getting back to me...
I’ve been away from boards for a little while.
Yesterday I bought a Climote (second hand) and will be hoping to get it installed....

I have an EPH R37-HW. I removed the panel and have the wires terminated as follows:
1-L
2-N
3-HW
5-Main house
7-Extension

I’ve got 2 wall thermostats wired in a box on the other side of the heating zone controller’s wall.

From what I understood - all zones are NO...

Looked at the the Climote...
Am I correct in saying that terminal 3/4 and 6 are the NO once where I have to connect the relevant wires?

Hi deezel and thanks

Yeah cause I looked at the fourth picture in this link:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001245603510.html?spm=2114.12010615.8148356.2.639d2562VpRyQl

But in the specifications it does say M30 1.5

Sorry for my wrong wording regarding valve and controller; thanks for the correction, appreciated.

Oh and is Saswell (also shops on Aliexpress selling Saswell) and Tuya the same or is it that Saswell just use the Tuya app?

Yes. Start with these. Then virtually any TRV you buy will fit without adaptors.

If you want to replace your rads with new one, you can put these at both ends, the second one acting as the manual valve as the little plastic cap in the picture rotates on the thread to push the pin closed if required to trim the radiator flow and balance the system response. You remove this cap to fit a TRV head. Depending on how old your radiators are, you may not be able to get exact panel size replacements, sizes have changed since the 80's-90's, so the newer sizes will be a bit longer or shorter, requiring extending or cranking of the riser pipes. Heres one on mine I had to do to fit a new twin panel rad replacing a late 80's original. Note the new TRV body from Stevensons.

I may be wrong, maybe Deezel or garo might confirm but
In order to receive the Grant the below works need to be carried out from my understanding:
Installation of a Seven Day Timer and Temperature Control to an Existing Boiler
Installation of Zonal Control over at least two zones in the home (heating and hot water)
Installation of Time and Temperature Control of electric immersion
Installation of a Boiler Interlock
The installation / modification to include an additional Heating Zone OR The installation of Thermostatic Radiator Valves on at least three radiators but no less than half of all radiators.

How much are you paying for parts plus install? Have you looked at getting it done through Electric Ireland with the SEAI grant?

Note you will need to bind all the devices to the controller. If you are at all technologically minded this is not a difficult task. There are plenty of places you can find instructions.

Note that Honewell Evohome can only control 12 zones so either you will have to pair up your rads in the same zone - so two rads will be slaves to one or two other rads. Or you could leave the two rads open - but that is not recommended.

You do not need additional pipework (manifolds etc.) for the hot water control system but you will need a motorised valve installed to open/close boiler input to the HW. The TRVs control if boiler feeds the rads and the motorised valve controls if boiler feeds HW. Every element can be controlled individually.

Thanks so much for the reply. I have sourced the kit online and it works out cheaper than going to Screw fix. The pairing/ binding part doesn't phase me at all. I'm handy with that stuff. What is important is that I determine what valves to put on the rads so that they will be compatible with the trv heads. Do I have to go with the Honeywell V120-15A valves or are there some generic valves out there that I can use. The plumber will not be providing a complete install, he's simply getting 14 radiators trv - ready by changing the current valves over to trv valves but now I'm worried he might install valves that may not suit my TRVs as he's not doing the full job for me, I'll be putting those on and doing the bind stuff, etc.

I am aware that there can only be 12 zones but I will combine some of the rads on the same zones eg the kitchen has 2 x radiators and the hall has 2.

There's a few issues I can't wrap my head around. Currently the heating system is on/off ie. no real control. This means any time we put our heating on, the water tank will heat up. With the new controller plus 14 TRVs in place, say I switch the boiler on but have all rads off, would this be another way to heat water only? Are there any dangers I need to be aware of with the new system?

The plumber was adament that zoning our house is a big job and didn't recommend it re: the usual 3 x zone system (downstairs/ upstairs/ water). He said there's too much work involved with ripping up floors etc. So this motorised valve you mentioned for the water, is that an easy thing for him or is there pipe work? With the motorised valve installed, what would I need to purchase to get this to 'speak' to the evo home control panel?

He came out to price the job today but hasn't given us the quote yet. He did mention that each radiator would be €30 for valve changeover. He said he has an electrician that can do the relay switch for us.

I asked him about the grant but he said this particular job wouldnt qualify as it doesn't satisfy all the prerequisites required.

The ones in the post previous will do perfectly, you'll just need one per rad, leave the other end on as the lockshield trim, £4.50 instead of £20 per rad.
You say theres no summer valve which implies a single zone, CH and HW combined. With a full TRV fit, you can effectively heat HW on its own by calling the boiler via a sepetate HW relay or module, the TRVs will all be closed. HW will always heat for any TRV call as its obviously open circuit, possibly gravity fed, but you need not worry about a bypass then when all TRVs are closed.
To have CH calls without HW, you will need a motorised valve installed on the HW circuit, with a small bypass on the boiler as now all circuits can be closed
Finally, we're all a bit foolish here, some have it really bad, so you'll fit right in. Evohome is the holy grail for some.

Hi, I'd like to ask a question if I may. I have an oil boiler based heating system with 14 radiators. 1995 build so no zones and no smart controls. Just an on/off/clock timer switch.

I'm looking to install the Honeywell Home evo system with the HR92 TRV on each radiator. I have contacted a plumber as he will have to change the valves on all the radiators so that the trv heads will be compatible. The Honeywell website reccomends these valves are used: https://theevohomeshop.co.uk/radiator-valves/51-honeywell-valencia-vhl120-15a-manual-radiator-valve-with-lockshield-set.html?search_query=Valve&results=49

Is there a cheaper equivalent that I can substitute or do I have to use their ones specifically?

The plumber is not familiar with the evo home system so he's just doing the rad valve changeover. He can provide an electrician to wire in the BDR91 part. Am I foolish to think it's all just plug & play thereafter? Are there any plumbing considerations I need to be concerned with? I feel I am managing the job myself but I'm not sure I'm doing it correctly.

Is it OK to put a trv on every rad or must one rad be left open on the system? Also, there's an additional Hot Water module that's available for the system. Does this need additional pipe work? Currently there's no summer valve on the tank so I'm not sure what control I can achieve with the hot water add-on?

Any advice welcome..

You will only require those valves IF you buy the Tuya TRVs that are designed to clamp to Danfoss RA valve bodies. I don't advise that. What I do advise is to buy Tuya or other brand TRVs that have M30 x 1.5 threaded fittings, then change one valve in each rad to the inexpensive M30 valve body, as little as a fiver each from Stevenson plumbing in Bangor Co. Down. These valves may be a very simple swap for your current rotary type, as both use compression nut and ring on the rad spigot and the riser pipe. Drain, loosen both nuts, pull back old valve from the rad then up from the riser, and if the nut threads match the M30 trv valve bodies, you can just insert them between the old nuts using a bit of PTFE tape. A little more work if you need to use the new valve nuts, ring and rad spigot.
With the Danfoss RA valves you have A lot more fitting.

Does such a thing exist?

What you're looking for is a stat whose API is addressed directly by third party apps, and whose function is independent of an internet connection, i.e, will continue to work if your internet is down, both manually and by direct address from your other smart home interfaces across your internal network. Nest is internet independent in the first instance, and should work internally from your app if you're Wi-Fi is up, though I might be wrong about the latter. Afaik Apple Homekit can connect to device's at local level. I Think more recent versions of Tado are homekit compatible, but Tados own app requires Internet connection to see the stat, and the earlier stats also needs this to function, even manually. As for the other leading brands, I think some are standalone devices also, with the internet and a Wi-Fi connection to their hub or bridge required to enable external app access obviously, and possibly home access. Others might like to comment on this.
As the chain of connection is not always clear, whither via a brand vendor's own server, or directly to the stat by a smart home interface such as Google home or Amazon Alexa, when you use any of these physical devices, or the apps such as SmartThings, or IFTTT, to make changes to your stat settings, you can never tell if the stat vendor (say, Nest or Hive or Tado), needs to be still in business for your hardware to continue to function in the future. Google owns Nest, so I can't see that brand being left without connection, and it's capable of working manually without Wi-Fi, let alone external internet. There have been a few smart devices which have died when their progenitors ceased trading, but that's life in a way, like trying to get spares for a Sanyo microwave or a Rover car.

Tedious and tricky for a DIYer.

As regards the body type, that one is a standard M30 thread by 1.5mm depth. Most manual or smart TRVs will fit straight on retrained by the TRV screw ring. However, the Chinese TRVs you are contemplating seem to be manufactured with Danfoss RA clamp on fittings. You would require Danfoss RA valve bodies for a direct fit, such as these.

While it is possibly to adapt these valve bodies to take M30 x 1.5 TRV heads, I'm not certain if you can get the reverse adaptor, RA TRV heads to the common M30 threaded valve body, so if you buy these heads you will need these valve bodies.
Apart from the cost and difficulty of obtaining and fitting these RA bodies, (they dont have a pipe compression fitting, just a f/m 1/2" pipe thread, requiring a brass adaptor, and your rad spigots will need removing), your'e making your TRV bodies off standard for most other TRV heads, requiring plastic head adaptors if you were to later fit Tado or Wiser or other M30 x 1.5 heads. That would look really ugly, with an M30 TRV to an RA adaptor to a RA valve body to a 1/2" gb-to-compression adaptor to your rising pipe.
There must be plenty of low cost TRVs with the M30 fitting, I'd avoid the ones you're considering which are likely manufactured as an electronic upgrade for existing RA bodied Danfoss installations.

So will they fit on my radiators. I don't know what type of valve I have on my radiators so I attach a pic.
