    hi

    I have 3 motorised valves in my hot press upstairs. 2 thermostats, one downstairs and one upstairs. However my heating will only power on and off. If I want upstairs heating on only I have to turn down a thermostat.

    There is no wiring at the panel/ power switch. Is it a big job to run wires to make my house a 3 zone system. Or can there some new tech or wireless systems out there. House is 2 storey and built in 2007.

    Thanks

    It be more cost effective to get cables back to the hot press and install a New 3 channel programmer where the old timer is.
    There is a wireless system that could be installed depending on the house but expected that to cost a bit depending on the house.
    Unfortunately you don't qualify for the heating controls grant as your house was built after 2006.
    It be definitely be worth installing the 3 channel programmer and getting wires back to the hot press.

    I have power from thermostats to the hot press, because the motorised valves work when i turn down the stats. But don't seem to have enough cables at the point where my controls are . Just think there is 2 or 3 cables isnthat enough?? Or should there be more to connect a 3 zone control.
