I have had a customer who has contacted me asking to look at installing a separate nest thermostat to there underfloor heating.
Currently they say they have 1 thermostat that controls the heating system and another controller controlling the underfloor heating.
They say that the radiators come on even though the the nest is satisfied. Need a site visit but looking for advice from anyone with more knowagable.
I am guessing that the underfloor is like a normal heating zone with a zone valve the nest would control the times and then the boiler firing wire goes to the boiler.
Or is underfloor heating different ?
The customer is looking for his original nest stat to control the radiators and hot water and a new nest stat to control his underfloor heating.
I guess that there are individual stats controlling the different actuator valves and hence the individual rooms.
The nest stat would control the main programming/timer of the underfloor heating and the other room stats control the activators.
The customer says he has a John guest Aura controller
Do the stats and activators go back to the aura controller and does this need to be kept ?
Should there be a time clock that controls the underfloor heating on times that then switches the aura controller ?
I need to do a site visit but looking for a bit of advice things to check for as I haven't done much underfloor heating
Cheers
