Have a look at a Towerstat RF-BM remote wireless plug-in room thermostat .
This will plug straght into the boiler and save on any wiring.

Confused? you will be :lol: I see what you mean now...cut the 22mm return and take it to the flow on the two piped system. As you say,if all the rads were turned of it would stop the flow totally on the whole system from the boiler, hence the bypass. I've actually connected it up teeing off the 22mm...

Thanks,I get your point about the bypass. Saying that, I thought a one pipe system was that,one pipe flowing around the system with tees off the same pipe to each side of the radiator? I can see the bypass being needed if the flow went through the radiator and back out to the other side ie (the flow...

[quote="marrtin"]I might be tempted to divert the one pipe system through the new radiators. This would ensure that all radiators have the opportunity to receive hot water. If all the new radiators were switched off, the flow around the system ( and through the boiler) would be stopped so ...

Sorry, I didn't explain fully. The two pipe system from the extension ends up at the boiler(combi) in 15mm copper,i proposed to tee into the 22mm pipes at the boiler so it would be after the last return on the one pipe system. I realise a lot of the time you can never tell the outcome until its actu...

Moving combi to another romm

Is it now illegal to move a non condensing boiler to another room?

I heard for any new installation it has to be a condensing boiler even if you already have a decent combi.

Thanks for the reply.

Put a pump on the existing one pipe circuit or the new two pipe?

I thought the new circuit would work fine and any problems would be at the one pipe system?

New radiators to my extension

Ihave fitted four new radiators to my extension but the existing system is a one pipe system and we have installed a two pipe system to the new part.

The new pipework will connect close to he boiler,will it work fine?
