Just finished installing a new Honeywell evohome zone heating system.
Start to finish in a couple of hours.
Set up 5 zones that can be independently heated.
Kit used was the evo home wifi controller boiler switching relay and 6 radio controlled radiator valves.
If you have existing trv's the radio valves replace them in seconds (no wet work lol)
I didn't even need to open the boiler for connecting switching relay. I used the existing programmer/thermostat point and used the switching wires fro that. I did need to spur a mains feed to the relay but as it was directly above a socket I just added a fused spur for the power.
The zone set up and heating scheduling is very easy through the controller as it has wizards.
All in it is more expensive than hive or nest but the zone control gives it far better flexibility. The smart phone apps are good too giving you total control from anywhere. It is also reported as saving up to 40% on heating costs.
