Looking for a quick bit of advice since I'm trying to wrap my head around what work I need done.
Right now I have an old conventional boiler that heats my hot water tank. The water tank has manual open/shut valve so that I can only heat the water tank and not the heating. I'm replacing this boiler and I'll be getting Evohome installed with smart TRVs. My understanding is that if I just get the base Evohome unit and TRVs I'll be able to control the heat zones but never the water independently. If I wanted to just heat water and not turn on the heat with this setup I will need to manually adjust the valve to disable heating every time.
Am I correct in saying to control water independently of heat using Evohome I will need two things:
Is that all I need to be able to "boost" the hot water without turning rads on?

- Evohome hot water kit
- A motorised valve instead of the manual valve so that evohome can control this using the kit above
Is that all I need to be able to "boost" the hot water without turning rads on?
