Hi
I have had a smart system installed to control my boiler. This consists of a control unit attached to the boiler, Smart TRV's on all radiators except the living room which has a smart room thermostat (manual valve on living room rad).
My question is, why must I have a manual valve on the rad in the room with the room thermostat? I get that building regs state this but it means that whenever I want to heat, say, just the bathroom, the living room also has to heat up because it has the manual valve, so wasting money.
