Floor heating actuator recommendations

paulsh94

Hi everyone! I'm in over my head trying to replace the actuator and thermostats for my place. I have four pumps and would like to replace the actuators [1] and thermostat sender [2] and receivers [3]. I am hoping to get some suggestions on how to approach this from a compatibility perspective. The end-goal would be to have something more digital (e.g. have a display) and optionally an app (though I'm somewhat concerned about WiFi being a dependency of heating).

Your controller appears to be capable of operating several thermostat zones. Most wireless thermostats are set up to operate a single zone with a single relay at the boiler for single zone systems. The Conrad brand is one of the few that offer the ability to wirelessly connect several zones and operate several actuators. Have you looked into other Conrad thermostats that are WiFi compatible? In most cases, Smart technology that requires a Wifi signal to operate via a smartphone or tablet, will operate properly without a WiFi signal. only the remote smartphone/tablet features will be disabled if there is a Wifi outage. The standard features that operate the wireless controls from the thermostat to the receiver are unaffected.

I would need to do more research but this may work with your existing controller and actuators https://www.conrad.com/p/sygonix-wireless-indoor-thermostat-flush-mount-7-day-mode-5-up-to-35-c-2250410. check with Conrad tech support.
