trv useage in single loop

Hi,
7 room house on single loop forced hot water with concrete floors. Rooms 4 and 5 in the loop receive lots of sun during day. Original layout was done with to much base board in rooms 1,2, and 3. Will remove some fin linear footage in 1,2, and 3. However want to use TRVs with 1/2" bypass pipe in 4 and 5. approx. 30 linear feet total. When TRVs bypass will pressure and flow problems occurr? Thanks, Tom

KOVM
try a danfoss KOVM on the line, it will allow water to flow through baseboard when heat is required and divert it to the bypass line when room is satisfied.0
