Wiring diagram

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
Anyone out there with a great mind for heating systems, care to draw me a wiring diagram ?


There is a

-warm flow oil boiler 

-Immersion 

-pipe stat 

-UFH Valve

-Manifold(8 zones)

-Hot water valve

-Hot water circulation 

-Towel warmer valve (stat is what’s on the towel rail)

-Upstairs heating valve

-2 x 2 channel Honeywell programmer

-1x 1 channel Honeywell programmer

-1x stat for upstairs radiators

-stat for each ufh zone 


Any advice on what I can use to get this all linked together, currently looking at S plan but I feel someone with experience with similar system  may give some better guidance

    Traditionally the towel radiator was connected to the hot water cylinder flow and return, so that it could be used all year without firing the heating circuits up or having any separate controls, based on the assumption that the hot water will be turned on at times that you want to use the towels that are warming on the radiator.


    Personally though I just connected ours to the heating circuit without a thermostatic radiator valve on it , just a simple chrome hand valve.


    I do not really see how having wired as a separate zone with its own two port valve, separate pipework, time clock and thermostat is going to increase efficiency much.
