Additional heating zone

So 


I’ve to add a new zone into an existing heating system.


which currently has a 3 channel programmer

- Hot water

- House heating

- UFH


now I was gonna put a new 4 channel programmer in with a Timeguard TRT037N, wireless stat for the new zone


Am I right that to make this work, I’ll take a permanent Live & Neutral to my new receiver, also take a Channel Live and put into the Common terminal on the receiver with the outgoing onto the brown of my valve?

  • The TRT037N appears to be a programmable thermostat - so why the need for an extra channel from a programmer?


    What's the motorized valve arrangements? I'm guessing a simple 2-port spring return for the new zone (and similar for the existing zones) - but there are other possibilities that would make things rather different. (I have a long dislike of 3-port valves but some plumbers seem to like them).


    I guess you'd also need the microswitch output from the valve to trigger the boiler (in parallel with all the other zones) - which you probably knew anyway, but as you hadn't mentioned it I thought it best to check.
