Question on heating.
All my house radiators are on a wireless thermostat, which floats around the ground floor of the house - it doesn't have the range to go anywhere further afield.
We just had underfloor heating put in on the ground floor, which is on a separate thermostat.
Result - the radiator stat always thinks its nice and warm because of the underfloor heating, so doesn't ever turn on. Our whole house is now freezing apart from the ground floor. Unless I ramp the temperature on it (to get it to heat to above the floor stat), but then the house gets absolutely boiling as the radiator stat is set so hot to still be on even when the floors have warmed up.
Anyone got any experience / ideas? I imagine a longer range thermostat for the rads is the most likely change.
