Hello everybody,
I have another newbie question. I would like to control a few radiators throguh thermostatic valves. What are the best options to use in conjunction with OpenHAB in terms of hardware?

I have tested it only on Chrome (desktop), F…

My house is quite typical of UK houses, where I have a boiler, and one or more radiators in each room. The boiler is on/off only, and has a single thermostat, usually located in the worst possible room in the house. You then end up with a single thermostat controlling the temperature of the whole house. I had basic thermostatic valves on each radiator, but the overal…

@vzorglub : thank you for the answer, I checked out this solution but in case of black-out or lack of wi-fi I would have no heating!
