[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 435864, member: 6969"] Okay, the under floor bit downstairs is irrelevant. concentrate on upstairs. You need to replicate what the UFH controller does, which is actuate the motorised valve for upstairs when ANY of the upstairs room stats calls for heat. Are you saying you have fitted those actuators to a conventional radiator? if so how? Even if they fit, they might open the radiator valve, but won't give any feedback contact to turn on the motorised valve for the radiators. If you have managed to get those actuators to physically operate a radiator valve, then the simplest solution is another "under floor" controller upstairs. It won't know or care that it's actually controlling radiators and will provide all the logic needed. [/QUOTE]
