I was wondering what an efficient way of setting up bypass radiators is? I have 9 rads in total, including 2 bathroom towel radiators - the non-bathroom ones are all fitted with a Tado SRV.
My boiler (Vitodens 100-W B1KF) will provide a min output of 3.2kw when heating. So I'm assuming a bypass of some nature is needed?
Firstly what is the difference in setting up a radiator to act as a bypass in these different ways?
1) No Tado SRV fitted, just set to be open (TRV removed)
2) Tado SRV (set to, say, 25 degrees) , but set to be 'independent' from zone controller
3) Standard TRV left to, say, '5' on a scale of 1-6.
I have 2 bathroom towel radiators that dont have a Tado SRV, just always set to low.
Then I have a hallway and kitchen (both on SRV) that I dont really care what temp they hit, should these 2 be set to independent and 25 degrees? Or would this steal heat when its being called for elsewhere?
