My understanding is that in this case the owner wants to be able to heat all rooms minimally when they're not there, but dial up specific rooms which have a higher heating load when they are in the house. Doing that using my system (and I guess yours) would mean manually messing around with the balancing valves to each circuit each time they arrive/leave. But I agree, they should forego that requirement as I think the saving in just leaving the HP in frost protection heating only while they're away will be much more significant, they just need to figure out how to get it out of that mode a few days before they arrive remotely.Got rid of all the zones on the underfloor/around the house and use weather compensation.
Based on my reading/watching of heat geek etc., I think this is a bad idea and can work out more expensive. For two reasonsbut dial up specific rooms which have a higher heating load when they are in the house.
I would rephrase this as the symptom, not the issue.The issue is mainly
1. Original cottage seems much colder when there than extension even though all thermostats set to same temp
Longer term, they need to learn how to operate a HP correctly. They are different systems that can both do the same job. I would follow the advice of @Buddyboy above and learn from Heatgeek website and videosA regular boiler would have been better for their needs I’m guessing
