Once you bind the Evohome Hot Water Kit to the Evohome Controller, the Evohome Controller displays the actual temperature of the stored hot water on the main screen. It also allows you to see the set hot water schedule and override the hot water instantly. Just the same as the heating, you can also control your hot water from your Smart Phone or Tablet using the Total Connect Comfort App.

And figuring out the temperatures that different rooms needed to be at to feel comfortable was something of an issue for the first few days. It’s definitely a more labor-intensive process to figure out the heating requirements of each room and the schedules, and we didn’t get it right for the first few days, leading to some cold evenings and hot nights. Configuration of the TRVs is super flexible, and multiple units can be combined into a single zone. This is particularly handy if you’ve got rooms with multiple radiators. If you’re the sort of household that leaves all the doors open, you’re going to have a problem with temperature bleed between rooms, a particular problem if you’ve rooms or corridors without radiators.The Honeywell Evohome allows you to set schedules for each individual thermostat, so if you know that your bedroom is only used at night, you can set it to be cold during the day, heat up half an hour before you head to bed, and then cool down to your preferred sleeping temperature through the night.

Another thing worth mentioning is that the thermometers aren’t entirely accurate. Depending on the size of the room you may get different actual temperature for the same temperature reading. This isn’t a massive problem, it just means you have to take each temperature measurement with a pinch of salt and adjust each room accordingly. We likedThe latest Honeywell Home Evohome Controller (ATC928G3000) marks the third generation of the Evohome Controller. Equipped with built-in Wi-Fi, it no longer requires the Honeywell Home RFG100 Mobile Access Kit for remote smart control. Your first job is to set a schedule for each zone. A setup wizard helps you, but we found it easier to take each room and control it separately. For example, you may want your bathroom to heat up early so it’s warm when you get up; you can fire up the kitchen a little later, so it’s warm when you get downstairs. For homeowners with radiators, the Honeywell Home Evohome Radiator Controllers provide an excellent option for zoning different areas of your home. Similarly, the HCC80R Underfloor Heating Controller is available for homes with multi-zone underfloor heating systems. There will be times where your schedule doesn’t quite work, such as if you come home early from work. At this point, Evohome is also exceptionally flexible, and you can manually dial up the temperature from the controller, app or by spinning the TRV’s rotating head, and using the integrated screen to see the set temperature.
