First, the problem.
The coldest room in the house is the lounge but the radiator without the TRV is in the hall.
We don't always want to heat the lounge, but when we do we can overheat the hall (and consequently the upstairs) especially if the wood burner in the kitchen/dining/living area is chucking heat into the hall as well.
The thermostat is wireless so we can move it with us into the room we are using at the time, and possibly shut off the other radiators.
So ideally we could do with a TRV in the hall.
However this would mean that all radiators have TRVs.
Now some Googling says this is O.K. and some says it is not.
I am thinking that if we have a twin pipe system (where there is a flow and return pipe across which the radiators connect) or if we have a single pipe system with the radiators all teed off for flow and return then there should probably be enough water in the pipework to flow round and through the boiler without overheating.
The house is a 1930s three bedroom semi.
So is it safe to TRV everything?
Or should I take a TRV off one of the bathroom radiators?
