There are also two unconditioned zones (an attic and attached garage).
Each zone has its own radiator equipped with a thermostatic valve that is uses a PI controller to modulate water flow through the radiator in order to maintain the zone heating set point. The water through the heating emission system is heated by a gas boiler. Domestic hot water is not included.
