Individual Room Boost Request
Hey,
Would it be possible to implement a solution, where heating for an individual room only could be boosted?
Currently, this is missing from the app, as you can only hit a button to boost all rooms at once and then you have to untick the ones that you are not interested in. Which is a bit cumbersome.
The only tweak I would propose is that you have two boost modes in the app:
Manual Boost Mode- You have a boost button for each individual room, so if you press it once the system will go into a boost mode for a specific period of time for that room only. In this mode, it will not care about the room temperature, it will just keep on heating the room for whatever the specified boost duration is. You could have a parameter in the app to specify the default duration for the boost, so users could have some flexibility in setting this up.
Independent Boost Mode - In this option, if you have any rooms that are operating independently (i.e. don't request heat from the boiler directly) - you could tick in the room schedule any periods throughout the day that would trigger an independent boost. So in this case, the room will temporarily be able to call the boiler for heat directly and to the required room temperature setpoint. Once out of that scheduled boost mode, the room will revert back to an independent mode.
As an example, you may have a bathroom that sits at a lower temperature most of the time and is working perfectly in an independent mode but there could be a period, where you would like for that room to quickly get up to a higher scheduled temperature setpoint. With an 'independent boost mode', the room would be able to temporarily call boiler for heat, so it can quickly get up to that setpoint.
