However, this isnt the case at all. Zone A covers the entire ground floor and has to be on if you're using heating. However, you can opt to turn off Zone B at any time which covers the upstairs. This means that if you choose to use heating during the night to all bedrooms, you will also have the heater running downstairs. However, this is still preferable than having the upstairs area as Zone A cause with tiles on the ground floor, the heating isnt as stiffling when compared with the carpeted areas upstairs.

Re: My buckingham palace - all moved in!!! 214Oct 20, 2009 2:42 pm Should I mention that HE backed into HIS garage door the other day. It's left an almost invisible dint. He thought I didn't see it and was quite mortified when I pointed out that I did. Very flimsy garage doors and I shouldn't speak too soon as on that slope the next time it will be me.

Having a view sure has its benefits Glad to hear the dent is pretty much invisible but of course all things are visible to one who has superpowers Joe, it depends on your certifier but we are noticing the ones we deal with are really cracking down.
