My mom had the unzoned version of this in her old house. It was nice. I have no furnace, so no thermostat except the ones on each a/c. - mafic Jun 3, 08:55 7
- I have forced hot air and electric now. I can't even imagine how nice life would be with competent heat. -- nm - amanda Jun 3, 08:57 6
  - I have excellent cooling, but only a wood stove and inefficient reverse cycle a/c heat (that we never use). I want to put a system in the ceiling to - mafic Jun 3, 09:03 5
    - I have a propane fireplace in the living room that heats that quite competently but like you, bedrooms are always chilly.I *hate* my heat. -- nm - amanda Jun 3, 09:13 4

        Yeah, but my house was built in 1905, and it almost never drops below about 10C outside. - mafic Jun 3, 09:26 1
        
        I get the why of it, but still sounds like a nightmare. If I am cold, I want to switch the thermostat to "Heat" and be done with it. - Spawn Jun 3, 09:28
        
        in theory I have central heat. in practice it's forced hot air and I like my skin *and* my upstairs is converted loft space (so electric heat) - amanda Jun 3, 09:19
