I currently have 2 independent heating system in my house. Hydronic floor controled with Aube th-135 thermostat (24 volts) and a Lenox air handler with electric heat (forced air) controled by a Lenox Thermostat.
I've installed a zone controller (5 zones) and proper motorized damper on the Lenox unit so I can control heat in each room independently. Now I need to connect proper thermostat for each zones.
The Lenox thermostat have R G W1 and C wires connected to it.
The TH-135 are 24 volt 2 wires connected to them.
Can I use a single thermostat (RC-1000 or RC-2000) per zone to control temperature in way that the Radiant heat is the main heat source and the forced air would kick in a secondary heat source when needed?
If I understand properly, to connect these system in Omnistat 2 on their own, I would need to:
For Hydronic 24 volt: I would connect to W1 and C
For Forced air: I would connect R G W1 C. Later when I add Air conditioning it would connect to Y2.
To use a single thermostat per zone how would this be wired?
Can I connect the Radiant heat to W1 and the forced air to W2 but I would need to connect both to the same 24 volts transformer ??? Unless there is a way to use separate transformer with a single thermostat?
If I use a single tranformer, how to know if the transformer is sufficient for both system? The Lenox unit is equipped with a Basler Electric BE32263004 transfo (PRI 208/240 Sec 24V 70VA) the hydronic system have a RIB TR40VA022 (PRI 120 SEC 24volt)
On the hydronic system there are 10 Thermal Actuator with end switch 24 volts. their spect are as follow:
Opera. Volt: 24 volt
power cons. 2W
Switch-on: max 250mA
Micro Switch 14V / 0.5A
Protection IP54
Is it safe to say I can only use the transfo form the Lenox unit for both system?
