Our verdict

Still the gold standard for true 12-zone UK heating, and the built-in evohome integration is actively maintained. But the £246 Base Pack is just the controller, relay box, stand and power supply — no TRVs included. Each extra zone needs an HR92 wireless radiator head at roughly £84, so a 4-5 zone house easily doubles the kit cost before fitting. It also needs a heating engineer to wire the relay box into the boiler and zone valves, not a weekend DIY job. Skip it for a flat or single-zone terrace; evohome earns its price on larger homes needing genuine per-room scheduling across 8-12 zones.

What can Home Assistant control on the Honeywell Home evohome Base Pack (ATP921R3100)?

ControlTypeWhat it does
Zone climate (up to 12)Climate entity per zoneTarget temperature per room
System modeService call (evohome.set_system_mode)Whole-house mode such as Auto or Away — the standard preset service doesn't reliably work here
Hot waterWater heater entityOn/off control for domestic hot water, if fitted

The system's climate entity for the controller itself has no real setpoint — HA fabricates one as the average of every zone's temperature, so don't automate off it directly. A confirmed open bug means once you set a non-default preset (e.g. Away) there's no way back to normal scheduling through the standard preset service — you have to call evohome.set_system_mode instead, which is also the entity worth automating: trigger a whole-house AutoWithEco setback across all 12 zones at once when the last person leaves, something only meaningful because evohome's controller genuinely governs every zone together.
