Smart Thermostat in Widnes

Controlling the way your house is heated is among the better ways to reduce high-priced energy bills and leave you with more disposable income at the end of each and every month. Of course, 60% of your energy bill is from heating the house, so it's certainly an excellent place to begin.

With the right controls you'll have the ability to keep your home at a comfortable temperature, while at the same time not losing more money on fuel. You'll also be able to keep your house carbon dioxide emissions down too.

Fortunately, heating control systems can be used with any boiler, no matter what the model or even age. This suggests there's a saving to make should you go out there and get it.

By setting up a heating control system you can save in between £70 and £150 annually. Moreover there are plenty of CO2 emissions to be reduced too and you may cut between 310kg and 630kg each year.

Also look at the temperature you have your thermostat set on. By simply turning it down just one degree, you can save about £75 per year and won't feel a difference in temperature either.

can you use hive with an oil boiler?

Smart controls such as Hive are the next generation technology with more and more people now converting their houses into smart homes to control multiple devices in the homes remotely. Smart technology can be incorporated with several household devices such as security, lighting, entertainment and more. But what if there’s an oil boiler installed in your home, can you still connect your Hive with the your heating? Well, simply read on to find out.

The answer to this question is yes, most oil boilers are compatible with Hive and can substitute for either an existing conventional programmer or thermostat. The smart technology works to help derive more benefits from your heating system and they usually come with apps which can be used to control your home’s heating from anywhere with just your mobile device. Hive, however, cannot work to replace the functions of smart oil boiler heating controls to modulate your heating as they only work on an on or off basis. To make use of the modulating technology in an oil boiler, the cost of manufacture would be considerably higher while offering little advantage in efficiency for the home or property owner. Ultimately, this implies that you can’t incorporate smart technology to control the output in a similar way as a gas boiler, but there are still some ways to utilize smart technology with your oil boiler in such a way to boost your efficiency and lessen the energy bills.

Do you want to use your Hive with your home’s oil boiler? We’d advise you get in touch with an OFTEC qualified engineer if you wish to install Hive Active Heating on your oil boiler, as British Gas engineer do not offer this service.
