Why use Smart Controls and Valves?
Most of us are used to controlling the temperature of our homes with on/off timers and a single thermostat (generally in the hall), thereby setting a consistent temperature throughout the house. But this can waste energy. Do you find that you’re heating rooms that aren’t in use, or allowing the heating to come on when nobody is home?
The recent energy price hikes have made it even more important that we don’t waste money overheating empty rooms and contributing to a negative impact on the environment.
Technological advances now allow all of us to take far greater control of our energy spend by using affordable smart controls and radiator valves.

Often Asked Questions
- Heating and hot water schedules
- Adapt your heating to fit in with your routine
Central heating smart controls enable you to take complete control of your heating and hot water. The easy to use apps from Hive or Nest allow you to set on/off times to fit in with your work, holidays or ‘out and about’ times, saving you energy and money.
Yes, smart controls and radiator valves work together as the most cost effective way to control your energy usage and spend.
The most basic smart heating controls will set one temperature for your whole house. You can control this temperature from your app, but without thermostatic radiator valves, every room in the house will be warmed to this temperature. This isn’t always ideal for lesser used rooms and is wasteful of energy.
Yes! Save energy by investing in thermostatic radiator valves to control the temperature of individual rooms. Whilst it’s not a good idea to let unused rooms get really cold (which could cause damp problems), you don’t want radiators blasting out wasted heat.
A thermostatic valve can be set to an ideal temperature for the room. Available with vertical or horizontal mounting, smart radiator valves work with all standard radiators and are fitted onto thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs). Once fitted, you can manage the temperature of each room in your house via a smartphone app. Some smart heating control systems can also be controlled using voice commands through Alexa, Siri or Google.

Yes, but don’t just take our word for it! According to the Energy Saving Trust, you can look forward to saving money and reducing your impact on the environment by using smart technology.
And don’t forget, reducing the temperature on your thermostat by just 1 degree could save you up to £85 a year and shrink your home’s carbon dioxide emissions.
