I need to fit a stat in the hallway since we currently don't have one and the house temperature plummets in the night due to the timer also being inadequate.
Our heating system in our previous house was configured perfectly to provide constant heating and timed water control, with the heating driven off the stat. When we went to bed, we'd set the stat to 18'C allowing the system to remain idle unless the temperature dropped below 18'. Rarely the heating would come on in the night, but when it did it ensured we didn't wake up to a freezing cold house in the morning that requires lots of gas to restore the house to room temperature.
So for me, installing a stat in this house is a no-brainer and will save us money in the long run. However, the current timer control installed at the moment looks pretty old. I am considering installing a wireless stat since that will be easiest with regards to training wiring around the house. Is it trivial to install? I have installed a heating control panel before to existing boiler wiring, but I don't really want to replace the control unit entirely since it still works fine.
I've tried looking for some installation guides, but no luck.
